LIONS MEET HOTEL
High School Students Assist In Ed
ucational Week Observance;
Klver Work Cited.
Foreseeing great changes in the
country's educational system in
the next decade as an "idealist and
visionary," Mrs. Lucy E. Rodgers,
county school superintendent, de
picted what she believed to be the
trend of these changes before the
Lions club Monday noon luncheon.
Her address was given in honor of
National Education week, being ob
served throughout the nation this
week. Appearing on the program
also in behalf of the club's observ
ance of the week were Doris All
stott, Lorena Wilson and Billy
Schwarz, three high school students
whose offerings gave a cross sec
tion of work in the English de
partment The Lions met for the first time
in their new luncheon quarters at
Hotel Heppner, and appreciation
of the services of the hostelry were
expressed on every hand by the
members. Some fun was afforded
by F. A. McMahon, state police of
ficer, putting members in "irons"
at the direction of C. J. D. Bauman,
president. Estes Morton was tail
twister pro tem, due to the absence
of the regular tailtwister, Earl Es
kelson, out of town on an elk hunt
ing expedition. J. D. Cash, Boy
Scout executive committee chair
man, told Lions of the purpose of
Scout Days, Nov. 13-15.
S. E. Notson told of the recent
meeting of the Inland Waterways
association at Walla Walla, at
which was launched an intensive
drive for funds with which to gath
er data on the production of the
country tributary to the Columbia
river with which to convince the ad
ministration of the advisability of
constructing the Umatilla rapids
dam as the next step in develop
ment of the river. The association
we a advised that now Is the time
to strike hard while a sympathetic
administration is in power. Mor
row county's quota was set at $500,
he said.
Following is the text of Mrs. Rod
ger's address:
I am somewhat of an idealist and
a visionary but nevertheless I be
lieve that our educational system
is due for great changes during the
next decade. This year marks the
100th anniversary of our Oregon
schools. Just 100 years ago Solo
mon Howard Smith instituted the
first school near Champoeg. This
was a private school or rather the
parents sending their children were
required to pay for the privilege.
not by a tax upon their property,
but by just giving what was stip
ulated to the teacher outright. This
year also marks the 300th anniver
sary of the beginning of our high
schools. The first school held in
Morrow county was in the Petteys
home near lone. Many changes
have taken place since these begin
nings. Trends In modern education seem
to indicate a number of changes
that may reasohably be expected in
the not too far distant future.
I beieve we can expect for a few
years an even more critical atti
tude by the public toward our
schools than we are experiencing
at the present. From 1900 to 1929
during that wave of general pros
perity, people clamored for more
education and there was a period
that witnessed an extensive build
ing program. Districts were bond
ed for thousands of dollars. Elab
orate buildings were erected that
are still unpaid for. The interest
on these bonds amounts to thous
ands of dollars annually. Then
came the 1929 crash with the fol
lowing years of failures, unrest, and
unemployment.
People, unhappy and distressed,
began to Inquire what caused It all.
Bankers were asked what had be
come of the peoples' money, public
ofllcials were censored because the
laws had not been enforced and be
cause better laws for the protec
tion of the rights of the people had
not been made. The schools were
criticised and still are, for not hav
ing taught bankers and politicians
to be honest and socially minded,
for not teaching us all to be more
prudent in the management of our
own affairs, for not preparing us to
better meet the distressing prob
lems confronting us. Whether the
schools deserve It or not they are
getting and I believe will continue
to get a great deal of criticism from
a compluining, Irritable, critical and
Investigating public.
But we are already on the way to
a more socialized curriculum, a
program that will be more con
cerned with the adjustment of the
individual to the economic, social
and spiritual environment. This
new program will not be so con
cerned with filling the mind of the
pupil with the accumulated know
ledge of past ages. It will be de
voted to the development of the
whole child, mentally, morally, phy
sically, emotionally, socially, and
spiritually. It will be a program
