best high schools in the land?
Marshfield is abundantly ablo to
aflord this institution, which, in time,
will repay Us cost a hundred fold.
Since it must coruo sometime, since
the start for the betterment of school
facilities Is now to bo mdae citizens
of Marshfield, you who have sons and
daughters needing its benefits havo
seo tho need of aught beside a good i it now, take a step that will count
grammar school. Soon the rude
awakening will come and she will re
gret her sleep. Her school facilities
are excellent as far as they go, but
they neither begin soon enough nor
extend far enough to bo thoroughly
modern. Wo are assured of a fully
equipped high school, which will bo
provided with a corps of efficient
trachers and a much moro extensive
course of study. This should Includo
higher mathematics, n thorough
toward .the fuller education 1 No
time is as good as the present, and a
henrty effort in the right direction
will accomplish wonders. Then,
Marshfield, take your placo among
modern cities of progress, and prove
that neither the will nor tho way Is
wanting!
In conclusion; briefly, my sugges
tions are these. Establish a kinder
garten for our little folks. If nvother
grammar school is needed, erect it

tho prize is won by a girl, Miss Helen
Bradley.
The Times Is pleased to present its
readers herewith a copy of the prize-
winning essay, "How to Improve
Marshfleld's Educational Facilities,"
awarded first placo by tho judges In
high school?
A manual training high school Is
not theoretic, it is intensely practical,
and has been so demonstrated. In
these days there is great specializa
tion of work. A man's genius in one
direction is cultivated and furnishes
hib trade, or shapes his career. The
manual training high school uncovers
this genius or talent and shapes and
directs it. A poor boy with talent
may lack the means to make of hlm-
Training High School, provided with
capable teachers whoso salaries will
bo sufficient to ensure their perman
ent attachment to tho school.' If this
cr-nnot bo done immediately build a
six-room high school with suitable
provision for its enlargement when
tho manual becomes practical.

the Seymour Bell contest. The ar- self a skilled workman. The school
tide is not only a well written liter
ary production, but is a thoughtful
and ably presented discussion of an
Important and always Interesting
subject. In view of tho approach
ing election In Marshfield on the
question of a $50,000 bond issue for
a now high school, it is particularly
appropriate and timely. The article
-will be found well worth reading,
and in some respects remarkable
when considered as the production of
a young girl only in her teens.
Marshfield and Coos Bay may well be
proud of Miss Helen Bradley. In
spiration and helpful suggestion are
happily blended in her thoughtful
thesis. The following is tho article
in full:
Mow to Improve the School Facilities
Of Mnrslilleld.
I take as a premise that tho sub
ject of this essay is not limited In
tlmo to tho present, and also that it
dees not include material advantages,
such as buildings or sites, which,
therefore, I shall omit, but rather
the instruction given and the means
of Imparting it.
A complete educational system em
braces four branches tho kinder
garten, the grammar school, tho high
school, and tho university. Of theso,
Marshfield has an excellent grammar
school, and as tho college Is beyond
tho scope of this artielo, only tho
kindergarten and tho high school re
main to be discussed.
The kindergarten confers a three
fold benefit, early discipline, a lovo of
the beautiful, and application. Hero
tho young children havo a second
home, their natural lovo and appre
ciation of tho beautiful and good are
cultivated, their good traits are de
veloped, they are kept busy, aud
above all, they nro gontly disciplined
and taught to respect authority and
to ba obedient, without tho strain ot
actual work. They learn tho lessons
of order and politeness which servo
them woll in later life. They nro
taught to amuse and busy themselves
valuablo lessons to young and rest
less children.

provides him with this and he follows
tho bent of his taste and learns his
tiadc, carrying It on at the same time
with his academic course. This is
only one instance of the practicability
of tho Manual Training High School.
It Is, as the word "manual" means,
o school in which manual training i3
done, wherein Its pupils are taught
to work with their hands.
Mechanical and free-hand drawing,
wood-working, carving, carpentry,
turning, forging, mechanics, mechani
cal and civil engineering, and all
branches of electricity are taught the
boys. Departments In sewing, cook
ing, millinery, house-keeping, draw
ing and music are furnished the girls.
Could anything be more useful and
beneficial than thus putting in the
way of our boys and girls the solid
means of a livelihood, or, at least,

A benefit that cannot fall to appeal
to parents and guardians is tho fact
that the manual training high school
will create ten times the amount of
interest that is taken in tho present
school work, and will be the much
needed stimulus to school spirit.
Boys who otherwise would leave
school and spend their tlmo on the
streets, will take an active interest in
their studies on account of the vari
ety offered, and will find their ambi
tions stimulated by preparation for
useful occupation later on.
It Marshfield intends ever to be
come a city of the world, of educated
men and women, It must not lack tho
means to educate Its boys and girls.
Years ago cities of tho East adopted
tho kindergarten and tho Manual
Training High School and tho results
aro manifest. Tho growing West
must hurry to follow their example,
and not let Its dormant talents rust
oi die unused.
It must bo borno In mind that this
more modern school does not do away
with tho regulnr high school work.
On tho contrary, it broadens and
surpasses it by adding other and
equally important branches of learn
ing to tho former ones. Instruction
