WHY KIDS GO TO SCHOOL.
(Corvallis Gazette-Times.)
Jn the past month we presume
twenty mothers and fathers have
complained to this colm concerning
the ‘'activities” the pupils have
to indulge in. One man told us
Friday that his son had spent so
n uch time this year in operettas
¡and other fool outside adjuncts that
he hadn’t had time to learn any
lessons.
I Several mothers have complained
thut the cost of wardrobes for op
erettas ha8 been prohibitive. One
mother hud to take her children
out of some of the sidelines because
she couldn’t afford the expense.
This broke the children’s hearts
because ' 'the other children had
costumes.”
Another one complains that her
daughter gets up about twice a
week at 6 o’clock and goes to the
college to play tennis "for wrhich
she gets some credit towards gradu
ation.” Feature that!
“If she
does any studying at night, be
tween operettas, plays, class din
ners, circuses, track meets, societies
and other bunk, it makes it too
early for her to get up and get the
sleep she ought to have.”
Another man has told us that he
offered to bet one of the teachers
that he could tuke 20 of her dullest
pupils and put them under a teach
or who was directed to teach them
straight stuff instead of monkey

Certainly he wouldn’t expect to
be able to coax kids to go to col

they had held out to them the
allurement of being able to learn
in which side of the plate to put

function, unless they were led to
believe that putting on social pol

were sororities and fraternities in
which membership is more import

Colin
Dyment,
recently
dis
charged from a high position with
the university of Oregon under
circumstances which do no credit
to the board of regents, has said
that he does not wish to go back
onto the faculty because he is not
satisfied with what kids are getting
out of college. But what. Dyment
rays should have little weight.. He
is a former metropolitan newspa
perman and altogether too practical
for these hifalutin days.
Of course there are college stu
dents—a fairly large number—who
take college work seriously, who
go there for the purpose of learn
ing something, who do learn some
thing, but they will have no chance
in the world against those who
passed high grades in social polish,
proficiency with the racquet and
nimbleness at track meets.

It Pays to Watch Your Step When
You Buy Balloons
Unknown brands are risky ‘•bargains” in any type of tire—but
especially so with Balloons.
Balloons work at lower pressures. They’ve got to be flexible,
And it takes good material and the highest degree of inanufac-
turing skill to combine flexibility with strength in a tire carcass.
Pathfinder Balloons are made and guaranteed by the world’s
largest manufacturer of quality tires. They’re a safe and sane
solution to your equipment problems AT A MIGHTY LOW
