Kedrlck, superintendent of schools, was the principal speaker of yesterday's meeting of the Medford Rotary club, which was attended by a large group of local and visiting Rotartans and guests. Professor Hedrick gave a splendid address on "Education, bringing out many Interesting facts and figures to substantiate his statements. "What Is the function of education?" was answered by the speaker, who gave the seven csrdlnal alms of education which have been prepared by the leading educators and statesmen of the nation. These alms were enu merated as follows: 1. To teach and promote health. a. To train for worthy bom mem bership. 8. To give pupils command of the fundamental processes of learning, lnclualng reading, writing, spelling, arithmetic, bow to study, habits of work, etc. 4. To lay a basis for vocational training. ft. To prepare pupils for citizenship duties. 0. To train pupils for wise use of leisure time. 7. To build ethical character. Prof. Hedrick analyzed each of the above alms and told his hearers why they formed the basis for the mod' era curriculum In the schools. In speaking of the teaching of health, he cited figures showing that life ex- pectancy In the time of George Wash ington wss 35 years and 100 years later had Increased to only 43 years, However, In 1B90 health education was Instituted In the schools and In only 10 years the expected span of life Increased to 40, in 1890 It was M, In 1930, 156, and In 1031 life ex pectancy reached a record figure of 58. The fallacy that business supports education was exploded by the speak er, who showed that education sup ports business, through knowledge of higher standards of living and In creased, earning power. An educated person Is a better customer, accord ing to Prof. Hedrick, who drew a striking comparison of an American citizen 'with a Chinese coolie to Illus trate his point. Education costs must be reduced alonff with cost of doing business. stated the speaker, citing a number of instances where substantial sav ings have already been made In the local schools. , It Is expected that only $179,000 will be raised by taxes this year as compared with $264,000 last year, which means a, reduction of seven or eight mills In the school tax, according to Superintendent Hedrick. . Glenn Smith, chairman of yester day's program, announced an open forum on the subject of education for next week's meeting, at which time a- general discussion will be held. Visiting Rotarlans at the session were O. A. Allen of Tacoma, Clayton Long of Cor vol Us and Chas. Cooley of Grants Pass. Guests Included A. Nash of San Francisco, J. H. Cooley of Medford and A.
