The porpose or aim of education |
has changed.
It is not simply a preparation of
the wealthy class for the enjoyment
of leisure; it is a preparation of all
men and women to render service to
mankind.
Perhaps the most common phrase free ajr and water service day
used to express its purpose is the I or njgbt.
two words: “Social Efficienncy”.
Education is becoming democratic
—adapted to the needs of the com-
mon people as well as the aristo-
cratic and leisire class; it is for the
poor boy as well as the rich; for the
ountry boy as well as the city boy. .
With this view there is required a
borader curriculum to meet the needs
of all classes, hand workers as well
as bami-workers.

our support is Consolidation

was estimated from thirty to thirty-

with every thing else good in pro-
portion. Brownsfield peon'e came
with 10.000 roasting ears which were
cooked in an enormous stock tank.
The meal was served in army style

Then some say that all that is in

We should abolish all the past, and

I think both are wrong.
I grant that some old things are
best.
Old whiskey—old violins; some old
pictures and old literature.
Our aged fathers and mothers are
not to be thrown in the discard just
because they are somewhat old-
fashioned and belong to the past.
But again, ome things deteriorate
with age. I do not like old milk or
cheese or stale bread. Old clothing is
often out of date—old automobiles,
old machinery, old farm methods, old
business methods must often be

science of medicine; a new method of
business; new metgods of farming,
of stock raising.

There is no New Education; but

300,000 Greek Peasants
to Get Seized Farms
New York.—It is estimated that
In all some 3,090,000 acres will be taken
from owners and given to peasants by
Greece under the new laws. The val-
ue of this land is said to be between
$22,000,000 and $33,000,000.
The number of peasants to be bene-
fited 1* estimated at 300,000, a large
number in a country with a population
of 5,000,000. The number of estates
to be expropriated is about 1,200.
Some of these embrace whole vil-
lage*.
Owners who are thus seeing their
land taken from them are for the most
part wealthy persons, though a few
are monasteries and municipalities,
and some of the land is owned by the
national government. Many monaster-
ies in Greece have clung tenaciously
to large estates from the middle ages.
Among the owners are many wealthy
and Influential Greeks. They have
done all they could to prevent the
expropriation.
