TEACHING IN
PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

Editor, The Times: when in
the course of human events. II
becomes necessary" to prepare
a curriculum for a system of
public schools, "a decent respect
for the mental preparedness Of
the pupils in the variant grades
should be a governing consider
alton in selecting the subjects
to be taught.
Children are not sent to school
TO get an education, but TO Sc
cure a good foundation upon
which to build an education. A
foundation is built layer upon
layer. course upon course, in
accordance with general plan,
and by competent workers.
Consider the immutable laws
of God, generally called natural
laws, and the experimental laws
of man. Man has discovered
some OF the natural laws, and
will discover more as time goes
on. Manmade laws must not
violate natural laws, if they are
TO be useful and lasting.
The study of natural laws
should be part of the founda-
ton upon which to build an edu-
cation; but to this founda ton
must be added experience in the
ways of men and knowledge OF
human traits before anyone is
fitted to discuss the merits or
dement's OF msnmade laws.
Debates on increasing the
powers OF the federal govern
ment. government ownership of
railroads. the courts. labor
questions and much that is in
cluded under the general term
of social science" are entirely
out of place in any public school
curriculum.
