SUPERINTENDENT GIVES
SCHOOL WORK REVIEW
City Superintendent of , Schools L. R.
Alderman was the speaker at the Port
land Commercial club luncheon yester
day. Mr. Alderman gave a review of the
work of the public schools and pointed
out new features that have been added,
and. are to be added as soon as possible,
and urged every business man and
every citizen to take a more active part
in school matters.
"Wo believe that the things that 1
count are habits," said Mr. Alderman;
"and If good habits are established
during the school days, we will have
better men and better women. We are
controlled largely by habits, and hab
its are largely the determining factors
in life."
Industry he classified as one of the
most important of habits leading to
success.
Education without a purpose, he
pointed out as useless and a waste of
time.
Among new things to be taken up,
he said, is the enlargement of the scope
of studies for the purpose of ascertain
ing in what particular line the indi
vidual pupil Is most interested. This
accomplished, it will be possible to bet
ter specialize. He also gave it as his
opinion that primary grades should de
vote only half a day to studies. Chil
dren 6 or 1 years old, he said, learn
in half a day about all they can absorb
In a day.
. Under direction of F. . E. Chapman,
directdr of music of the public schools,
the Boys Glee club of the Lincoln high
school rendered several much enjoyed
four part songs.
PUBLIC DEFENDER IDEA
WINS HIS APPROVAL
Tji closing his two weeks' work as
public defender at the municipal court.
Attorney Kmil Nelson adds his approval-,
to the Huhenie started by Judge
8t venson, and says it should be per
manent. Only one man refused the
flee legal advis offered by the. at
torney. This man was arrested a sec
ond time within the two weeks.
"One prominent thing. emphasized bv
the work," says Attorney Nelson," is j
that more discretion should be used by !
the Officer in making arrests. Many j
cases are brought into court that could .
i easily be settled uport tne beat. This
would relieve the court, save the po- !
lice department much time and also be j
a saving to the city.
"I found mapy men had good legal j
defenses, but had no money with which !
to employ counsel. I consider it tho t
defender's business to nee that such de j
lenses are Drougni out in court; that
the defendant has a chance to tell his
. story, and tell the material points In
his favor. Much evidence gathered by
the prosecution Is heresay evidence. ;
s Beginning Monday, Attorney b.
HicVey will give his service to the
court as pu blip defender.
