tant Than University,
Says Representative.

"Public schools o. the District
should be brought to the highest
degree of perfection" Representa-
tive Simeon d. Tess, Ohio, said yes
terday while discussing the local
school problem.
Representative Tess. formerly
head OF the historical department OF
Ohio Northern University, director
Of college law, vice president and
later president of the same uni
versity. said that 1t had been his
experience as an educator TO ind
a superabundRnce of teachers for
the advanced subjects but few cap
able instructors for the elementary
grades.
Stresses Early Education.
TOO much Importance cannot be
attached to what is accomplished in
the public schools" DR.. Fess stated.
"University and college students had
failed to realize theL ambitions
solely because their early education
had been neglected and not because
they had failed to apply themselves
while in college"
In many CAGES their deficiencies
were traceable to inefficient public
schools and school systems. This
condition still exists" the Repre-
sentative decl red. bad surround
ings. improper instruction and a
lack of facilities all mitigate
against the chances OF a college
student being a success," he ex-
planned.
Not Period OF Enduraaee.
EVERY child should have a good
fund Mental education, no matter
whether he intends to enter col
lege or not" Representative Tess
said. If the boy or girl does not
plan to attend a university there is
all the more reason why the graded
and high school instruction should
be emphasized. II the student en-
tiers a university his progress is en-
tirely dependent upon what he has
gained from previous schooling"
Representative Tess intimated
that the general public does not
fully realize the Importance of the
public schools. Many persons in all
walk II life are under the impress
sion that the period during Which
the child Is attending the graded
schools is one to be endured.
Parents Not In Touch.
The parent does not keep in touch
with the school in most cases and
takes little interest in the progress
Of the child or the conditions under
which 1t Is receiving the most i'm
portant part OF its education. This
is a fallscy Of the present day." DR.
Tess charged. This period is not
one Of endurance" he added, but
one OF opportunity.
1T should be borne in mind by
everyone that the education OBJ.
tanned in the public school is more
important than that of the univer-
sity and IL should necessarily fol-
low that the public schools should
be brought up to the very highest
possible standard. In no other way
can the nation expect to produce
thoroughly educated men and WON.
