Editorial Notes and Clipping LIVING AND MAKING A LIVING The Kingston Standard says it is becoming more and more evident every day that if you want to become rich the thing to do is not to bother getting an education, but to go in for baseball early in life, become a great player and then in a few years retire from business loaded down with honors, emol- uments and coin of the realm. Our contemporary concedes that the baseball man who draws a salary of ten thousand DAILY EDITION a living, then it is possible that a good many children are wast- ing time at school, when they ought to be learning baseball, or hockey, or prizefighting, or studying the market reports; but if at least a part of the purpose of education is to make men and women and to enable them to make life live- able for themselves and others, then it may be that there is still something to be said in favor of school education. Just now there is consider- able confusion as to the mean- ing and purpose of schoo! edu- a year, plus a share of the net cation; and in view of the ten-}|fmoney. receipts, must be worth the] dency to judge the value off They argued also that there money or he would not get it,}] school education by the con-|Should be a government tele- for baseball is played on busi- tents of the phone system over the whole pay envelope, a strong argument might be ad- vanced in favor of baseball and hockey. But it is still pos- Sible to raise the question if the making of a living is the chief purpose of life. For, after all, there is a difference between living’ and making a ness principles these days; still, it points out that there are some pretty good school teachers, some pretty good clergymen, lawyers and even editors who do not haul down the shekels as the baseball players do, or even as the hockey players do. What then? Is education a failure? This can scarcely be said, for the successful base- ball player today is the result of a long and arduous course living. The world is full of ex- amples of people whuv are emi- nently successful in making a living, but who make very little out of life for all that. On the other hand, examples are not of education—in baseball. Few wanting of people who have professional men are more] not been conspicuously suc- thoroughly educated along par- eessful in work of making a ticular lines than the success- living, but who have managed ful baseball player is—in base- to live more fully, more hu- ball. Is it school education manly and more satisfactorily that is at fault? If so, why that many of their neighbors not add baseball to the schoo! curriculum? The tendency to- day is to make school education who judge success by a differ- ent standard.
