eo-No less authority than the Rev. u. v.
Hudson. In = recent article in an educational
journal. asserts that the schools cf sixty years
ago were better than those Of to-day. because the
education Of the heart and hand was simultans-
Gus with that of the mind. This is the opinion
Of many other educators. There can be no doubt
that many Of the ordinary school studies Of the
present day are Of little practical value to = ma
jOri,y Of the pupils. There 'esms to be lack oi
practical design. Many Of our foremost eduea-
tors believe the great demand Of the times l. for
industrial schools. These would bring pupils into
much nearer connection with their future life
pursuits than the methods 10 vogue at the pressn,
time. OF course. such . radical change must be
. matter Of slow growth. II cannot come at once,
but the great interest Il Is creating In educational
circles would seem to indicate that the time will
