SPEAKS ON EDUCATION H. S. Hum Delivered Interesting Discourse Before Rotary Club. Yesterday That tlip system nf present lay education woillil necesarily undergo a great change in future anil that new systems, which had proved their value in the upbuilding of Ihe initiative and character of Hie men and women of to-morrow, were steadily and surely cominy lo'. Ihe front, was the opinion expressed by retii. in? public srhool principal II. S. Burn in his address before Hie Itolary' (Huh yesterday afternoon, on Ihe eve of his departure for the south. In opening his address Hie speaker said that a lot wus heard about the bad .situation in Hie world todayjealousy, greed and the like anil consequently people were running down Ihe youth of the present day. In a way they wore right because there was something wrong somewhere. Some people hlnm- ed the .schools ami ,the form of education and thouglTt political institutions by reorganizing the system might help along these lines. 'I'lie speaker did, not think however, Ihe." Hie political insli-lutioris could so change Ihe con ditions. Whclher Cnnmla had a senate or not or as Jo whether the Liberals or Conservatives were in power would not change industrial conditions. The same conditions existed "tn st?l coun tries and it was fulile'to look lo the government for the trouble in the world today.. The speaket though! the chtirch jn Its pre sent stale bad failed in its func tion in this respect. While na tional science had developed immensely in the last , 200 years, the study of the mind had not advanced at all. The speaker considered it was necessary to get right down to Hie root to eradicate the trouble in the world and that was the mind of Ihe child. ' Education Wrong -Some people said that While (he present educational system had been in force for a number of years nothing had been accomplished lo this end. If it, was desired to right-the, world me still had lo go lo the child ml to the church. The schools and the educational . system must iie amended, must be changed in fact must be revolutionized. When lie discussed what was was wrong with the educational system, Mr. Hum said he was speaking broadly and universally and was not discussing any one educational system in any par ticular town or country but the' system throughout the world. Subject and Child The speaker thought that the subject' and the 'child should be taugll in tandeiu. That was the new thought in education today. The authorities were beginning lo think more of the child. Ho said that when children came out of .school and were dismissed by-their teacher they let out a ''whoop" which denoted their ( pleasure in being released from school. That, lo his mind, wh entirely -wrong. Children should bo so (aught that they would go to school with the idea of Inking pleasure, jn the work. To his mind the average child was good by nature, and that the idea of Si-rvice; was implanted in the mind. However, they were not allowed to act on their own init iative ami lo do Brings for themselves, II was not. natural for u child to think but to do things. uirdlnniki nf aiIiiia! lm PAtilTWO H rr : .
