MAKING SCHOOL WORK INTERESTING.
JIany experiments are being discussed by. educators with the
iope of finding' some plan that will incite pupils to put their
.vhole heart into their work. A teacher who rect'iuly visited some
ichool.s exemplifying the new ideas, lias been telling . ome of our
eople of the experiments being attempted along this line. In
one school, she reports, the children seemed to have discarded
I .heir arithmetic textbooks to a large extent. Multiplication tables
ivcre being illustrated by playing ninepins. Each pin would be
i .narked with a numeral, say Keven. After they iiad knocked
,Jown six pins, they would add up six sevens, liy and by it oc
curred to them that they would better know for sure what six
I limes seven was, so they would not have to perform the sum in
.addition each time. Thus they got six times seven thoroughly
into their heads, and went on to learn other multiplications in
I similar ways. Also they practiced keeping a little store, and
buying and selling suposed articles figuring the cost of the same,
ifind interest on old dcbl3, etc. The teachers claimed that the
, pupils felt so much interest in these games that they put their
i heart into acquiring their arithmetic. The children had a tremcn
i dously alert appearance, and they seemed to be all bent on learn
ing. When the teacher went out, the room was not in an uproar,
:as it would have been years ago, but each child was industriously
: pursuing his task. There may be something in these methods.
: But many questioning people will ask if these children -would
I learn to concentrate on disagreeable tasks. Will they learn that
i there is a great deal of drudgery in life, when people must work
hard, regardless whether the job is pleasant or not? If school
' work is largely play, will they learn to work?
o
i WILL COLLEGE EDUCATION PAY?
Most of the colleges are reporting more applicants for en
trance than ever before. Many of them can not begin to find
room for all w ho wish to come. A multitude pf young people have
, cither acquired a thirst for knowledge, or what is more likely, they
have got it into their heads that college graduates make more
hwney. A lot of young folks are taking these courses who have
no special literary ability. Many come' just to have a good time,
many put their thought mostly on
sacrifices to put nil these young folks through a course that they
may not be specially adapted for. The question must arise wheth
er it is worth while for all these young people to take those costly
courses when so many of them
purposes of collegiate education.
ing, and is not grasping the ideas that a college tries to communi
cate, the quicker he is dropped the better. His lack of interest
must be a damage to the whole class room, and he $s acquiring
habits of dawdling and non-performance. Hut any young person
who, sincerely tries to make good nnd who has brains enough so
he can pass fairly strict tests, would apparently get benefit. At
any rate ho Is acquiring a lesson of thoroughness that will count
him well In after life. Such a student should learn truths out of
human history nnd exorience that will make him a better citizen
and so that he will not be fooled by visionary ideas an8 (uilf baked
philosophy. So college education is an ideal toward which any
ambitious young person may well aspire, but the colleges should
not tolerate students who fail to come up to a reasonable standard
of achievement. '. "-.

Library Fair Plans
Almost Complete
The merchants of Portland, who
know that every dollar invested In
a public library means money In
their pockets, have voluntecrd to
donate many things for the purpose
of increasing interest in the great
Community Fair to be held' in the
Armory on Thursday, Friday and
Saturday of next week. The Jantzen
Knitting Mills are sending a dozen
knit caps, the Corvallis Creamery
donates 10 pounds of butter and t-lso
buys three tickets, Lang and Co.
give. 100 pounds of mixed candy.
Swift and Co. offer two pound pails
of lard, the Vogan candy Co. will
enter the race as will the Crown
Flour Mills. Other merchants and
manufacturers are ready to help
with free offerings for the good
work. Our o-vn merchants have
been very liberal with donations and
ihe Country Store department ol the
Community Fair will be a big fea
ture. Big Scout Chief Llntott says he
will make some announcements next
week that will brim? every able
.bodied man to the big show on
Thursday nlsut. It Is understood
that one of the bo.'s will be tocomo
(latlng enough to break an arm or
stave In a couple of ribs on that
night so the other boys can show
how they treat injuries.
Wait for the big show before' buy
ing your winter bulbs and potted
" ants. The ladies will have a real
floral display nt the Fair and if you
want tulips, hyacinths, dahlias or
other bulls you can buy them at the
Hair for much less than the cata
logue prices.
Speaking of prices, It Is the In-,
tention of the promoters of the Fair
to sell all their goods at less than
they are listed on the market. This
Fair is not a hold-up scheme but
will prove a real benefit to those
who buy as well as those who at
tend for the fun there is in It. And
there will be lots of fun for every
body. Carload of New
Chevrolets Here
Glenn Taylor proprietor of the Ser
vice garage and agent for the Chev
rolet automobile, today received a
carload of the new 1'923 models.
These new cars are a great improve
ment over the older models from the
standpoint of body design, although
Ihe same standard engine and equip
ment remains unchanged. Several
additions however, have been made
to the equipment. Drum type head
lights with legal lenses have been
adtkfd. also vacuum feed with rear
gasoline tanks, curtains which open
with the doors, windshield wiper and
many other Improvements. In the
body d.slcn the streamline effect is
-""a out with the new type of
hmh hood, and crown fenders. The
new Chevrolet cars are lieauties and
In spite of the Improvements remain
at the same price.
