SP 2-4830 MAIL TRIBUNE TPnitpcirairiri In the United States, education is a "secular religion" according to Paul Pickrel, book editor of Harper's maga zine. Writing in the January issue, Mr. Pickrei reviews a group of books on education and in a preface, does a bit of analytical thinking about education in this country. Because of the separation of church and state, Mr. Pickrel believes that our school system, probably uncon sciously, "has come to perform, or try to perform, many of the functions that religious institutions perform in other societies." He speaks of the big games, homecomings, and parades which he says is an "attempt to fill the need for symbolism, for magnificence and tradition, in a society with few official occasions for either carnival, or ceremony." The writer also believes that our schools have many other char acteristics which are more appropriate for religious insti tutions ,sa conviction that they must be all things to all men, for instance, and a reluctance to excommunicate." We don't entirely agree with Mr. Pickrel in this, but do agree on another statement, that whenever anything arises to put America's destiny in question, the schools are immediately blamed for it, and then "counted on to correct it after it has." We found the following sentences particularly inter esting: A public school has little power, for instance, to inculcate a greater respect for learning and intelligence than the community as a whole really feels ... in general we are simply deluding ourselves if we expect our schools to maintain standards that the community as a whole has abandoned or never held." A letter from the Chester Parkers, Phoenix couple spend ing the winter in southern California, came from Aqua Caliente Springs, in Desert State park. The Parkers wrote that they were staying in a big trailer park which accom modates more than a hundred trailers and for which they pay only $10 a month rental. "The place is surrounded with mountains, brush and sand no telephone, no TV or elec tricity, but plenty of water" said the letter. The Parkers added that it hadn't rained a drop since they arrived at the park, and that they planned to remain until the first of Feb Calendars, it seems, aren't just a useful way of knowing what day it is. Their real purpose is to show daily the dif ference between the way of life and prospects for the future in East and West. At least that's what some East German Communists believe. News releases from Berlin last week told how a Communist newspaper demanded an investigation of the calendar industry which was described as a hotbed of reaction. The Communists charged that calendars devote too much attention to the days, weeks and months of the year and not enough to party doctrine; they sneak. in capitalistic prop aganda and western scenery. Calendars tell East Germans what day Easter and Good - Friday and Palm Sunday fall on, but not the anniversary of "the glorious Soviet October Revolution." Neues Deutschland, official party newspaper, criticized calendar pictures as decadent middle class arts in stead of "fighting socialist Wonder what Neues Deutschland editors would say about some of the calendar States. Mrs. Roland Holmes did last meeting of McLoughlin Junior High School PTA, when parents and teachers discussed dren of junior high age. Mrs. Holmes' story was printed in last Sunday's issue, and we recommend it for parent reading. Some might be surprised to find that for the most part, the students and the parents agreed on such matters as when to start dating, "going steady," hours to come home from dates and parties, and other problems for young sters of junior high and high part in the discussion said cause the young people feel they must follow "fads" in order to conform and be popular. Going steady, a major problem in many families, was said to be in this category. It was thought that going steady started among college age students and then gradually worked its level. Most parents expressed is undesirable and should be Students clarified the matter somewhat by saying that going steady" doesn't mean to students what it does to parents., pne said "You give a girl you like a chain or bracelet to let her know you like her, and in two or three days she gives it back to you. That's how long we go steady." O.S. TV mEDFOftO ' tJMi nut r" t " - 'V ; i . m.: .-".-'.-I V f -4 . . . , '!
