'It is nrettr m-arlv time." said Dr.
Jenes, "that the beard realized Its re
sponsibility te the public nnd used
methods that arc serious, careful and
tcirntlfic for educational betterment.
'"Personally. I should find mere fault
sjvith the methods used by the beard
than the type of men they have con cen
mldercd for superintendent. Of course,
there should be but one consideration,
and that Is te get the bent man In the
country, wherever he may live. An
three men considered Dr. Herrlek, Dr.
Wilsen and lr. Smith are educators
f the "highest type. Dr. Uerrlck has
the advantage of knowing the Philadel
phia school system, but the disadvantage
of never having been n superintendent
nd of hating been out of the public
choel work for ten years.
"Dr. Wilsen I knew as an able edu, edu, edu,
eoter of geed, sound, progressive ideas
and a great deal of experience. lie
has that invaluable quality of being able
te weld conflicting forces together and
of bringing harmony where discord
reigned. Dr. Smith, tee, is an able
educator, with a geed record, diplomacy
and a pleasing personality."
"The methods used by the Beard of
Education at its meeting were, te say
the least, distinctly out of order," said
Ir. Laura II. Carnell, deen of Tem
ple University and chairman of the
education committee of the Civic Club.
"Fer an organization of any kind te
nelect a committee te de n piece of work,
te which It devoted rnuUi time and
trouble, and then te ignore Its report,
is nothing mere or less than an insult,"
he added.
"There is no question in the mind
i any fair-minded person that the
only way te go about selecting n man
for a pest like that of superintendent of
