s f THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, : PORTLAND, THURSDAY EVENING,. FEBRUARY. 25, 1915. I Club ActivitievS' Educational Ideals Pat and Present "KducationaJ Ideals. Past and Pres ent" was the-topic f a very interest ing address delivered recently by As sistant Superintendent D. A. A, Grout at a meeting of the Buckinan Parent Teacher association when "home com ing" day was celebrated. Mr. Grout : Mid In part: V" "In the oM days we laid great stress Upon mental alertness. There were .many exercises whose sole purpose ' was to develop ability to think quickly and grasp new situations intelligently. . In mathematics and language expres- slon, either oral or written, our ob jectives . were accuracy and speed. Much time was given to developing a! ' . j er with ' many special exercises and dlscus slons en what constitutes true patriot ism. Every .effort was made to teach the boys and girls to be independent and self .reliant. There were, also, a few beginnings in concrete instruction. These were, however, restricted to what could be done within the class loom. While there 1 now no doubt but that we made too much of books, tio one has any reason today to be ashamed of the men and women who ' were children in school then. "The education of any period should fit the needs of its own generation. Today vocational training has laid bold of the Imagination of the people as no other program in education has ever done. "The task of developing and perfect ing a system of vocational education Is the most difficult problem In all the history of education. Everyone is cer tain that something should be done, but no one Is very sure Just what or how or how much to do. There art. many plans and suggestions and ex periments and out of these true prog ress will come. Any comprehensive scheme 'must include, trade ami com merce, the industries and agriculture. Portland is making a very creditable ; showing in this direction. "The property capital of the country : Is being and has been abundantly de veloped. The human capital the character, brains and muscle of tho people is, it has. been' estimated, five a times the value of all other resources "combined. In developing our physical resources, we have done the little (thing, relatively; the really great thing the development of our human capital remains to be much more fu-liy done. That this will be done goes without saying, f jir the home, th school, society and the state are co operating as never before. V . Musical Entertainment.

' Frightened tnd breathless, running with all his might froto Shadow the Weasel, Happy Jack Squirrel was in despair. He didn't know what to do or where to go The last time be had ran from Shadow he had ran to Farm er Brown's Boy, who bad just hap pened to be near, and Farmer Brown's Boy had chased Shadow the Weasel away. But now it was too early in the morning for him to expect to meet Farmer Brown's Boy. In fact jolly, round, red Mr. Sun? bad hardly kicked his bedclothes off yet. and Happy Jack was very sure that Farm er Brown's Boy was still asleep. Now most of us are creatures of habit. We dothe things that we have been In the habit of doing, and do it without thinking anything about it. That is why good habits are such a blessing. Happy Jack Squirrel is just like the rest of us. He has habits, both good and bad. Of late he had been in the habit of getting his break fast at Farmer Brown's house every morning. So now, when he began to run from Shadow the Weasel, he just naturally ran in the direction of of Farmer Brown's house from force of habit. In fact he was half way there before he realized in which di rection he was running. Right then a thought came to him. It gave him a wee bit of hope and seemed to help him run just a little faster. If the window of Farmer Brown's Boy's room Was open he would run in there and perhaps Shad ow the Weasel wouldn't dare to fol low. How he did hope that window would be open! He knew that it was his only chance. He wasn't quite sure that it really was a chance, for Shad ow is such a bold fellow that he might not be afraid to follow him right in. but it was worth trying. Along the stone wall beside the Old Orchard raced Happy Jack to the door yard of Farmer Brown, and after him ran Shadow the Weasel, and Shadow looked as if he were enjoying himself. No doubt he was. He knew Just as well as Happy Jack did that there was small chance of meeting Farmer Brown's Boy so early in the morning, so he felt very sure how that chase was going to end, and that when it did end he would breakfast on squirrel. By the time Happy Jack reached the dooryard Shadow was only a few jumps behind him and Happy Jack was pretty well out of breath. He didn't stop to look to see if the way was clear. There wasn't time for that. Besides, there could be no great er danger in front than was almost at his heels. So without looking one way or another he scampered across the dooryard and up the big maple tree close to the house. Shadow the Wea sel was surprised. He had not dreamed that Happy Jack would come' over here. But Shadow is a bold fellow, and it made little difference to him where Happy Jack went. At least that is what he thought. So he followed Happy Jack across the dooryard and up the maple tree. FREE DELIVERIES TO ALL PARTS OF THE CITY phoa '.-13 FREE Generous Sample of "Bronclilyptus" for Coughs and Colds.

IJoy.I Along the stone wall raced Happy Jack to the door yard of Farmer Brown. He took his time about it, for he knew by the way Happy Jack bad run that he was pretty nearly at the end of his strength. "He never'll get out of this tree," thought Shadow as he started to climb it. He fully expected to find Happy Jack fuddled in a miserable little heap somewhere near the top. Just imagine how surprised he was when he discovered that Happy Jack wasn't to be seen. He rubbed his an gry little red eyes, and they grew angrier and redder than before. "Must be a hollow up here some where," he muttered. "I'll Ju3t fol low the scent of his feet and that will lead me to him." But when that scent led him out' on a branch, the tip of which brushed against Farmer Brown's house. Shad ow got another surprise. There was no sign of Happy Jack. He couldn't have reached the roof. There was no place he could have fone unless Shadow stared across at a window which was open about two Inches. "He couldn't have!" muttered Shad ow. "He wouldn't dare! He couldn't have!" But Happy Jack had. Hexhad gone inside that window. Next story: "Farmer Brown's Boy Wakes With a Start.". NATIONAL GUARD NOTES Outside Companies to Be In spected During Coining Week.
