shown that the people are really more

done at the students leisure and with
such assistance as he can get from books.
Here is Il training similar to that in actll-
al life: the best qualities in mind are
brought out. while recitationS can fur
nish the students with practice in answer
ing questions, and the instructor with
opportunity of guiding the students and
correcting their errors. The same prin-
ciple should be extended as far as posi-
BILE in all studies, and also in preparatory
schools. 1t has recently been tried at
Harvard with signal success in the exam
nations for second year honors in math-
ematics, while in political economy and
history there is tendency in the same
direction. The adoption, also, in the
Harvard Law School of the lease sys-
tem,' which is based on the principle of
letting the student do his own thinking
in law, has cause independent thought to
be more necessary than research for sue
cess i'll rotations: has infused extraor-
binary vigor into the school, and made
its recitation training unsurpassed.

TEN as have proposed 4 prize would be
placed on deception. Even if some OBJ
