lnsrowing Education.

Jn0foWt00 eo0eAtion.
Years ago. before 1914. when Ger
many was peacefully deceiving the
guileiess world by her efficiency and
her SNUG prosperity. her educational
system was considered the model of
excellence. Educators went abroad
to study at first hand German meth
DDS of imparting measured doses of
information-and transformation, ac-
cording to the prescribed schedule of
so many facts per child per day.
These same educators came home
and delivered erudite lectures on
what they had seen and drew meticu-
lous conclusions of their own. So
the German system was being made
the chart for all up to date American
educators to follow.
The chief merit of the system was
its adaptation to the teaching of sci
entific subjects. Certain fixed princi-
Piles and axioms have to be learned
in mathematics and physics. The
classifications of biology and geology
are definite and call for minute con-
centration. A vast amount Of bon
ing" is usually necessary before one
can begin to know much about a sci
cntiflc subject or to enjoy it for its
own sake.
When this fact-injection process Is
applied to literature or art it at once
creates a profound distaste for learn
ing. Stress the technicalities and
the essential content vanishes. Trail
ing dactylic heXameters is the best
known means of taking all the JOY
out of the adventures of Aeneas. If
teaching does not stir an interest for
more knowledge it does nothing.

Mistake Of the Conference

The Industrial Conference at
Washington was simply an attempt
to create class consciousness, how
ever we'll meaning its endeavor. In
its last analysis it was a wrong prop
osition to recognise such distinctions
as labor. capital and, for want of a
better designation. the public. 1t has
happened and is happening that la
borers sometimes become capitalists
and that many Capitalists were once
laborers, while all of them are the

ize that they are Americans. We

and nothing more than fair profits.
We must reach the root Of our trou-

once we'll understood and presented
no difficulty. But the term has &C.
quired a technical significance, and
to employ it Unfortunately is SEEM
