LAST WEEK OF SCHOOL.
pr. Schaeffer Talks on "What Shall
 We TeachH


 University, July 13-(Special. 1.-The last week of regular work at the summer school began this morning. Before the general assembly Dr. Nathan c. Schaef- fer, superintendent of public instruction of Pennsylvania, delivered very thought full lecture on the subject of What Shall We Teach?" Dr. Schaeffer's ideas were in the main opposed to those generally prevailing in the present age of utili- tarian and industrial education.
 In the beginning the speaker showed the difficulty which confronts the teacher in deciding what to teach, overwhelmed as he is with conflicting advice and hay ing, in many instances, a cosmopolitan population to deal with. To clear up the matter he approached his subject philo- sophically from the historical point of view There are three conditions of life, he said-savagery, barbarism, civilization. In the first there are three stages. Mel first lived on nuts and berries, then they learned to make a fire and cook fish; next they learned the use of the bow and ar row. Coming up the scale we find the barbarans first herding, then farming, then smeting iron. But up to this time the schoolmaster was not needed, for men had only spoken language. Civilization dawned when men learned how to pur their thought into written characters

Then the schoolmaster became an essen tial agent In human life.
 If we recognize the above theory, we must accept as the core of the curricu- lum reading, writing and arithmetic. Then geography and drawing should also be taught These are the things that fit the students to perform the duties of ctizen- ship. But the primary purpose of edu- cation Is to teach the right use of books for in them are stored up the best and highest thoughts of the human mind; they epitomize civilization. Men and wo- men should be taught how to make life orth living Tn the hours which are free from the toll incident to the struggle for existence.
 Throughout the week at 1O:SO in the morning and 5 in the afternoon Dr. Schaeffer will continue his talks on edu- cational topics.
