The institute session convened at

because of the registration of pupils
at the high school. An address was
given by DR.. Hall-Quest, who is
director OF the school utilization and
professor Of education at the Uni
versity of Cincinnati, on the subject.
Teaching Pupils to Understand. I"
He also spoke yesterday afternoon
at the general meeting in the high
school auditorium on The Fictive
Hall of Fame" emphasizing the ne
cessity of the development of a taste
for fine reading among pupils of the
American high school, and a better
appreciation of creative writing,
through intimacy with the great
characters of fiction.
Miss Mary Worster DR.. W r. Nc
Connell of Miami University and DR..
Z. NJ. Linton also addressed the
rural sections in the afternoon.
Asks Vital Questions.
DR.. Hall-Quest opened his lecture
with several questions of vital in
terest to students why do so many
young people dislike the great class
les offered for study in our public
schools?" he asked why does there
seem 10 be 80 little progress made In
tests for fine reading among the
majority of high school students !?
Why is material such as Tvanhoe'
and Tales of a Wayside Inn made
the standard of comparison, against
which a grievously long list Of poems
and tales are studied? Why are
pupils required to cOnfine their inten-
sive training TO only three or four
large selections during a term?
"One answer seems TO lie in the
fact that our large universities DOM
mate our English courses" he con-
tinued. Another answer is that
many of the more interesting and
modern writings are too expensive
but the main reason would seem to
be in the prevalent idea that liter
ature must be studied by a minuteIr
detailed analysis, foreign to the
young pupils mind and opposing to
his instructive interests in reading
