The success of the so-called o.

The success of the so-called Quincy sys-
tenn in the primary schools of Boston is un-
equivocal. The progress made by the
pupils in the five months during which it
has been in operation has been remarka-
bic, and nobody wants to go back to the
old fashion. The Transcript notices that
one very gratifying change which the
Quincy system has brought into these
schools is the marked and increased in
terest shown by the children in their work,
the pleasure with which they go to school
and master their tasks. The Transcript
adds that the system makes heavy draft
upon the energy and patience of the teach
ers, for its fundamental principle is that
the teacher must teach, and not simply
