ROSEBURG, OREGON, ; STOPPING AT THE Out of 100 pupils entering; the fifth grade of the schools of the United States, 66 drop out during -the next three years. And 20 more drop out during the high school years, leaving only 14 to complete the high school course. And yst some folks think the younger generation is getting too much book learning. One half of the young people of this country have scarcely any knowledge of the history of the United States, or the duties of citizenship, and know mighty little about the rules of speech and arithmetic which are the tools they must handle in making their way. The majority ot these young folks probably drop out voluntarily, because they do not take easily to books, and have become discourag ed by inability to keep up. It should be some one's business in every city, when a boy or girl drops out too early, to visit such a pupil and his parents, and see if that youngster can't be persuaded to stick it out and become a real learner. An other .thing wrong with the American school system is that tie average daily attendance of pupils is only 79 percent. A factory where only 79 percent of the help showed up would have a tough job to turn out efficient production. The par . ents who tolerate needless absences are depriving their children of the education for which they are paying their good money in taxes. Lost time can not be made up. It is next to impossible for a student to do in one day the work ot two. He may commit the facts to memory of the lessons he has skipped, but the impressions of the school sessions and the suggestions of the teacher are missing. .' ' o ! A woman who has had much experience as a nurse and . in relieving suffering people, was asked the other day as to what is the greatest single cause of poverty. She replied ; 1int in her opinion it was the habit of drinking intoxicating liquor. It is one of the world's greatest tragedies, that in spite of the advice of moralists and preachers and doctors, a multitude of men continue to throw away their dollars and take the money that their wives and children need, and ; spend it on the curse of drink. It may be an old story and ; sound hackneyed and commonplace, but one can not always pass over such a condition in silence. We talk about govern ; riieut of the people and by the people and for the people, but L- a considerable portion of the people have not yet learned how : to' govern themselves. When our enthusiasts talk about : abolishing poverty by a fairer distribution of the rewards ot Industry, they forget about the many thousands who daily choose poverty for themselves and their families. o This country, owing to its inherent strength, can atford - to exercise moderation in the matter of armament for war, . as President Coolidge told a delegation of women a few da J ago. There are some who think this country can best avoid . war by having a military force so big that no one will dare attack us.' Such a plan, however, would not assure peace. Germany would have attacked France and Belgium Just the " seme in 1914, even if we had at that time the biggest arm- - anient in the world, and it is hard to see how the United I States could have kept out of the conflict. If the nations can ; arrange to cut down their armament by mutual agreement, ; they will gradually learn that the world can be ruled by mor ' al forces quite as well as by tho power of arms. PROF.
