Weakness of
American Education

For the most part, the specific faults
which have riddled American education
IN the last forty years are faults of an
excessive particularism, of a particular
ISM which, IN its overweening search
for detail, in its servile pursuit of
methods technically logical and sys-
tematic have lost sight of the essen
tlals, have shown forth but little either
OF the spirit or of the human applica-
tlons OF the subjects with which thew
deal. Thus the languages, both the
nving and the dead, have been taught
in the American classroom with tho a,,,
phasis so much upon grammatical and
pathological study that we have had
from it the result that not more than
one of a hundred competent Young
Americans attain, even after four and
llye years OF study, any grasp whatever
OF OF the spoken language.-Boston
