may be briefly summarized as follows:
RI. az ! The English university SO early
endowed, has for it's purpose to broaden

r. (2) French universities are designed

(3l German universities are the

Americans are fitted for college in

to prepare citizens for practical life
work. English public schools do not
prepare for college, such work being
done at Elton, Rugby, Winchester, ,etc
These few schools would naturally
mold to az greater degree of uniform

varied than the English, may not seem
