Commencement Lesson
A business man past middle age.
whose children had all gradua el
long since from high school, lei
occasion to attend some school
commencements this spring. 110
faced the ordeal with dread and
boredom because he had no inti-
mate interest. He came out of. it
an enthusiast for the modern pub-
lic school and its graduates. "
ilc- recounted his experience
something after this fashion:
' “I don't know what it is, but
these kids have got something we
didn't have when I graduated. or
my children when they graduated.
Perhaps they haven’t any finer
ltll‘iilhi, but somehow they know
better how to fit them to their
everyday life. They are readier
to begin real living than boys and
girls were in my day. Their ed-
ucation is really a tool. They
know what it is for and are ready
to use it‘.
“The classes were dressed bet-
ter. too, more appropriately, and
the speakers were more at ease.
The speeches wcre better. They
were shorter and had more punch,
and by George, they were inter-
osting ! ("an you beat that?
And when the teachers got up to
address the kids, you could see
that they were nearer to them
thnn our teachers, save with now
and then an exception, were to us.
'l‘heir talks weren't so prosy or
pedantic. and there wasn’t any of
that high-flown sentimental bunk.
“I tell you, the schools are bet-
ter, and the children are getting
'1 better education. and so they are
better. I‘ve had my times of
thinking maybe too much money
was being spent on the schools,
too many frills and all that. But
not any more. It was just because
I didn't know what was going on.
Now I’m a fan for the schools and
.the kids. And I don 't feel half
so worried about what the world
is coming to, since I see how much
better fitted these kids are to take
up its problems than my genera—
tion was.”
It. is only one man’s opinion, but
it fairly represents the opinion of
the average person who makes a
real contact with the schools. It
is a pity that our school exercises
are not more widely attended.
Friends and relatives know-what
the schools are‘ doing. It is those
need to learn. -

Champion Milkmald
At an interstate milking contest
between representatives from.
Missouri and Kansas, the other
day, 'Elsie Krasney, 19-year-old
'Kansas girl, won. In the two min-
,utes allotted, she filled her pail
with good rich milk, extracted
frlom bossy by the old hand meth-
or.
In these days of dancing mara-
thons this may seem like a very
‘prosaic sort of contest, but at
least it has some constructive
mesh. ‘ The ability to milk swiftly
and cleanly is no small‘ accom-
plishment, and it is not any too
common. , “
In addition to her skill with. her
hands, the young Kansasfcbatlh
_ pion uses her head. She toId're4
grinders after” her ‘trium’ph, aw;
«- ave ten cows at. home, and I milk
half of them every day. And it
may be old-fashioned, but I think
country girls should stay on the
farm. I would rather be a good
farmer’s wife than ,anything
else.” If any dancing marathon
wmner has said anything as
wholesome and sensible, it has es~
caped publication.
To be sure, the milking contest
' was one of skill, and not of en-
durance, but the little milkmaid
has all the best of it. Her dexteri-
ty and sound philosophy will
serve her to good purpose .for
many years, while the, , on .

Greenwich Village has more ghosts
than any other section of New York.
They're not cctoplastlc ghosts. not the
Conan Doyle kind.
. In our best literary circles thv are
the people whose profession is known
as "ghoating"—that is. a struggling
author hiring himself out at so much
per word to write a book for some-
body else. to sign his name to. They
have come into fashion with the urge
that has recently attacked about one
in ten to write a book. Inciting tech-
nique or patience. anybody with the
price can hire a Greenwich Village
ghost to do the Job. ,
