BIBLICAL DRAMA IS TO BE GIVEN AT BAPTIST CHURCH student Make Muat N ow Hr Able to Hand« Perform What Brain Suggrot* Education has progressed from the lumbering gait of the ox team to the speed of the gear shift car during toe lifetime of Dean J. R. Jewell, member of the faculty of Oregon state college in the voca tional education department, v*hu addressed the chamber of com merce luncheon Tuesday. Educa tion week was being observed. Dean Jewell described education when he was a boy, when the pupil who learned the multiplication tables, could spell and had memor ized various points in geography was an educational person. He compared this with education of the present day when the success ful practitioner of hi« boyhood days, who was successful in guess ing what was wrong with his pa tients, has been superseded by the practitioner who sometimes spends more time in making certain whnt is wrong than he doe« in treating the complaint. “This is a day,” the dean said, “when the hands must be able to do what the brain wants to do. Education is no longer education unless it can be put to use. Going to college for social purposes >i«t« busi- the pupil nowhere. Great nesaes are offering more free scholarships in the sciences than there are pupils qualified to accept them. Colleges have everything that the student «hould need so far as education is concerned—thing« that those who were students 5u years ago never dreamed would ever be taught in college. All there things cost money, they require the payment of taxes I spent many years of my life in a state that had a low tax rate by the sacrifice o* things that we of Oregon believe our children should have. I never want to live again in a state with a low tax rate.” Music Lovers of City Organize Choral Society A choral society was organized Tuesday night at a meeting held ui the auditorium of the high school.
