Show BALANCED EDUCATION Eighty-two boys in the graduating class of the Jefferson High school in Portland, earned $64,383.50 during their, high school course, the average for the class of 93 being $692.50. One boy, Neil Bodey, earned $2,280. The girls earned an average of $71.05, with 48 girls collecting $8,454.60; and Alma Lorenz earned $500. The nature of the jobs indicates that the present generation is not drifting too far into "white-collar" preference. Almost every industry, in-dustry, however hard or hand-soiling, was represented. Education should make a man better qualified for citizenship, for enjoyment, for trust, because of his better balance and his wider vision; it should not take from him the basic principles of faithfulness faithful-ness to his job, whatever it is. |
