Show HIGH SCHOOL IIJpiESS The Ogden high school is in readiness readi-ness to begin its work on Tuesday morning. The -attitude of the superintendent super-intendent of schools and the board of education In arranging the courGeB for the high school in order that a student may prepare for community and home life as "well as for college, is in lino with the general trend of education throughout our country The sole a(m of a high school a few years ago was to prepare for entrance to college, but since not more than about two per cent of the graduates of high schools over went through college, it seemed that the high school should stand for something some-thing else than a preparatory school. In order to fill its place as tho "People's "Peo-ple's College," "The Cpllegc of the Masses," a high school ought to offer tho kind of education that will quajlfy the masses to take their places in life. To thj8 end, cooking sowing, agriculture, carpentry, bookkeeping, shoithand, typewriting, etc., have been added and this without reducing, but rather adding to and strengthening strengthen-ing the other branches that have long been considered high school subjects sub-jects Excellent equipment has been provided In all of these' practical lines. Why should a girl bo compollod to worry herself sick over trigonometry while she Is In school and then worry wor-ry her husband sick after marriage through having taken trigonometry Instead In-stead of cooking? No argument can be produced that would Justify the elimination of the generally accepted studies, but there are a thousand arguments, ar-guments, also. In favor of practical subjects. With these new studies added to the high school it will be possible for a young man to become acquainted in a general way, with soils, horticulture, pests, such as Insects In-sects that destroy vegetation, dairying, dairy-ing, poultry, animal husbandry, carpentry, car-pentry, bookkeeping, typewriting, shorthand and for the girls" to become acquainted with sewing, cooking and any of tho subjects applicable to their work. At the same time they may, if their Inclination leads them, that way, pursue the scientific and classical subjects sub-jects The building Js adequate and the laboratories well equipped, and teach- Pr.q Whn aro clrillorl in tnoco llnne have been employed. The faculty of the high school is made up of men and women who have ta"koa their college col-lege degrees from the lending educh-tional educh-tional .institutions throughout the United States There is no reason, now, Tvhy a young man or a. younqf woman should havo to pay board and high tuition to go away from home to study domestic science, domestic art, agriculture or business college work. In all of these ,lines tho high Bchool provides thorough instruction, free. There Is no need for a young man or young -woman to pav out fifty or Hlxty dollars for a course in shorthand or bookkeeping, as it would bo difficult to find a more competent faculty In this line than the Ogden i high school has Eooks aro furnished at cost, and it would seem that there Is no need for a young person of ambition am-bition to go without an education in -" ?
