of the pupils have yet completed the

WHY KNOCK THE SCHOOLS?

It's passing strange how the daily
newspapers of Salt Lake City take
especial delight in knocking the city
and it's institutions. A striking ex-
ample of this was seen in the Salt
Lake Herald a few days ago in a re-
port of an examination of pupils of the
public schools in the art of spell ng.
mot one perfect in spelling" cries the
Herald in big head lines and taking
that as the keynote the writer of the
article brings out prominently not
only mistakes made by the pupils in
spelling, but manufactures mistakes,
and carefully avoids giving credit for
things that are creditable. Why the
Herald or any other paper should take
especial pains to so misrepresent the
Salt Lake City schools and do injus-
tice to the pupils, wound their feel
ings and the feelings of their friends
and that at the expense of justice is
one of those things that mo fellow can
find out" mot one perfect in spell
ing" screams the Herald, in its big
head lines. Is there anybody perfect
in spelling? If there is he or she has
no connection with the Herald office
judging by the spelling as it appears
| in that sheet. That may be one rea-
son why the Herald is so anxious to
make it appear that spelling is neg
| lected in the public schools Of the
city, which, however, is not the fact
| The Salt Lake city schools are above
the average, a long way above the
average of schools generally in the
country.
Three hundred and forty-nine Sth
grade pupils of the Salt Lake CITY
schools were examined in spelling
Their average marks were 53A per
cent. In Springfield, ILL.,, 200 Sth
grade pupils showed 51.2 per cent av-
erage marks; one hundred in Elgin
Illinois, the percentage was 52.2 in
spelling, and so it goes all over. Salt
Lake is "full high advanced" in the
matter of it's schools.
The croakers tells us that in the
days of old spelling was much more
perfect than it is now. Now in 1916
at the Springfield, Mass, high school,
in spelling contest the identical
words given in the high school con
test a few days ago were given. The
average percentage of excellence or
perfection, as you may choose to coli
it, scored by the Springfield pupils
was 40.6, while the Salt Lake boys
and girls a few days ago on the
same words scored an average per-
centage of 80 10. Not much in the ma
ture of deterioration about that. The
| following are the words given in the
| high school test:
Accidental. accessible, baptism, Chi
rograph. deceitfully, descendant, eccen,
trio, evanescent, fierceness, feignedly,
ghastliness, gnawed heiress, hysteric.
imbecility, inconceivable, inconveni-
ent, inefficient, irresistible.
