OUR SCHOOLS THEN AND NOW
Portland Oregonian.

O1OSOhAohs
A novel but quite effective test of
the methods and results of teaching
in our common schools of today and
those of sixty years ago has recently
been made. In an old garret in
Springfield, Mass, set of examina-
tion papers used in the ninth grade
of the schools Of that city in October,
1854, were found. Upon these the
pupils secured at that time an average
of 40.6 in spelling and 29.4 in arith-
metic. The test consisted in giving
these identical papers to the pupils of
similar grade in other schools.
The results showed a marked increase
in the proficiency of pupils. At Great
Falls, Montana, for example, an aver
age of 50.4 was scored on these
papers in spelling, and 1916 in arith-
metic. OF the competing pupils, Al
scored 100 in the latter branch.
The contrast between this result and
that obtained at Springfield sixty
year ago is striking. Still, when we
come to compare the methods of
teaching at that time with present
methods; to compare the text books
used in schools and to consider the
helpfulness of the public libraries
that are adjuncts of school work in
every town of few thousand inhabit
/ ants in these days, the difference is by
no means surprising. 1t would, in
deed, be strange if the science of
pedgogics had not advanced with the
growth in every other direction in
three tifths of century. The school
house of that era, as it lives in de-
scription and still to some extent in
memory, bears little resemblance to
the schoolhouses of the present. 1t
had then as it has now, roof, four
walls and a floor. There the SINH
J larity between the two ceases Ameri-
can school books of sixty years age
were written in the same Language in
which those of the present are writ
ten; then, as now, they included the
lessons of industry and patience, but
here the similarity between them
ends. Teachers of the olden times
were fltly described as "brisk WELD
ers of the birch and rule;" now the
birch is forbidden element of teach
ing and the ''rule" applies strictly
to technical matters.
Since nothing in the world remains
stationary, this movement in public

school equipment and methods is the
natural one. Growth describes for
ward and not a retrograde movement,
and the advance in our school meth

expected There is no evidence that
the pupils in the Springfield schools
sixty years ago were.not as studious
and as bright as are those in the
schools of the present to whom this
test of relative proficiency was given.
The difference is in opportunity, in

EGYPT AND THE PHILIPPINES.
Baltimore News.

While the British administration in
Egypt cannot point to such costly
and elaborate efforts to spread popu-
I lar education as we are making in the
Philippines, it is creating state OF
affairs we'll calculated to make the
people content. Through the atten-
tion given to the development of the
material resources of the country, the
average crop has been doubled in the
last 16 years, while at the same time
taxation has been reduced. These are
results that the people can appreciate
without any instruction in civics or
inculcation of new political ideas.
They are confronted by the solid fac5
that the value of all landed property
is now from five to seven fold what it
used to be before just and economical
government was established.
We are going quite the other way
in the Philippines. We are doing
our best to educate the people and to
inspire them with political ambitions
and at the same time we are repre-
senting the industrial development
of the country by our tariff policy.
We educate them into discomfort with
old conditions and at the same time
deny them the opportunities OF edu-
cational advancement. The intellect
of the country, instead of being at
tracted to its material advancement
by creating of new opportunities, is
turned to political agitation. What
can be expected from such a policy
but chronic spirit of revolt against
American rule?

ATHENA, APRIL. e, 1906

There appears to be grave need of a
complete overhauling Of our national
laws covering the disposal of the lands
which belong to the whole people.
Setting altogether aside the criminal
and quasi-criminal land operations
which under Secretary of the Interior
Hitchcock's presient Investigations
and prosecutions have already resulted
disastrous to some of those implicated,
u glance at conditions revealed in
publicly reported facts end figures in
dicates the necessity for amending the
laws. The people are all equally own
ers of these lands and it is to their in
terest that when they pass out of pub
lie ownership 1t shall be, primarily,
for the purpose of being devoted to
the making of homes and adding to
the productive power of the nation.
1t is commonplace truth that we
have been too much in the habit of re-
garding the public stock of lands as
inexhaustible. 1t is beginning to ap-
pear that the end is within sight.

The Russian governments assur-
ance that ample protection is to be
afforded to the Jews in that disordered
country is apt to cause sardonic
smile. That the Russian government
should be desirous of dealing fairly
with the Jews, or able to do so if it
had the intention, is so foreign to the
experience Of the past that nobody
will look seriously upon the present
declaration.

Mormons from Utah are establishing
great colony in chihuahua, Mexico,
where they can practice their belief
without interfe renee from the govern

belief in the United States without
governmental interference, so long as
the laws of the land are not violated,
the inference is that these emigrat-
ing Mormons cling to their idol OF
polygamy.
