The besetting sins. however. can be
safcguarded they are tendencio.
rather than evils. Chief among the
bad tendencies of the system is tho
temptation of the principal and sunsr-
intendent of the high school to denr,ya
the boys and girls OF the benefits or
working up the debates by outlipiny
the. debates for them. The oyerwa.n
Ing ambition to win from n rival scboo,
creates this condition. Another ten-
dencN that has its origin in a co,ler.
atmosphere is in the selection Of a do
batting query. The constant tennta
ton is to select some abstract. high.
sounding subject for discussion in nraf-
erence to practical. everyday tonic.
The corrective measure can be anniied
easily here. once the evil is recognized
lhen, too, the question has been raised
in favor of restricting membership In
the debating league to one sex. Mixed
debating groups-so the contention
has been made-will inevitably result
in awarding the decision to the girl de-
batter.
But. rs stated in the outset Of this
article. the gradual tendency is to elm
mate the evils in the methods of de-
batting, and treasure the inherent
merits-thus powerful educational
force in the high school life Of n State
is conserved.
