THE ST. HELENS ROLL OF HONOR
On Saturday afternoon when the City of
Fortlaml gracefully slipped into the waters of
the Columbia, a new epoch was marked in the
history of shipbuilding on the l'acitic Coast,
and the big little city of St. Helens came into
such prominence as she has not heretofore
had. To have built the largest single deck
wooden vessel alloat, the largest motor vessel
constructed in the United States, and to have
it launched without a hitch, is a feat that the
city might well feel proud of. The building of
the City of Portland was undertaken when the
financial condition of the country was none too
good, and the proper credit must be given to
the Chas. R. McCormick Co., the promoters
of the venture. Putt there are others to be
considered, and they are the people who, when
an opportunity was offered them to partici
pate m the venture, realizing the .stability of
the investment, and the advantages that would
come to St. Helens by reason of the building
of this noble vessel, came forward willingly
and invested their hard-earned savings with
every confidence in the integrity of those who
would handle the vessel, liy participating in
the building of the City of Portland, these
citizens, in addition to making an investment
which promises large returns, have aided in
making St. Helens known from coast to
coast as the shipbuilding city of the Pacific
Coast, have aided in the development of an
enterprise which will be the means of further
upbuilding of the city and have aided the com
pany who has done so much towards making
the city of St. Helens a city of recognized im
portance. All honor to them, may their in
vestment prove a wise one, and may the
example they have set be emulated by other
citizens of Oregon. Long tloat the good ship
City of Portland, and may she carry the pro
ducts of the Columbia river to ports far
beyond the rim of our own sunset sea.

CARRY THE SCHOOLS TO THE CHILD
REN The following article by O. II. Benson of
the United States Department of Agriculture,
Washington, IJ. C,, and which appears in the
April 6 issue of the Journal of Education, is
the most appropriate we have read for some
time :.
"For a number of years the State Colleges
of Agriculture have been promoting, in a very
definite way, a system of extension education,
and most of them have had an extension serv
ice or a department of extension education,
whose business it has been to formulate sys
tems, methods, agencies and organizations for
the purpose of taking to the farmers, farmers'
wives andHhe boys and girls of the state, the
benefits of the College of Agriculture, Experi
ment Station, the findings of laboratory work,
and in general, to translate the theories of
textbooks and educators of these institutions
into terms of common practice.
"Until recently it had not occurred to our
educators that it is just as possible for the
universities, normal schools, high schools and
rural schools to have their extension service,
and, by a well-planned and organized system,
carry from these institutions to the people at
large, by means of itinerant teachers, demon
strations, field meetings, business demonstra
tions, lectures, movable schools and the like,
all of the benefits formerly available only to
those who would come after it and enroll in
the institution for a definite period.
"All who have considered seriously, and in
terms of life itself, the educational problem of
recent years, are agreed that no school can
properly serve the people, or perform its
proper functions by simply confining its activ
ities to within four walls of the school room,
the laboratory or the classroom. The insti
tutions today that are giving notable service,
and that are looked upon as worthy of emu
lation, are the institutions which have learned
that the school district or the state is its cam
pus, that the people, both resident and non
resident, constitute its student body, and that
the efficiency of an institution is now to be
measured by its ability, not only to train lead
ers from within the institution, but to train
leaders from without, and lift all the people
to a higher level, The entire patronizing
community be it local, state or national in its
nrea, should lie affected.
"This viewpoint contemplates two very
definite systems of education. The first sys
tem j's the resident, commonly known as
school or college teaching, Its methods, agen
cies, organizations aiid results, in a very large
measure, arc the same as they were years ago,
excepting, of course, that they arc adjusted
to meet the needs of the times and the new
conditions. The second is the extension edu
cation, which reipiiics (iiile a different
method, special agencies, diiTcrent organiza
tions, and the results in a very large wav will
be different from the results obtained from in
struction at the school or college,
"As a part of this work of extension edu
cation, we have what is commonly known as
the P-ovs' ami Girls' Club or Extension Work
in agriculture and home economics for the
boys and girls.
"The best possible credit that a boy or girl
may receive from club work is the education,
experience, health and conservation value, to
gether with the blessings of the out-of-doors
and the net profit for investment. It is uiv
opinion that these credits are sufficient, as far
as the bovs and girls are concerned, but 1 be
lieve that it will be worth while for the school
to express itself in a tangible wav in connec
tion with this work. If the school can oiler
substantial credit or recognition in this type
of extension work, it will do the school and
the school curriculum more good than it will
the home work and bovs and girls engaged
in it.
"If the school and teacher will extend
school values to the homes, farms, backyards
and kitchens, by means of club project work,
whether bv means of corn, poultry or canning
projects, it will be an easy matter to bridge
the gulf now existing between the two insti
tutions: and when the school has thus taken
the necessary step, it will not be difficult to
bring the parents ami people into the school,
first by way of expressed interest and iiiipiirv.
ami later by personal visits, helpful service and
definite sympathy and co-operation.
"The teacher who waits for the home to
come to the school first, before the work of
co-operation is started, is the teacher who
will be disappointed. If there is no oilier
reason for the creation of the Hoys' and Girls'
Club work than merely furnishing an agency
for the building up of a co-operative spirit and
condition of helpfulness and understanding
between the school and home, it will serve the
community and is worth all it costs us in
monev, time and leadership,
"The club work of boys and girls is based
upon definite home projects, liy means of
group organizations of bovs and' girls it will
offer opportunities for the development of lo
cal leadership, reinforced educational work,
and through the club plan it gives a sustaining
and reinforced value to the individual mem
bers in carrying on this particular home work.
"Team work is the thing that counts in all
of the enterprises of life."

PRESENT
HUGHES' POSITION ON
ISSUES
In the discussions of the availabil'iy
justice Hughes as a Republican candi late for
president, much has been said of the lack oi
knowledge of his position on the poii'.ical
(piestions now at issue. Justice Hughes lias
been a member of the supreme court since
110 and during this time he has bet ii .le
barred by the traditions of his high office iioiii
public utterances upon political, and particu
larly partisan, subjects. Xor has the present
consideration of his name in connection with
the presidency drawn from him any statement
of his views, publicly or privately. I'.ut ;!u
records of his political activity during tne
years in which he was free, and'in duty bound,
to discuss such subjects, reveal his attitude
toward current issues as clearly as if he were
speaking now, says the Globe-Democrat
How does Hughes stand on preparedness r
is naturally the first question asked, it b.-ii;g
uppermost in the minds of the people, lie
answered that question in the campaign i f
l'A)X when he said : "It is our constant aim in
live in friendship with all nations and to realize
the aims of a free government, secure from the
interruptions of strife and the wastes of war.
It is entirely consistent with these aims, am1
it is our duty to make adequate provision f"
our defense and to maintain the efficiency ,!
our army and navy. And this I favor." In
the light of that time he could hardly have
said more. That, with this attitude in 191 IX,
he could now be for anything less than a full
and altogether sufficient preparation for events
that later developments have made possible,
is unbelieveable. Justice Hughes' mind is not
of the weather-cock type. On the contrary,
such criticism as has been voiced, has been
against his firmness and tenacity of opinion.
Justice Hughes is strongly in favor of pro
tection. "A protective tariff," he said in l'JOS.
"is essential to the interests of our wage
earners," and he urged at that time the ap
pointment of a tariff commission, "in order to
effect whatever readjustment may be neces
sary to make the tariff schedules consistent
with the principles underlying the protective
policy." In the same campaign, referring to
foreign affairs, he said: "The Republican
party has maintained the national honor, and
under its direction American diplomacy has
attained the highest levels of honorable pur
pose and distinguished achievement."
From such utterances as these, when go--ernor
of Xew York, it is not difficult to discern
the present views of the justice of the supra, e
court.
The "Ancient Mariner" would think a ship
a hoodoo were it christened with water or
other "stuff." Superstition is firmly fixed in
the sailor heart and it was in keeping with
their desires that a bottle of champagne was
used as the City of Portland glided into the
water. 'J emperance organizations have made
an effort to banish the christening of ships
with wine or other liquor, but without success
The liquor used Saturday was as cfl'oct nail y
destroyed as if done by the order of court or
Hi Gill. Many of the witnesses thought it a
willful waste of liquor and wondered how it
was smuggled in.
Abolition of capital punishment in Massa
chusetts is advocated by Governor McCall in
a special message to the senate.
