BIG DEMAND ON EDUCATION
Modern Life Requires That 1t Shall
Furnish Opportunities for tho
Fullest lndivldualism.

= Opportunities for the fullest indi-
vidualism Is the demand which mod
eru life makes upon education. The
school should be an experiment sta
ton replete with alluring incentives
to intellectual growth. Here, aided
by the helpful sympathy Of teachers
who have discovered the difference
between schooling and education, chill
dren could try their powers, and mo-
ments Of enthusiasm be utilized for
mental growth in various lines. Men
tai tendencies, like animal instincts,
must be coaxed out by stimulating
situations, and the present school en-
vtrOnment Ia too barren to offer the
needed excitation. Boys are continu-
ally trying to understand themselves,
TO ind the occupation that their ma
ture vaguely Graves, but the pedagogi-
cal rope always pulls them back to
the curriculum. Then their enthu-
siasm cools, while the teachers go on
trying to strike an intellectual spark
with the mental temperature at zero.
This Is not only an extravagant waste
Of educational forces, but. what Is far
more serious, 1t awakens hatred Of
study in those whose mental organi-
xation does not suit the school plan
The restraint of a system suited to
tho average child inhibits the powers
Of unusual children and awakens re-
sentiment. Uniformity III treatment
and instruction suppresses the ten
dency to vary and creates billiards.

Magazine.
