A knowledge of the sub jects and courses taught in high school was considered a necessity in days gone by, but now institutions of higher learning have superseded the high schools' as the final word in edu cation in the Secretary's opinion "College education in itself is not so priceless a possession as what the student receives from college in addi tion to what is taught in the class room," he he averred. "College is the I pio'ving ground of the citizens of to j morrow. It should teach students bow to apply themselves and limy to meet difficult situations If the col lege men and women of today incite the Ivaried experiences they should, the citizens of the future will have ironed out many of the hind knocks which they otherwise would meet."

"There is a constant need for scien tific conservation which looks beyond the present time into the future." Must Conserve Human Minds Secretary Davis declaied that the plan to augment the notate education courses in the public schools of the state With a special curriculum of conservation is of vital imlortance. The study of nature, he c,mttnued, should have a leading place on our schools "It puts the whole subject of con servation where it belongs, in the minds of our youths, foi it is to them that we must look for the con servation of tomoirov,," he declined Wo must make no mistake about the importance of the subject He who despoils nature shortens the tery lives of our people." "Wastage, whether mates sal in hu man," he concluded % "has a devaqa ting effect upon us It imams foi us to take the final physical, mental, and material worth."
