MINSTREL SHOW A SUCCESS.
• "Goderich, May 23, 1930.
"Editor, Seaforth News, — At a
meeting of the Lions Club here on
Wednesday evening last a resolution
was unanimously passed that a vote
of thanks be tendered the press for
the splendid assistance which they
gave in connection with advertising
the.. Minstrel Show which was held"in
Goderich recently under the auspices
of the l'oc'al branch of the Lions Club
in aid of the crippled children of the
County of 'Huron, I have been in-
structed to write you on behalf of the
Club and extend to you our apprecia-
tion of your co-operation and our
hearty thanks for the assistance you
have rendered. We feel that a good
deal of the success of the wholeven-
ture was due to the splendid advertis-
ing the campaign received. You may
be interested to know that our net
proceeds realized from the show are
approximately $1,125.00. — Goderich
Lions Clt,b"
The magnificent support accorded
by all citizens of the county to the.
Seaforth and Goderich Lion's Club's
in their work on behalf of the ,.crippl-
ed children of Huron, surely is one of
the best answers to the pessimist Who
unceasingly bemoans this day and
generation.' The people of Harron are
ever ready to respond when a cause
is worthy.
The Lions Clubs have proved that
first-class entertainment can be pro-
vided and at the same time have the
profits go to much needed benefits in
the community, rather than to the
coffers of non phllanRt'hrogic organiza-
tions in distant cities, -
CHATS ON EDUCATION
At the'Principal's Desk.
A Scotch friend of mine a few years
ago married a very vivacious and at-
tractive
young lady who was fond of
good time's and good clothes. When
her husband suggested, as 'a Scotc'h-
rnan could hardly help `Suggesting,
thin they ought to try to save some.
of -their income, she asked, "'Save?
What for? I will save when' I' have
something to save for, but I am not
going to save for nothing."
The logic was hardly comprehen-
sible to a Scoitc'hman yet the logic is
very human and after aril ,wh'a't is real-
ly human is normal. The blind im-
pulse to save without any .purpose but
saving is What makes the miser, one
of the most miserable and pitiable" of
human 'beings.
The human mind when asked to
master any subject asks 'What for?"
The more directly that subject is re-
lated
ela ed to tho wants of lifet e moz
e
eagerly will the •mind engage it, the
more readily master it, and the great-
er the vigor and power the mind will
develop in the task.
It does make a difference how
things are taught. How little four-
year-old
ouryear old Billy will struggle to master
a few letters in order that he may
write a labored note to his Daddy
away from home ! (How different in
interest is this experience from the.
ex'perien'ce in school when he maybe
set to' copy someone else's fetter to
nobody he knows anything about in
order to learn to write 1 In the one
case learning to write is the means
to the much desired end of express-
ing himself to someone he loves. In
the other case the learning is the end;
an end that in itself does not appeal
President Glenn Frank of Wiscon-
sin University recently wrote: "We
are beginning to rediscover what`our
ancient ancestors knew very well,
namely that the major part of a man's
education comes from living in so-
ciety rather than from learning in
school. This would suggest to us
that we should narrow the chasm
which yawns between the life of the
school and the school of life."
Each normal child desires to be
useful, and to live with people. As
boys .and girls approach edolesence
this desire to be useful in a way that
will enable thein to earn a living and
take a respected ‘place in the com-
munity becomes constantly stronger.
But this desire needs to be fed with
information about occupations which
in this country we are so far making
little effort to supply.
The vocational schools are filling a
real need in this direction.•In the
vocational schools, when *ell equipp-
ed. pupils have some opportunity to
sample typical bits of work related to
various vocations, and as Dr. A. C.
MacKay, Supervising Principal of the
Toronto Technical 'Schools has ob-
served, in a great many cases this op-
portunity enables boys and girls to
discover their own tastes and apti-
tudes and so find vocations to which
they are suited.
In some of the States a definite
course of occupational studies, is a
partof the work of the Junior High
School and serves an important pur-
pose in helping pupils to discover
something of their own likes and dis-
likes,
islikes, and at the same time helping
them to see the bearing and value of
the various studies offered in the High
School courses.
Some of us have enough of a Scotch
inheritance to love to accumulate
money or knowledge without any im-
mediate or definite purpose in so do-
ing. We may find that in the odd day
of leisure we have great resources of
entertainment trying to set our men-
tal junk rooms in order and sorting
and appraising our accumulations.
Yet those who collect either informa-
tion or things with definite purpose
are apt to live the more efficient lives,
and in the case of knowledge the pur-
pose should be a conscious purpose,
intelligently shared by' the pupil if the
pttpil's
