In the course of his lecture he discussed the various stages in the growth of our the best results can be obtained only when the students are thoroughly In terested in their work.

 This morning at 10:3O MT. Hughes Childhood by Training. He said that we must not make the child a nega- tive, quantity by always forbidding him to do things; it Is better for him to go on doing bad things than to do nothing at all. While we are respon- sible for the evil about us, we are far more responsible for the good that The The thr three Vital u elements % U of character "a love to do. love to do what one has planned himself. and a love to CO., operate-m1ust not .tss be destroyed. ing them. Flogging stops only the wrong doing: 1t has no effect on the desire to do wrong. It does not make acter and interferes with the soul growth. We must help the child to gain the inheritance with which hs came into the world; we must make him believe that there Is gold in life and train him to dig for it.
 In conclusion he said that we teach children formal things entirely too early. for we give them problems ro solve before we teach them to find problems. In this manner also the child's development is dwarfed. The greatest man Is the one who can solve not only other peoples problems, but who can find his own problems and solve them.
