distasteful to the average boy
and to view the relationship
between pupil aud teacher as
that of jailbird and hated
keeper.
Here is a sample that is less
idiOtic than much than is said
THE average youth dislikes
school. Is it because of the
coincidence of physical devel-
opment with mental prepara-
ton for a useful life? Or
from the necessary inhibition
Of animal eXuberance before
the mind has obtained full mas
terry? Might it be that the
subject matter is beyond the
grasp of youth, and therefore
without the stimulus of sue
cess; or again is it the -substi-
tuition of parliamentary regi.
men for parental Indulgence
or a mere hatred for the har-
IneSS?"
To begin with the average
youth does not dislike school.
The normal boy Graves some
thing in the way of mental de-
velopment just as much as he
desires physical development.
1t is entirely natural he should.
Mental development is what
gives man the mastery over
brute creation. Mental de-
velopment plus energy and
personal stamina is what
makes successful men and
women. Without a noodle"
you will not make good and
this applies as much in one line
of business as another. When
a boy has no liking for school
work there is something the
matter with the boy, his par
entail training or his teacher.
For newspapers to continu-
ally harp about the misery
school work inflicts upon boy
hood is a psychological mis-
take. The suggestive influ-
ence is bad and it is needless
because it is not founded on
the truth.
