The Educational Problem Is Far Above the Plane of Mere Literacy By A. D. WEEKS, North Dakota Agricultural College. IN THESE days of curriculum changes much importance attaches to the principles governing the selection of subject-matter. The choice of studies and the selection of materials for incorporation in studies are matters of outstanding* significance, for the information which one secures goes far to determine his life; knowledge may be thought of as constituting an extension of powers such as might come with additional bodily organs. Recognition of the fundamental types of knowledge, economically considered, and of their bearing upon careers and democratic fulfillments must be accorded when curriculum revision is undertaken. Somehow the democratic ideal must be reflected in what the schools present as studies. To align the curriculum with the common welfare involves free access to the bask- forms of knowledge. Differentiation or deficient of curricula resulting u social disadvantage is inconsistent with democratic purpose. To train only to be a producer would be to promote a definitely stratified society. To limit access to the training of culture similarly fails of general welfare. To withhold the basic knowledge functioning in economic and civic relations likewise is inequitable. The effective citizen must have adequate knowledge of production, distribution, and consumption. Efficient production, just distribution, and wise consumption are essential features of a democratic society. The organization of a curriculum embodying the principles stated would necessitate a considerable addition of materials, especially in realistic economics. . . . Much of the traditional subject-matter of the high school would need to be discarded as functionally inert for any vital relation; new materials would have to be added, and time-honored subjects taken apart and reclassified for logic of program. . . . Today the exigencies of democracy raise the educational problem far above the plane of mere literacy, and the issue becomes one of the selection of materials of critical significance for social equilibrium. Noted ,English Portrait Painter Thinks Modern Girl Lovelier Than Her Predecessors SIR WILLIAM ORPEN, Noted English Painter. A year ago, when critics were telling the world how much it had deteriorated since the century before, I voiced the heresy that men and women were not only better-looking and therefore better-minded than they have ever been before, but that they were steadily improving. Every day confirms me in that belief. It is my business in life to study faces. It is also my lot in doing my job to get to know automatically what is in the mind behind the face, and I do not hesitate to say there is no such thing as real beauty of face without beauty of mind. And there is a lot of both kinds of beauty about today. Beauty is more than a regular bone structure covered with healthy flesh and skin, and whether a face is a fortune or not is always a hallmark. A criminal’s face proclaims his vice, whether he likes it or not, as clearly as an honest man’s proclaims his worth. This is no more a coincidence than the fact that pipe smokers from Mr. Baldwin down cannot keep a crease in their trousers. AU faces and all appearances are shaped through an attitude of mind. As you think so you become. When I see, therefore, better-looking men and women about me I know they are inspired with better thoughts and that these wifi be handed on to and multiplied in our great-grandchildren. The average of beauty is rising and it is rising because there is going on a steady rise in virtue. Ido not use the word in any priggish sense, but for want of a better term to describe the inherent decency of instinct and goodness of mind which are evident in. all around ufc. It may perhaps seem somewhat unfair to compare an outstanding beauty like Mrs. Siddons with the modern girl, but Miss 1925 does not suffer by comparison. Mrs. Siddons’ beauty was famous because beauty was rarer in her day. I can readily think of a dozen now who would outshine her. I see rivals for most of our canvas beauties daily. A Primary Motive in the Movement for Better Homes in America By JAMES FORD, Executive Director. A primary motive in the movement for Better Homes in America is to encourage instruction in home economics and home life in the public schools. The whole-hearted co-operation of the public schools in betterhomes demonstrations is clearly caused by a recognition on their part of their almost unique prerogative in educational extension for the raising of general standards of living. In the thousand-odd demonstrations of better homes conducted by local committees throughout the United States during the 1924 BetterHomes week, approximately one hundred school practice homes were opened to the public with appropriate lectures and demonstrations. In several hundred other communities, teachers co-operated in the program for better homes and pupils demonstrated the arts of cooking, table setting, bed-making, furnishing partially or completely rooms in the demonstration home. There can be no question of the pedagogical value of a school activity of this sort, which co-ordinates the work of many school grades and departments in an absorbing and vital enterprise for the service of the school and the community. Education Must Become the Directing Force in International Relations FANNIE FERN ANDREWS, Ph. D. Education is the road to better understanding between nations. Education, having developed greater international faith, will go far toward eliminating war in the future. We must train the youth of the whole world to regard citizenship as including world relationships and to realize that good citizenship involves good will among nations. No one nation can establish world comity, even though its national ideals include the obligations to treat other nations justly and 1 honorable. Thia is an international problem and must be solved consciously and with determination by international agreement Training youth is the function of education, and education must become a directing force in international relations if we can ever hope for a new attitude in world affairs. What lies in the future depends upon the youth of today. A new world could be made through a universal training of youth in the ideals of good comradeship and interdependence which will supplant selfish national aspirations with straightforward diplomacy. Education as an agency to promote world justice should be put to the actual test. The schools of all countries should mold the thought of the children to this vision. Dr. Ira W. Howerth, Educator—The true patriot is not merely he who will fight for his country against a foreign foe, but one who will work and fight, if med be, for his country against the misguided patriots who would sully our nation’s honor by a dishonorable deed.
