Crosley Discusses Relation
Of State and Education

TUESDAY, MAY 29, 1934

Student Commencement Speakers

Member Dept. of Public Instruction
Addresses Graduating Students
D. E. Crosley, State Deputy of Education, in addressing the members
of the Senior Class at the commencement exercises on Tuesday morning.
May 29, declared that education is a
state function. Without public education no government can long endure.
In Pennsylvania from the earliest
days the question of popular education has received careful consideration. William Penn received his Charter from the King of England in
1681; he came to Pennsylvania in
1682 and in the following year the
Colonial Assembly enacted a law requiring instruction fov all of the childven so that they should be able to
read and write before they attained
the age of twelve years. By 1775
there were primitive elementary
schools practically everywhere in
Pennsylvania, but there was nothing
to suggest the idea of a public school
system. As early as 1794 a committee of legislation presented a report
favoring a State-wide system of free
elementary schools. A law was enacted in 1809, which in its essentials
furnished whatever provisions existed
relative to elementavy education to
the passage of the Free School Act in
1834. The establishing of free schools
in Pennsylvania was the culmination
of a century and a half of upward
struggle on the part of a people exhibiting at times an intelligence far
beyond their day, but on the whole
reflecting the social aspirations of the
peviod.
Mr. Crosley said that evidences of
Pennsylvania's efforts to meet its obligation for public education are
found in the School Laws passed by
the General Assembly and by the appropriations made by that body.
Within recent yeavs the State's financial contvibutions for public schools
have incveased many fold. For the
year ending July, 1922, school districts received from the State approximately $13,000,000. In 1932,
the amount was $32,645,000. The
State aid in 1922 was $8.90 per pupil.
In 1932 it exceeded $19.00 per pupil
Continuing, Mr. Crosley stated that
the education of one hundved years
ago had its foundation built on the
traditional Three R's of Education—
readin', 'vitin', 'rithmetic. Today, as
we face away from the depression towavd a New Deal and a Squave Deal,
we vevy much need to consider the
Three R's of School Recovery—restoration of ouv complete educational

First Senior Banquet is
Held Monday, Class Day

Monday, May 28, was set aside as
Senior Class Day. Activities began at
10.30 o'clock in the movning when a
mountain ash was planted on the
front campus by senior members of
the Naturalist Club. Carolyn Laye
gave the tree ovation and a poem was
read by Mary Hill. William Statler
was in chavge of the exevcises.
In the afternoon the class met in
the auditorium for class day exevcises. John Marshall as president of
the class gave an address. The letters
were pvesented to the senior basketball, football, and track men, and to
seniov niembers of the Women's Athletic Association. Announcement was
made of the class gift, a handsome
clock, which was hung in the reading
room of the library.
A skit prepared by a committee of seniors was then pvesented.
Music was furnished by the college
orchestra.
At six o'clock the seniors assembled
in the New Fallon Hotel for the anJUNE BREINING

the seniors and their guests, there
were present the college president,

Misses Breining and Duhart Address
Seniors at Commencement Exercises
As the chosen representative of the
fouv-year seniors, June Breining presented the vital problem facing her
classmates—their position in the economic world—"The Challenge of a
New Era." She interpreted their attitude toward the economic conditions.
In the next few weeks many graduates of high schools and colleges will
be thrown into a chaotic condition
which cannot provide positions for
them. Previously there was more assurance of either obtaining a position
or building an independent business.
Today, however, opportunity is closed
to us and the sympathy of our elders
is justifled.
But we do not want their sympathy. We are glad to be living in this
period which seems to us to be the
beginning of a new era and a new
culture and not the end of progress.
Miss Breining compared the present
generation with the colonial pioneers
in theiv effovts to create a new social
world. The latter's effort was expended toward material success which
was achieved. The most important
contribution of our rration to civilization is the high standavd of living
which our wealth has made possible
for the common people.
It is natural to wovk for the thing
which gives us most satisfaction. Unconsciously we have worshipped the
god, money, with a resulting subtle
but insistent degeneration. Standards
of moral living have been questioned,
the home has lost its integrity and
strength as an educational center.
This degeneracy was not apparent
while our natural resources lasted but
rugged individualism was bound to;

that has through many things—some
say misinterpretation of democracy
and capitalism—been thrown over the
world. Since the dawn of civilization
the world has regularly sunk deep
into the trough. Each time civilization
sank almost from sight; struggled
upward to light and then fell again,
pushed downward by some ununderstood fovce. As time went on and civilization grew stronger, the struggle
grew less severe. Each time civilization sunk less and has risen farther.
The graduate is sure that he can
help solve problems. He does not pretend to know all the reasons of depressions, the correct ratio for armament, what Japan will do, if the Russian experiment will be successful,
what the Roosevelt administration
will lead to, the best ways to promote
world peace. He knows that he can
and will think for himself and act in
the wisest way. Using Plato's deflnition he will not be a slave—he will
not accept any man's motive for his
conduct without thoroughly questioning the motive. In school, the senior
did not accept rules without questioning them—if he thought the rule unjust, he set about in a fair wSy to
have the rule modified ov repealed.
"Out in the world" he does not intend to sit still and watch the world
go by. If the Repvesentative to Congvess is not the best and fairest man,
he intends to do all he can to help
the condition. If, as before the World
War, countries seek to draw his country into war, he will scrutinize the
motive behind the plea—he will not
let his emotions rule him.
He sees that democracy has not
failed but has failed to function to
its fullest degree. The graduate who
is to be a teacher knows that in him
and the many others, the success of
democracy lies. He knows that without variation he must teach in the
way that his students will be truly
democratic human beings.

William Andevson, a member of
the Junior class, will be the editorin-chief of the College Times staff

public school situation during these
trying times. The experience that
Pennsylvania has had during the one
hundred years of free public school
system reassures us when we consider
economic crises. In 1837 when there
was a severe panic in the United
.States, the free schools were in their
infancy but county after county
adopted the plan and there was a
steady growth in the number of pupils attending the free public schools.
In 1857 when there was another flnancial panic, the first State normal
schools were established, the State
Department of Public Instruction was
organized under the State Superintendent, and the office of County Superintendent of Schools was continued. In 1873 the pvesent State Constitution was adopted and in that there
was inserted a clause that provides
that the State has responsibility in
maintaining a public school system.

With Apology
Aftev more ov less tvouble, and
from the staff's point of view, great
tribulations, the current volume is
about to be bound. The delays that
have been encountered this year are
legion. First the inability of the staff
to irrake up pages because of a dearth
of photographs caused a delay of
over a month in sending material to
the printers. Following that the cover
manufacturer had trouble with his
colovs. Thus, on May 24, our badly
delayed book was still waiting for her
stveet suit of mavoon and gvay.
Even with all of those misfortunes
our little lady has assured the inquiring editov that she is very anxious to
arrive on ouv faiv campus.
Duving the last mad moments of
getting herself born she had the surprising experience of arriving in Lock
Haven about 10 o'clock one movning
in pvoof form. Then the rush began.
Quickly the capable hands of Miss
Mabel-Louise Arey, Marion Francisco, and your honest scribe and editor
grasped her limp form as quick eyes
darted around for errors or mistakes.
That evening our heroine was in the
hands of our postoffice department,
being rapidly wafted towards Williamspovt and the Grit offlce.
After all of her experiences she
should be a very interesting book for
each of us to own. We, the staff, are
sorry you who will have gone home
before the book arrives and will have
to receive yours from the postman,
but still that will be one more experience for your book.

In Last Chapel Program The Association of Childhood Education, after a school year of endeavoring, has earned and paid the one
hundved dollars agreed upon toward
the publication of the Childhood Education Bulletin. The bulletin was
written, edited, and published by the
Association. It has been widely distributed among Pennsylvania alumnae and many prominent educators of
the country, who are generous in
their commendation of the edition
and the wovk of the student group responsible. These necessary moneymaking activities included the sale of
"hot dogs" at the football games and
cider at the basketball games. These
sales were undev the direction of Ellen-Louise Rooke, who was assisted

Dr. Armstrong expressed his appveciation of the thoughtfulness and intevest of the students in securing the
