HIGH SCHOOL BILL
- PASSED BY SENATORS
(CvnUnnad from 1) .
swer to' Mr. Clark that he believed
"that when we learn arithmetic,
the adding machines will loose
many of their operators." Answer
ing the statement that , a ' great
deal of memorization work is re
quired In ' the high . school course
In literature and English, Senator
Miller, said he knew of many stu
dents who applied for entrance in
to college, who could not decently
read the selections that were re
quired for memory work, "As far
as knowing the sense of the ar
ticle, they were in total ignorance.
They could not even parse a sen
tence. ; "
- Much Good in Coarse
' Hrhere la much we cannot dis
pense with in the high school
coarse," Senator Miller, stated,
"but there is a great deal of room
for" improvement. Students who
cannot spell, read, or punctuate,
should' not be permitted to take
other studies comprising what is
known as "higher education.' The
fundamentals! are what we -want.
Other things may come after, but
we must have a ground work on
which to build. The high school
course must be -shorn of many , of
these mental calesthentlcs that be
come humorous when. considered
seriously The difficulty is that
physics and chemistry and higher
mathematics Is taught, and at the
same time, the student does pot
understand the fundamentals of
thought and expression. I am in
favor of this bill. It should pass,
in order that we may go forward
in fundamental principles." i
Garland Speaks
, Senator Garland, following Sen
ator Miller on the floor, expressed
himself along the same lines, stat
ing that ("the present system of
sducation was made for the teach
er who Is a genius, and the child
who is a1 prodigy." -
In the j final ballot on the bill,
the only senators casting a nega
tlre vote were Clark, Cor bet t. Hall,
Klepper, Strayer, and Upton. Sen
ator Strayer explained his vote in
a secret message handed to the
president :, , .', - ; '
In introducing the bill for final
passage," Senator Eddy made one
ot the most Impressive speeches
ever heard en the senate floor. 'I
have ' been - called an ignoramus
and a clodhopper by some of the
school teachers and principals, hut
I defy those same people to sit
down In 'my study with me, and
read the Greek testament in the
original, f I have been termed pld
fashioned, and have been called
a moss-back for rfghnng to retain
the old fundamental principles; In
our schools. I want to tell you,
senators, the so-called "intelligen-
sia will bring about the downfall
of our whole school system.
"If my boy or girl is to imbibe
socialism communism, or any
other hellish Msm from the pit,
they will have to get it from some
other sourse than the high school.
if I have -the power to keep them
out of the schools. We do not
want, the works of the socialistic
HGi. Wells, or Scott Nearing, nor
the fatalistic Jack London taught
to our children. ' i
"What we want to do, lg to
scour out of the curriculum cer
tain trash, which is not trash fun
damentally, but is trash because it
is taught so superficially that it
only gives a smattering of knowl
edge, and in no way trains the
mind." j '.'",TH
In the; nominating session, Sen
ate Joint Resolution No. 13 by
Senators! Strayer, Stapleton, and
Brown was introduced. ! This res
olution would greatly simplify the
