St fit Soho (.cm in ioin‘r CM won I like to inti Rhice some reforms, very radical re¬ forms, in the public sc bool sy„ t<‘rn ' of the State, lie ^ ! t •zr at if lie wore given ubsolut control of the schools for ton yonrs ] would bring about changes that would be absolutely startling. We have no doubt that, he is right. A system of public school education could be devised that would be ever m much more ben¬ eficial than the one in use. Mr. Glenn's idea is that the system or education should be of a charac¬ ter to make the pupils do a great deal of thinking. Now they are tuughl to memorize hundreds of tilings which arc of no benefit to them. The memory is cultivated, but the reasoning pow¬ er is not, to the extent il should be. If, u! the. very beginning of their care, rs in tho schools, child¬ ren wor, required to do more reasoning and less memorizing (hey w uh! be far better equipped for life’s duties when they left vM m,, I than they are. It would be a bereuleon task, however, to bring about , the , reform to which , , Air. Glenn called attention in his spot oh at the banquet of the Hi- Bern ion Society on Monday.— News.
