Not very long ago, said Charles
l.. Moshcr, attendance director of
the department. a child was subject
To an infleXiblr course of study
from the first grade to high school
graduation; and in that period cdu-
cation literally was showed into his
head, no allowance being made for
mental ability or emotional ade-
quacy.
Bat this systcm, explained
MoShcr, latter years of study has
changed and will continue to
change. Adjusting every year of
school to the child means greater
power. There are as many differ
en-, personalities as there are chill
drcu and as many stages of native
capahilitY. Today we do not ask
boy TO absorb more than he has
power To, and thus we avoid the
conflict and the rebellion bred in
the old system.
"Thcrc is moro human relation

which has created a greater freedom
and better understanding | at
tribute much of this to the develop
mcut Of physical education and the
closer role the teacher has had ON
the Playground -
The wider scope of the education

part the truancy problem, Moshcr
said.
