JACKSONVILLE^ Fla^ Dec 30.—
The opening meeting of the fifteenth
annual cession of the Bouthern Edu
cational Association consisted of the
addresses of welcome and responses
at the opera- house last evening.
The attendance was large, brilliant,
and the audience moved easily to en
thusiasm as It listened to the pane
gyric* spoken of education In the
South—Its struggles, achievements
and future promises.
This new phenix city of the South
has opened welcoming arms broadly
to her distinguished pedagogic guents
—both those of the Southern and the
state associations. The spirit of prog
ress ond hospitality manifested on ail
sides will make for a most successful
series of symposiums on the great and
vital problem of educational advance
ment In Dixie.
Notable Declarations.
The address by President Lynch, of
ths Florida State Teachers* Associa
tion, was pointed and shockingly prac
tical .upon mine r.ubjecta affecting
school methods In the South. Presi
dent Lynch showed the r.trong perve
man sure of his observations and
fixed In his convictions an to the needs
and errors of educnt'onal things as
they present themselves.
His cogent and well-reasoned de
nunciation of the overloaded courses
:,t study in our Bouthern common
hools drew forth the first hearty ap
plause of the evening, lie voiced a
feeling that seldom gets expression
nowadays, but that Is very prevalent
among the rank and file of laymen
whose children fill the public schools.
They believe, ns he argued, that a
4mntterlng of a score of study-sub
jects, under the futile guidance of
eachers themselves not able to under
stand the thlnga they are act to teach,
is an educational malfeasance toward
ll*e mass of pupils who can never hopo
to go beyond the grammar schools at
nest. Ife Insisted that sane and safe
education In the South In the popular
schools should, for the present and
near future, nt least, be rigidly reduced
to the fundamental studies of a pri
mary English course.
An Unpardonablo Waste,
Such a scheme—embracing spelling,
ending, writing, arithmetic, history
»nd geography—would meet every
tenslble demand of the growing gen
(ration, fulfill the measure of state
lull*, expend the peoples money for
the real purpose for which they swent
t out In faxes and make It possible
o get n full complement of teachers
equipped with such simple profl-
iencles. President Lynch was cape
dally emphat'c In criticism of the
fsddlstle forms of manual training,
so-called, that has been Imposed to no
practical benefit upon many of
public school systems. They Irivolvo
waatifte of money, a mummery of In-
atruclon and a final disappointment
to expectations of both parents
and Wn«. *

Chancellor Hill's Ad dross.
The address of Chancellor Walter B.
Hill, chancellor of the University of
Georgia and president of the H.
like nil deliverances made by him. was
a deliberate and strongly-phrased ar
gument—this time In the shape of
continued plea for national aid In tho
leveling up of educational' facilities In
nil sections of the nntios. That pater
nallatlc governmental co-operation
would most largely afTect and benefit
the South, nt first. And It Is the
grounded opinion of Chancellor llill
that the nation owes this much to tho
section whose educational problem!
nre so largely the nftermnth of na
tloiuiI enterprises and Interferences In
the past, such as the abolition of
slavery and Its consequences projected
upon our civilization even to the pres
•nt hour.
Ill his view the good vork com
menced In the Morrill bill ol 18*3. and
Its after amendments, can row be ex
tended. under conditions thnt will not
offend state's rights aeiitlmeits, to the
great advantage of uniform and Indus
trial education through tho higher In
stitutlone, and to the rich profit of
the Kouth and hence to the nation at
large.
Stimulating Reports.
Today has been given up largely to
the henring of official reports both of
the officers of the association and from
the state superintendents of the vari
ous Bouthern states, detailing In each
of the latter the especial points of pro
gress during the put year In each
state.
The principal feature of the Utter
report* was the news of growing pop
ular devotion to public school mainte
nance. This Is Indicated by well-di
rected efforts In nearly every Bouthern
legislative assembly to devise ways to
Increase the funds for the public edu
cation. The means employed to this
end nre various. Including direct tax
levies, local taxation. Increased and
newly devised license and franchise
fees, and bond issuer, by local corpora
tion*.
The significant conclusion from these
reports Is that there Arc amp! re
sources In the South. If honest meth
ods of tax returns could he established,
to supply every state with wholly ade
quate Binds to operate perfect sys
tem* of primary schools. But how to
get such an equitable tax system tn
operation Is yet the supreme unsolved
problem of BoutShrrit statesmanship.
Compulsory Education.
This subject Is one that we people of
the Bouth. considering our sparsely
distributed populations and often pre-
♦ | ponderatlng negro cohttngents. have

Schools vs. Lawlessness.
Dr. James A. B. gherer, president of
Newberry College. Bouth Coral I na. dis
cussed the capital subject of “The
School as a Check, upon Lawlessness."'
The theme la one of large psychologl-
:al Importance to both the construc
tors nmJ operators of school systems.
The relation between Ignorance and
crime Is statistically so Intimate that
civilization cannot proceed evenly
without strict attention to the curbing,
correcting and controlling influences of
school discipline. By It more effective
ly than by any other generally applica
ble agency can Impulsive lawlessness
he supplemented b7 compelling notions
of order, obedience and honesty or con
duct.
There are thong who have actual
contact with criminal correction In the
Bouth .who do not believe that school
influences have a visibly repressive ef
fect upon certain classes of our popu
lations—particularly the remotely ru
ral whites and the negroes almost gen
erally. But statistics are. vain and the
logic of national experiences foj* n hun
dred years defective altogether If the
contentions of Dr. Hherer are -not val-
The Southern mates need \ln en
couraging arguments and will profit
Immensely by seeking to realize his
conclusions.
Industrial Education,
lion. Peter W. Meldrlm. of Savan
nah, the chairman of tho Georgia State
Industrial College in his home city, do
llvorod the first address tonight on
Industrial Education/' Col. Meldrlm,
graduate nnd trustee of the State
is not too much
Southern man thinks of political quo?
(Ions or governmental duty carries no j
weight in their final settlement! ; j
“There must be a cause underlying
this fact. What Is it? How shot! it i
be remedied? Until 1SG5 the Southern f
states, while democratic In govern* I
mental form, were In fact an Arlsto- |
cracy, and out of this aristocracy they i
chose, as artoscrucies ever do, their |
best men for public service. The I
wisest, the strongest, the most learn
ed were ever to the front—they were
the natural leaders of a bravo and
generous people who followed their
leadership with pride nnd pleasure. ,|
“With tho close of the war tho dem
ocracy arose and each man become a
factor In the government of Ills coun
try. Leadership was nol ro able or cul
tured. More blunders were committed
and more unwise views propagate!
and believed In. Aristocracy was al
ways trained! Democracy. If It i3 to
be as effective, must likewise be
trained!"
From these premises Gov. Aycock
argued for the cultivation of our own
Southern traits, traditions and tem
peraments, ns no people ever become
great by abandoning their peculiar In
dividuality. He urged that we must
lay aside vainglory and get down to
an honest Inventor? of all the things
we really have and are! Said he:
“We have had our Hilts, our La
mars. our Becks, our Vests, our Vangfs
and our Hamptons, products of tne
period before the war; but no man
can today go .through the South and
lay his hand on the head of any single
youth and say that here is a Lamar,
this is the time—you’ll never neecT.ifc
worse—
IT’S THE TIME
to get one, when you need-it—when
you can get one much under the real
value.

probably a doctor’s bill.
BY THE
ITnlvrr.lly, n lawyer nt eminence an,I a .here la a Vance, or n Vert or a III1I, n
publicist of pr/icllral wisdom, has
shown conspicuously In Georgia as a
Bouthern lender who Is neither nfrnld
shamed to lay hold upon tho Im
perative problem of on effluent Indus
trial education for our colored youth.
He In worthy to he written down at the
head of the list of the philanthropic
nnd pacific patriots of the stnte and the
Bouth lit thin crucial era, of our sec
tion's agonies of Advancement. His
hns been heretofore looked upon ns a
questionable. If not perilous, sort of
heroism, but for the ronnecrntlon nnd
chivalry with which he has borne his
unrequitable task, I honor him -above
almost any other Georgian of my ac
quaintance.
Ills address was sound. Illuminating
nnd statesmanlike; a sufficient Justifi
cation of the state's undertaking In be
half of Its Inferior citizens, nnd car
ried a prophecy of a possible and
peaceful solution of the future labor
problems of the Bouth. Ho was heard
with Intense Intercat and sympathy
with his views. ’
Education of tho Masses.
Governor Charles B. Aycock, whose
term ns chief magistrate of North Car
olina Is about to expife, was tho chief
nnd Inst speaker of the evening.
During his governorship of the Tar
heel commonwealth Governor Aycock
has become one of the most prominent
nnd popular personages In the educa
tional assemblies of the nation.
Whether at home, or In Mnmtnchuselts.
In Minnesota, In New Orleans. In At
lanta. or at the World's Fair be has
Hood forth ns the foremost Bouthern
champion of a strenuous public school
policy In the Bouth for whites and
blacks alike.
When one looks upon this strong
man nnd Into his honest luminous eyes,
and hears his vibrant voice sounding
always a charge upon the agencies of
Ignorance, Indifference nnd reactionary
prejudices, the looker feels like kow
towing to a princely patriot. Governor
Aycock Is no visionary—no grand
stand orator. He speaks from n clean
conscience nnd validated convictions of
what Is the true leaven by which the
whole mass of Bouthern life Is to be
enlightened, enlarged and made whole
some for all future tlmd*.
Ills subject was “The Education of
the Masses'’ and he spoke, In part, ns
follows:
Governor Aycook't Speech.
“The late Henator Hoar in on Ad
dress which he delivered at Charleston
a few yearn ago used this language
" 'The American people havo learned
to know an never before the quality
of the Bouthern stock; to value lb
noble contribution to the Americans
character; It* courage In war, it* nt-
tachim nt to home and state; its love
of moral life. Its capacity for great af
fection nnd generous emotions; it*
aptness for command; above all. this-
constancy, that virtue above all vir
tues, without which no people can
be cither great or free. After all the
fruit of this vine l* a flower not to be
found In oth^r gardens. In the great
nnd magnificent future which Is before
our country, nnd nre to constitute a
large measure both of strength aud
beauty!*
When we read this tplendld tribute
to the South all our hearts swelled
tth pride nnd wore glad. We re
joiced to find appreciation at the
North and a 'rarely beautiful expres
sion of it ns to our real character. The
prediction that a great and magnifi
cent future for our country was to be
bused In large part on the strength
and beauty of the Bouth brought to all
Bouthern people a distinct pleasure.
The question now arises among us.
however, as to whether, despite this
prediction, we havs any large part in
the life of this nation, and if not. bow
we ran secure and make good our
Hampton or a Reck! It is the busi
ness of our schools to find for us such
children nnd dovelop them In to such
great leaders."
He declared that nil the people
should be educated in order that com-
petlton should give incentive to great
mbltlons and great deeds. This would
demand great labors nnd grout costs,
but we must be ready to pay the price.
“When the war between the states
closed and the Incomparable leaders
of the Bouthern armies cast about to
find the work which he ought to do,
he became a teacher! He realized that
the South could only be made great,
powerful nnd controlling through the
school house and be devoted the last
years of his life to these high pur
poses of teaching the generation that
ould succeed his own!”
Tomorrow (Snturdny) many Im
portant papers and discussions will be
heard nnd nt night the two Important
nnd concluding addresses will be de
livered by Hon. Dupont Guery on
“The Education of Women In the
South." nnd by Dr. Edgar Gardner
Murphy, general reeretnry of tho
Bouthern Education Board. New York,
on th<' scope and present operations of
that body.
There are over 300 eminent Bouth
ern educators present tn the conven
tlon. Many are nccompenled by
wives and other members of the
families. While the weather Is not
Just tropical the enthusiasm of the
delegates is *o, and they win go hence
more Inspired than ever for the high
and almost 'holy tanks tn which they
have set their talents nnd their seal.
