PAGE TEN TlfEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON. FRIDAY, MAT 30, 1941. EIGHTH GRADERS OF JACKSON CO. 300 in Ashland Program Dean Jewell Advises Work Hard at Favorite Activity "Pick out th thine you'd rather do than play and do it better than anyone else and you'll be one of the world's great men." Thli wai the way Dean J. R. Jewell of University of Oregon, epitomized his ad vice of 300 eighth grade grad uates of Jackson county who assembled at the Junior high school In Ashland yesterday morning to receive their dip lomas. The dean, often completing his thought with gestures car rying more meaning than words, dug back into the potato patch of his own boyhood for slmilles to drive home the point to his young listeners. He told of his dislike of hoe ing potatoes growing under clods in the corral under Kan sas heat, and of the Joy he found in digging a cave in the same heat, thus pointing to the, necessity of the individual do ing the thing he enjoys most Bameness Not Aim "Education in Oregon today Is not trying to make every body alike," he said. "It is helping to give every boy and girl chance to do better what is normally expected of him He told of his college roommate who persisted in whistling and was expelled, only to whistle his way. into the concert halls of Europe. The dean said he once expelled Bob Burns of radio fame from the University of Arkansas for not getting his lessons. The dean chose "The Elements of Success" as his topic, the same used by a United States senator at the time of the dean's own eighth grade graduation in Kansas. C. R. Bowman, county school superintendent, speaking briefly before presenting the diplomas, classified education in four di visions. First is the place of inquiring minds in the grade school, he said; next the ad venture In high school of find ing what one would rather do than play; third, specializing In college; and last, finding one self in life. Theo. J. Norby, superintend ent of schools In Ashland, deliv ered the address of welcome to the crowd filling the auditorium. Invocation was given by the Rev. J. R. Turnbull of the First Baptist church In Ashland, and the Rev. Geo. W. Bruce of the Ashland First Methodist church gave the benediction. Selections were rendered by the orchestra of the Rogue River high school, directed by Edward C. Root. Trio Outstanding.
