SCHOOLS MUST MEET
CHANGED CONDITIONS

Changed social: and industrial
conditions demand changes in the
schools" says the United States bu-
reau of education in a survey OF
Elizabeth City. N. c., schools.
Fifty years ago the environment
Of the average boy: and girl furn-
ished an education in wholesome
activities that developed intelligence,
initiative and Industrious habits. But
during the past half century has
come the growth Of the modern city,
until now half the population Of the
country is concentrated in cities. and
tho city with its overcrowding, it's
mills and factories, and office build
ings, which gradually grow up on
the vacant lots, is depriving children
of the opportunity for the healthy,
wholesome work and play which are
essential elements in their education.
1.-THE. city home, whether in a
large or small city, is very unlike
the farm. with its many necessities
for learning. by doing It offers
great educational Opportunities in
the way Of healthful work which
develops the ability to think by at
tacking problems to be solved. There
is no planting or harvesting to be
done; few if any animals to. be taken
care of, and it is a rare city home
that has a workshop or. laboratory.
Yet, children until recently have re-
ceived much, of their education
through the opportunity to. handle
tools. to take care Of animals and to
experiment in making and using
things. But. the city not only fails
to educate children in the right d.
rection; It educates them in the.
wrong direction, for the street, with
its dangers to the physical and moral
life: of the children too often be-
comes their only playground. And
street plays means education not in
health and strength and Wholesome
living, but .precocious education in
all the vicious side of a city's life.
''For these reasons it has come to
be recognized that the city school
must not only supply the opportun-
ity for study in good class: rooms
under wholesome conditions, but 1t
must. also return to the children the
opportunity for the helpful work
and play which the home can no
longer supply -.
