The ideal picture of the high

by brush and typewriter, receiv-
ed a setback Tuesday noon, as
Prof. Simon T. Horstick, Super
intendent of the public schools
Of the city, spoke before members
of the Kiwanis Club at its noon
time meeting at the Country Club
of Atlantic City.
Relative to the popular policy
that young people are not as III
terested in education as previous
generations" Prof. Horstick stat
ed, speaking on Matters Educa-
tional," that their morals are
looser, and that they are more
needless, wish to state most en-
phatically that l know different.
1.-THE students today are better
behaved, better workers, and
more interested than ever before.
They are better fitted for the bat
tie of life and will naturally be
better citizens for this great coun~
try of ours.
"In pointing out the modern
tendencies of education, l wish
to call your attention to the fact
that years ago the main object OF
learning was contained in the
three RS" and what could be
obtained from books, but today
this is greatly changed for the
better.
Gone advantage of the old sys-
tenn was that the teacher had an
opportunity to know and study
each pupil, whereas the growth
of the school system and graded
schools has somewhat cramped
the opportunity of the teacher to
ascertain the individual capacity
of each scholar, due to the fact
that the pupil stays in one room
under one teacher usually for one
year only. In order to overcome
this difficulty the card index sys-
tenn with a complete record OF
each scholar from the time OF
beginning school up until high
school is finished gives those IN
authority far better opportunity
than they would otherwise have
to determine the most satlsfac-
tory course the scholar should
pursue. This record, therefore,
is available at all times during
the schoollife of the student.
1--WE believe in giving the stu
dent every opportunity to pursue
the studies or courses for which
he shows the most natural apu-
tude, and assisting him in the
things in which he is most inter
ested. Some boys show a pref
erence for manual training, 9TH
ers for studies which lead to col
lege and professional life and we
feel that it is up to us to give
the student all the assistance
possible in order to fit him for
his life work We also believe
that in doing this, not only the
-4scbo,er hut the community at
large directly benefits.
eve also apply to the student
numerous different tests, psyche
logical and otherise, to assist us
in determining the best courses
for them and all through the stu
dent life we keep very close
watch on the results obtained. The
Intelligence Tests used for the
FIRST time by the United States
Army during the World War, and
adapted by educators after the
war to fit the necessities of mod
ern educators and have proven
very successful.
