This he has not attempted TO justify or
to defend admitting that he took the

given his own time 10 repay this amount,

Teachers Not to Blame.

The attitude OF the teachers Professor
McMurray finds, is not satisfactory, not
SO much through any fault of their own
as through the fault Of their super1ors.
In the first place. he says. they are ham
pered by lack of authority either TO pun
ish unusually troublesome children ade-
ouateiy or 10 have them punished. In
recommending corporal punishment, he
SAWS:
The question Of the discipline of the
school children. particularly of those that
cause much trouble, deserves careful con-
sheraton. In our judgment. the reGula-
ton totally forbiddlns corporal puhlSn-
lucDt is unwise. IL is not now fully en-
forced. and probably cannot be. But, SO
long as il exists. many an unruly chlld
will attempt TO take advantage oil H. ana
thus cause trouble that would not other
wise be- If il could he understood that
,orporal punishment was permitted, un-
der careful restriction, in certain sChCols
widely distributed over the city and that
troublesome children in other scnoois
could he transferred TO these, that ar
rangcment alone would greatly relieve
the distress of many teachers. At any
rate. more aid should be gwen TO teachers
IN this matter.
In the second place he says, the teach
ers are hampered because they do not
feel free. They are given no authorita-
tive voice in helping to select the cur
riculum. in dividing the time among sew
eIal studies. in choosing the textbooks
they must use. or often, even, in deter
mining the methods they are 10 follow,
the report ":ates. He continues:
Lack Of Leadership.
ln the third place there is lamenta BILE
lack OF inspiring leadership by those per
sons in authority over them, !. e, the
principals. special supervisors and super
intendents. , -,
our findings further convince us that the
teachers. as a rule, are CONSCIENTIOUS anu
energetic: also. that in respect TO Their
profession they are static and depressed
Discussing in general the low plane Of
instruction i'm the elementary grades
Professor McMurray says:
II would ne hardly so unsatisfactory
as IL is, If the working aims themselves
Of the school were not so low. The most
depressing fact about this part of the IN
vestigation has been our inability TO dis,
cover either any general striving toward
the higher aims of instruction, or even
signs of such genera strlVinS
Under the head Of Recommendation,
apart from that of corporal punishment
for kindergarten and primary schools
Professor McMurray says:
THE authority Of the classroom teacher
should be more definitely fiXed. II oDedi,
ence is TO he one Of her or his prlncipai
ytr1ues then every one concerned should
understand that fact. on the other hand,
II a good degree Of freedom on her or
his part is recognized to be necessary
