In the news columns today is carried file report «of the increase in registration at the Normal School. Approximately fifteen more students have enrolled for the second term than had signified their intention ot attending Oregon’s newest school, last September. ' This should be cause for rejoicing among those who are interested in the success of the institution. However there is more real cause for a feeling of exultation, when it is known that the majority of this increase has keen occasioned by boys entering the school. ' , There is serious need for more men in school work. We do not have figures to show the exact ratio of boys as compared to girls in the grado schools today, but we are of the opinion that they are about equally divided. When the boy reaches about the fifth grade he assumes an attitude of -his own. He has problems of his own. His life is beginning to shape itself. He has some ambition. He probably wants to emulate the policeman who has been unusually kind to him, or he has some other hero that occupies a secret shrine in his boyish heart. The person that he comes in direct, contact with the most outside of his home, is the teacher at school. Nine times ont of ten, it is a wom an, She may be au excellent -teacher, have— a wonderful training, ability to impart her know­ ledge to her pupils, but being a woman it is mighty hard for her to really understand a boy’s problems, to gain his confidence, and to assist* him either in the enlarging of that secret shrine, which often enough he does not even allow his best boy friend in on, or in destroying' the fase god of his boyish immagination, and rebuilding in' its place* a xnoro worthy one. With more men becoming interested in school work, boys problems will be more easily solved, new ambitions will be kindled, and the result will be that more boys will receive a higher education, and become better fitted for their life’s work. The Normal School, is doing well when they encourage the enroUtaeut^dh men students, this step on their part will be far reaching in its bene­ fits. We should like to see more boys become In­ terested in the school and the training that is there A Market For Morals ▲ few weeks ago “ Judge” ran a highly imagin­ ative and fantastic fairy story intended only to add to the gaiety of humor-enjoying readers. For sheer foolishment the statement was added: “ If you must know the moral of this tale send 10 cents in cash (no stmaps accepted) to” specifying a post office box in Leavenworth, Kan., which happened to be­ long to a branch of the Ku Klux Kian. Much to the mystification of local Kian officials, dimes began to pour into their mail box, accom­ panied with requests for the moral of the story. After several hundred letters had come, one arrived which contained a clipping of the story, thus ending the mystery for the Kian. The dimes and requests are now puzzling the editors of “ Judge” not -a little. It looks like a good joke on somebody and cer­ tainly indicates an undreamed of interest in morals, even at ten cents each.
