SHARPLY CRITICISED.
WASHINGTON Feb. 16 Special. President
Eliot Of Harvard University addressed the Ma
tional Educational Association, Superntendents
Division, to-day the subject Of shortening the
preliminary school course and on keeping down
the age Of final graduation lie showed that the
average age of admission to college was constantly
increasing At Harvard the average was eighteen
years and ten months. The average of graduation
from American colleges twenty three years
After three or four years spent professional
preparation boys were twenty or twenty
eight before beng able To begin earning their
living. The course the preparatory school
should be shortened so that the age OF admission
to college would be reduced.
Some Of the United States Senators might have
felt their ears burning o-nlght Judging from the
criticisms that were made on them by several of
the educators The subject OF National AID TO
seq oOls was under consideration and this brought
OUT debate on the merits OF the Blair bill The
current of opinion was favorable TO the measure,
but some strong opposition was expressed. SUI
perntendent A. + Marble, head OF the Worcester
Mass, schools, made the leading argument against
the bill. He is the educator whose views
rather roughly handled i'll the Senate by Senator
Evars. Superintendent Marble said that if the
United States were to dump $4,000 in the
Worcester Schools he would not stay there but
would resign the superintendcncy, for IL would
ruin the schools 1t the trials that the
schools of Maine and the West had gone through
that had made them valuable. When com
munity needed schools it would have them, Blair
