These two repaired to the ungraded section in the High School hall and, as is usual on such occasions, heard much that, while just awfully nice, was highly impracticable for an ungraded school. However, they were thorough | ly impressed by the helpfulness and good sound sense of an address by T. NJ. Ballet, superintendent of schools in Springfield, Mass. His theme was, ''How Schools" To give just report of the lecture would be out of the question, but | there was one point which we can men, tion: In comparing the district system with the board of education system, Nil Ballet remarked in effect that the latter system was bound to come and that those who set their faces against it were, un willingly, perhaps, but none the less surely, closing the doors against true progress.
