For the joungsleis to whom the past does not appeal, progiammes of spoil, pageantry and spectacle have been de vised on n ccale to make the occasion a. milestone In their lives.

The sentences In this list seem ridiculous at first sight, but to th" thoughtful lllllld the whole affair is pathetic. It Is ,1 pi oof that after all the guessing of celue ntms to IK upon n tlieoty which will be most effective, the inoblem Is n f.ir finin being solved as Itwas twenty-llveycnrs ago. I, Ike the social and the l.iluii iiic.stioii, ediii'iitliiivil methocN aie at the extreme point of fei mentation I.Ike the p.uts cif Kipling's ship, thej have not yet "found themselves," and public schools do not educate. The doleful stoiy of this high .school in Massachu setts Is but the t.vpe of conditio! m which might be found In most high schools. H s a suit of ".-hoot-thc-chutc" svsteni which Is now In vogue, and tho nlm seems to be not bow well a child shall be taught, but how nun h cm be crammed Into his mental outfit in the- shot test polhlo "pace of time It is not the high s-e iioni which is to blame for this; neither is u the fault of the teachers in nny giade. Still less Is the pupil responsible for such a den-e state of Ignoiance, but something Is wrong In a s.vstem which places chll dien In a high school without a 11101 e substantial 1uep.1t. it Inn. This Is not an Isolated case. Pinb ulily If a similar test weie einplo.vecl. n like condition would be invcalcd In the Sci anion high school, nnd again we repeat. It Ih pathetic that .such a state of affalis .should exist, but It Is not nut prising. Note the cicumstances, Imv Itonment Is, after nil, the chief formulative ngency. Children learn n vocabulaiy from home surioundlngs- or fiom their reading. The great majority of pupils come fiom homes wheie the vocabu lar Is very limited. A huge nutubei will be found of foreign exti action, In whoeo family circle no .llnglish is spoken. Where It is, the pceh Is n,n. lowed down to the extieme of simplic ity In the Int'eichnuge of thought, Woids of the simplest construction are emplojed. In school the teacher finds It necessary to tnlk down to the pupil. She may not lay a wider foundation of speech, for the curiliulum Is s.o full that eveiy minute must he occupied In cinmmlng the youthful mlnels with ammunition with which to combat Hie ever Impending siege of examination. If she uses nt times the tangling? nrcll narily ciuplo.vod by those with whom her own home life Is passed, the child does not comprehend and she has not the time, owing to the picture of school work, to explain. Nntuially enough, the child In the humbler walks of life, for whom the public school sy.-,. torn of this county was designed, finds himself In the high school with a vast coiiglomeintlon of cut-and-dilcd fin ts iead to the nervoulv and with fear nt the examination bogle. He has had llttlo time to learn new w ore's that do not come Into tils every clay life or the school work healing Immediate telatlon to tho examination In the fuiegicjund, Consequently, a nsnv wotd with its dell nltlim which tic lias learned conve.vs no mine real meaning to tils befogged brain than If It weie SansUut. The answer of tho father to an lit qulilng sou who wanted to know the meaning of the wind "pi (inundation" Is equally applicable to delliililons. "Pionunclatlon," said the p.uent. "Is something you loaU in the dlctlonaty for today and fotget toinonow." Poll nitidis aie the same. The meie elcllnl tlon clues not "stick." The child s not familiar with all the terms in his home speech, much less has ho tlmo to icad am acqulic n larger vocabulaiy. So ho Is 1 educed to th exit entity which nil teachers recognize, and which li evi dent In the foiegolug example: "The song was soluble. Tho aiory was diluent." When n pupil's mind Is In niter nnd hopeless darkness legardlng a subject, ho Is certain to make a ' snoot. In the form of he. the or It 1 .... nun, uii.
