Variety of Subjects to Be Fur-

' Norman — The state university of
Oklahoma has ceased to limit itself
to the teaching of those arts and sci-
ences known only to the man who
would have a "higher education” It
' has ceased even to limit itself to the
man or woman who is able to attend
the school in person or who is able
to attend any school It is broaden-
ing its influence to include not only
the high schools of the state but even
the rural schools and farther than
that the people themselves of the
rural districts
The latest step in this ’direction is
the "visual Instruction movement"
Just starting which will at the very
outset carry stereoptlcon views and
lectures from the outside world to
16OO communities in SI counties in
Oklahoma This it will do at very lit-
tle expense to the communities them-
selves and on the condition that
jeveryone poor and rich alike in the
communities shall receive equal op-
portunity to benefit by the movement
Since 87 per cent of all we know
comes to us through the use of our
eyes the University has decided that
through this medium can instruction
and entertainment best be carried to
(the rural districts Accordingly Ian-
DR J W 8CROGGS
Head of the Extension Division
University of Oklahoma
tern slides are being prepared hun-
dreds of them and on a score of sub-
ject They are to be sent out to rural
school districts where views will be
thrown cn the Bcreen while local peo-
ple give lectures specially prepared
by the Uifiverelty explaining the pic-
tures From twelve to twenty-four commu-
nities are placed on one "circuit” for
which c schedule is made out The
lantern tildes are sent to the school
house fit on the schedule where a
local person runs the machine and
another gives the explanation to tho
pictures
Each one of these entertainments is
made up of about 72 slides with the
lecture that accompanies them The
range Is from views taken In Okla-
homa as well as elsewhere on better
roads more pleasant home surround-
ings improvement of rural school
grounds etc to views on travel
"Around the World in Eighty Min-
utes" "Japan” "the Panama Canal”
‘Our Own National Capital City”
"Scenic Wonders of the West” etc
Then an introduction is given to sci-
ence in its simpler forms tBrough a
picture and lecture study of polleniza-
tion of flowers designed to assist the
farmer to better fruit growing and1
Interest the rural youth in the won-
ders of botany and zoology Other
subjects are treated that tend to open
up to the people the wonders of their
own surroundings
Each community will receive a set
of six lectures one a month
The cost of the service was first an-
sounced at 1200 a community for the
elides and lectures Later Dr J W
Scroggs in charge of the movement
in Oklahoma found that he could be
of Bervice to state advertisers to the
extent that they would pay half the
cosL In return three minutes of each
entertainment Is given over to the
showing of advertisement slides The
local ( community may take an equal
time for the showing of local adver-
tisers slides to further reduce this
cost of $600
Then this is only a beginning of the
movement Dr Scroggs of the state
university for a score of years an ed-
ucator In Oklahoma Is carrying on
for the betterment of the people of
the rural communities The univer-
sity Is now lnsLstlng later it will re-
quire that each community receivit
the service organize a
elnb” that will maintain st least three
activities a debating club the mater-
ial for which the university will fur-
nish free an agricultural elub satis-

Mechanical College
