saved by better methods OF teaching and
study. Finally, if time enough cannot be
thns secured. the school term must be length
ened while the boys and girls must not be
permitted to leave school at SO early an age
as now.
4. There are those who will say that, of the
sciences which bear ON the leading pursuits
of the State, not enough can be taught to do
any good. Ii true, this is a fatal objection.
Answer: Each lesson will impart something
that, considered by itself alone, will be OF di-
rect, practical service. This elementary
knowledge of natural science, says that most
thorough of thorough scholars, John Stuart
Mill, is of exceeding worth to all men; and
he further declares, with Archbishop Whate-
w. that it is not to be denounced as SUPER
fetal knowledge, for it is accurate, thorough.
so far as it goes. Again, it is always the first
steps in any study which are the most diff
cult. No one would think of trusting all
men to learn to read without instruction. nor
w iOaih elo AiuutiPliCdllou tdDle, no not even
to learn to write their own names. Nor
should the learning of aught else of value be
thus left to chance. Most men, the common
school having once started them in drawing
and natural science, will go on by themselves,
II ther business require that they should. Ii,
however, the school has not thus grounded
them In the first principles and simpler appli-
cations, not one in wenty will ever make a be-
ginning by himself Hence it becomes of vi
tai Importance that the common school should
teach the elements of all knowledge required
by the people as body.
5. There are those who will say that the
number of recitations in schools having but
one teacher will be altogether unmanageable.
Answer: Studies are to be finished sometime.
All the studies need not be attended to each
term nor even each day. And teachers and
S. 5. Committees must learn how to classify
ungraded schools properly. With all the emu
merated studies there need not be above two
thirds OF the present daily rectations.
6.-There are those who will say that suit
able teachers cannot be had. Answer: Make
the demand and see. The schools will not be
so hard to teach as now. Because of the
pleasant and profitable studies the average at
tendance Of pupils will increase twenty-five
per cent
There are those who will say that the
State cannot afford to pay what it will cost
give such common school education. An
swer: The State cannot afford not to do it..
Not to do it will be grave political blunder,
and a robbery of the children, who have an
inherent right to the best education their
parents and the State can give. educate or
