The address of the entire session,
which was noted for several of unusual
excellence, was delivered Friday night
by DR.. Scurman, of Cornell
Prof. Scurman was introduced by
Prof. Phillips, of Knoxville, former
alumnus of Cornell university, and was
received with shouts and applause, the
audience standing as he arose to speak.
His Introductory remarks were follow
ed by an illustration of the American
spirit of thoroughness in education,
and its application for the benefit of
mankind, illustrated by a sketch OF
the life of Ezra Cornell, the founder of
Cornell university, and the remarkable
rise in power and influence of Andrew
johnson.
Prof. Schurman spoke of the increas-
ing demands on education, sometimes
reaching the point of neglect of duty
on the part of the home, the placing of
the burden on the schools and colleges.
But advancement necessarily places
additional responsibility on the schools
and the old curriculum of few basic
studies has now been replaced by spe-
cialists at the head of each. To the
question, "Should morality be taught
in the schools ?" Prof. Schurman ans
wered both yes and no. No, to teach
ing by books, by lectures and by rote;
yes, to the teaching by living example
on the part of the teacher. In this
manner it not only is most effective,
but in this way it must be taught, for
character is higher than intellect. The
speaker advocated the teaching of ag-
riculture in connection with the other
of the school and college, and not in a
separate school, and to be taught by
application.
The great American intellectual vice
of inaccuracy was depiored as basis
for an insistence on thoroughness, even
in one thing. Prof. Schurman says
that man who is absolutely thorough
in one branch is educated.
Prof. Schurman's closing remarks
up his address aptly, and he
said that while much advice and in
struction had been given to the mem
bers of the association, the application
of it is where the difficulty comes in,
for it is easier to give advice than TO
practice it ourselves.
DR.. Schurman and Mrs. Schurman
spent several hours Saturday in Greene
Vile worshiping at the shrine of An
drew Johnson.
