come familiar with working conditiqns
and with the eduention`and American=

of this, was able .to speak knowingly
and with a,deep,teeling on his' subject
Ho made the statement that'all.abotild

the interest of his talk...,
Even after fifteen yours of caMpalin
mid work for child education, there are
still two million children between the

'This is about one sixth of the - children
of Unit age It is our duty to. do all
we cm 'to fight against aUch'condlticing‘
and thus help to rave the nation. We:
are connected with all the rest or.the.

oriii — i3rirt. will help It all -
One of the - fallacies, even among - the
educated, le that In n democracy, the
.proper sort of government in the,f Geld
of-education is an autocracy. Itblit
futile - for us to try to build up.a:dindoi

autocracy. The children, especially In
the country districts, become discon
