T he Standard
G uage in Education
The American people * pride
themselves on their educational
system, as shown in the abund­
ant provision made by the state
for the education of its youth,
and the encouragement it affords
to all individual efforts along this
line. The American people as a
whole are alive to the importance
of education, but are they alive
to its full signification?
One of the best definitions of
education describes i t a s “ the
drawing out of the character,
manhood and personality.”
To many the process of educa­
tion means more the tramming
in rather than the drawing out,
which process an eminent Eng­
lish educator, compared to the
forcible feeding of the Strasburg
g e e s e developing abnormally
their livers to make a delicacy for
a gourmand.
Education is what the word
signifies, a development of that
which is contained within.
The education of t h e c h i 1 d
comprises the drawing out of all
the |H)ssibilities and powers of
his organism. He is potentially
a man and his education must be
designed according to the full
measure of a man.
The full measure of a man
comprehends the essential compo­
nent parts of his constitution in
. body, mind and spirit. Educa­
tion has to do with all these and
in all periods of his life, child­
hood, youth and manhood.
A n d throughout a 11 these
periods there is but one standard
guage. “ the measure of a man.”
The educator then should have
a profound understanding of
human nature, and a clear con­
ception of its true ideal, other­
wise he will do more harm than
good.
He must recognize that he is
training neither animats nor
angels, but men in the making,
and keep this fact constantly in
mind.
A new party has been formed
by a section of the socialists and
has filed certificates of nomina­
tion and acceptance for its can­
didates for office. It will appear
on the ballot as the Industrial
Labor P a r t y . Among Oregon
candidates is the name of Upton
A. Upton of Estacada for secre­
tary of state. For president it
has nominated William W. Cox
of Missouri and August Gilhaus
of New York for vice-president.
Its predominate p l a n k is the
abolition of wage slavery.
Advertisers and Subscibers
Please Take Notice
As an instance of the critical
condition of the publishing busi­
ness. the quarterly bill for news­
print paper received is 90% high­
er than a year ago. As we have
not raised our rates for adver­
tisements or subscriptions, some­
thing must be done or we cannot
afford to continue to publish the
N ews .
The state editorial as­
sociation has issued a price scale
for advertising which it consid­
ers to be right and fair under
present prices for work and ma­
terials. According to this sched­
ule, papers like the N e w s should
charge 20 cents an inch, whereas
our rate is only 15 cents. We
have thought the matter over,
and concluded to stop a few
leaks before before raising ratee.
Heretofore we have not charged
our regular advertisers for the
extra issue when five came in a
month. In this way they each
received four weeks advertising
free in the year. After this
month, we shall discontinue the
practice and charge for each is­
sue. Nor can we afford to carry
our subscribers indefinitely. We
have just notified a number who
are some months in arrears, and
others are requested to look at
their address tags and it their
time is up to renew please or
else promptly notify this office to
discontinue.
