2 Q12 64. Joe R. Craw, Superintendent of City Schools GRIMEY SAYS, lT'S Tl-IE To cause youth to live more fully is the aim of the public education. Youth can live more fully only in the degree that he canbe useful to his fellow men. The personal value of any person is not measured by his physical composition but in accordance with the unique contribution which he makes during his time. All types and classes of folk can be measured by this formula. Every girl and every boy in every class' room situation must be given the opportunity of equality of growth. Each is a unit unto himself which must be cultivated and trained with a definite goal of good citizenship-of ability to live in our democratic state. Let us train the child! Basic training should include moral eduf cation which determines the stamina and en' durance of any people. Qur laxity as a nation morally must be overcome if we are to mainf tain our rightful place among the nations. Workfexperience in every area of a child's training is necessary. A progress of work to' ward a successful culmination of a project P ge Twelve gives that feeling of accomplishment which is necessary to the natural, normal growth of any child. In English the telling of a story, in math the finding of a square root, in Indus' trial Arts the constructing of model planes, in home making the baking of a pan of light rolls are all practical experiences. These and many more under the direction of sympathetic teachers help high school folk to build up projf ect after project of work success. The educational program of guiding the student into the channels for which he is best suited in abilities and aptitudes is still in its infancy. Guidance programs and guidance personnel are just beginning to be a functional part of every educational center. We have been sluggish in the entire realm of human relationships. Let us view the child in the light of his many potentialities against the background of opportunities which our age and the incoming age afford, and from that location work to' ward his ultimate goal of usefulness.
