I agree that some things should be maintained in the school system. My only problem, Mr. Chairman, is that if you are going to have it as part of the educational system, it has got to be part of the subject matter. It has got to be just like the history of Europe, the history of the United States or whatever the history may be. As such, I do not have any difficulty with that. I have difficulty when you start putting in the music component, the language component, the arts and crafts component and components like the skinning of animals. Those are the responsibilities of the community and we should keep them separate and allow the communities to develop their children and those skills with your help. That is all I am suggesting.
