HE STUDENT AND THE CONFERENCE ON ARMAMENTS
In his memorable Phi Beta Kappa address at Harvard Col
ege forty years ago Wendell Phillips brought serious indict-
Mnent against certain aspects of higher education in America.
lis topic was "The Scholar in a Republic."
.Citing the great crusade against , slavery, he scathingly
ileclaredi ','Amid thislattle of giants scholarship sat dumb for
hirfy yeara until imminent deadly peril convulsed it into action.
wind colleges, Jn their despair, gave to the army that help that
lhey naa refused to the market place and the rostrum." The
mrden of his great address, was this admonition: "I urge on
ollege-bred men that, as a class, they fail in republican duty
fclvhen they allow others -to lead in the agitation of the great
hucstions which stir and educate the age."
A writer In the Los Angeles Times remarks that the great
'Agitator'.' wodld find a marked difference if he could revisit
Hhe American colleges after forty years. The scholar has been
Tiwaking to his responsibility and his matchless opportunity in
the American republic. . "
I No cvent has given such impetus to this tendency as the
.world war and the great events flowing from it.
A significant illustration of this m current history, which is
ikely to have consequences of the most far-reaching character,
;i found in the intercollegiate conference of Princeton univer
sity on the limitation of armaments. Between thirty and forty
iolleges and universities accepted Princeton Vinvitation to send
delegates to this unique gathering. '
j Princeton has received congratulations on "having the pre
vision to hold such a conference. Among those who have
I xpressed hearty, approbation are President Alderman of the
j University of Virginia, President Harry A. Garfield of William
1 College," President W. JL P. Fatmce of Brown and President
:i I. P.- Judson of the 'University of Chicago,
j j Among those taking prominent part in this conference we
ij find the names of President Hibben and Prof. "Kemmerer of
Princeton University, President Frank J. Gopdnow of Johns
j jlopkins University, Col. D'Olier and Dr. Vernon Kellogg, well
j inown as director of the American Commission for Relief in
j Belgium. ' ' "
f Thus we 'witness an illustration of the fact, which is more
"ind moreclcarly emerging, that the traditional chasm between
1 he academic and real life is rapidly being bridged. Indeed,
ihe alleged gulf that -separates' the university from practical
iealitjr has already become for the most part a mere phantom.
M6re and more is it becoming recognized that higher education
1 ind all education must serve the common good. Nothing short
I )f the genera! welfare is-a sufficient; goal for the development
i jf our. educational institutions in the; American republic.

The Belle Pass! school district
near WOodburn is the latest
school to make arrangements by
which chifdren may have hot
lnnches during the noon hour.
?The mothers of children in the
district, assisted by the teacher,
Miss Louretta, Kramer, decided
that a warm luncheon, or at least
some warm food for. the noon
hour would: be about the right
thing; Hence, they have worked
out a plan by which, the children
pay 25 cents a month towards the
luncheon land the directors of the
district, apportion about $75 for
the school year to help cover any
deficiency. :
The plan is that each of the 21
pupils bring his or her luncheon,
but that 1 something warm be
served with It. Some days it
may , be hot beans, another day
hot potatoes, then again hot soup
or hot chocolate. Each of the
pupils has furnished some of the
tableware or cooking utensiU.
Each day two of the girls take
charge of the cooking in addition
to taking care of their regular
school work. Miss Kramer does
the planning and the girls have
the advantage of doing domestic,
science work that U really 'prac
tical. Other rural districts that have
adopted the plan of serving at
teast ;one hot food for "the noon
hour. Include Gervals. Manning
school, Donald and Pleasant
Point. Reports are that other
district are planning to. work
along the same idea.

den rise of water as getweeo Sat

during the 24 hours, the ris was

INTERESTING TALKS
HEARD BY TEACHERS
(Continued from page l.)
Dr. Sisson declared that the
school is coming closer and closer
10 the real activities of life. Dr.
Sisson spoke again during the af
ternoon session on "High School
Curriculum," when he declared
that too much attention was given
to English, mathematics and for
eign languages, rather than to the
general sciences and . practical
studies of life.
Prof. H. S. Tuttle of Pacific
University spoke during the mor
ning session on "Discipline as
Moral Training." and in the after
noon on ; "It Takes Two to Tell
the Truth."
For disobedient pupils he ad
vocated fsolation, as this menaa of
punishment would bring home ti
them the harm they had done
and how their actions might have
interfered with the general dis
cipline.
Words Should be Used
In his afternoon address Pro
fessor Tuttle advocated teaching
of the meaning of words by prac
tical use and not entirely by the
use of the dictionary. He illus
trated his talk with work he had
done in several grades, showing
how young pupils could, demon
strate the meaning of certain
words, rather than giving a dic
tionary meaning.
This morning the session will
begin promptly at 9 o'clock.
Elizabeth M. Hopper is on the
program for an address on "The
Three H's in School Life." Dr.
E. O. Sisson will talk on "The
Political Aims of Education." The
remainder of the morning will be
devoted to general school discua-
sions.
Public Invnted
This afternoon Thomas Gentle
will speak on a subject to be se
lected. At 4 o'clock Dr. Sisson
will speak on "The Final Test of
Method."
While all sessions are, of
bourse, of special interest to the
teachers, Mrs. M. L. Fulkerson.
