Lady Beecham Thinks Amer
lean System Has Great
Advantage Over British.
PRAISES U. S. DAY SCHOOL

LONDON. May Is Correspondence
of the Associated Press).-The Amert-
can system of education has a great
advantage over the English plan in
enabling boys attending day schools
to live at home and receive the care
and guidance of their mothers, This
is the opinion of Lady Beecham. wife
of famous music conductor, Sir
Thomas Beecham. She thinks that
many pitfalls in English married life
would be avoided II the boys of this
country saw more of their homes and
learned to understand women.
Boys of wellto-do families in Eng
during holidays. They attend board
ing schools. beginning in their early
teens, some when they are only seven
or eight. AS rule these schools
are SO far distant from the pupils
homes that their parents see the boys
month at Easter and during the mid
summer holidays. which last about
six weeks.
Booked for Schools in Babyhood.
It is the children of tho poor that
attend the day schools. or free
schools, as they are called. The pub
lie schools of the United States have
no counterpart in Great Britain.
What are known as public" schools
here are the fashionable private boys
schools. like Elton. Harrow and
Rugby, entrance to which Is SO diff
ficult that boys are booked for them
in their babyhood.
Lady Beecham, after pointing out
the advantage of the American day
schools, says that boys growing up
in this way to comprehend their
mothers, when they marry have far
more sympathy with their wives"
Experience at Expense Of Wife.
ST think" she continued. that much
conjugal trouble in this country Is
due to our system Of educating our
sons. The English boy sees little of
his mother and sisters, almost moth
ing of femininity in general, and
grows to manhood understanding the
minimum about the ideas and ideals
Of women. When he marries his ex-
perience is often gained at the ex-
pense Of his wife. which does not
make for happy marriage.
TT is almost revolutionary to con-
denim our fine old public schools, with
their enormous weight of tradition,
but confess l would like to see the
day school and the co-educational
system, SO common in America, play
a much bigger'part in the upbringing
of our sons"
