on a speech by Professor
Lore Sharp, of Colum-

had characterized! tl<^
school as, "the one big

that "if Professor

condemning the great institu-

and i8 brought in simply to
confuse the issue. The propon-

common institution oi educa-

attending the grammar grades.
Let it be emphacizert—the ele-
mentary, grammar grades. The
higher institutions of learning
from the high school to the
University are not affected.
The requirements that; ail
normal children be instructed
in common elementary schools
in secular subjects and there
trained in the fundamentals of
a common citizenship, surely
contains the very essence of
Americanism.
On the other hand the plea

national reputation as an au-

nearer to the heart of the Amer

When a great daily can give
utterance to the aristocratic doc
rine that the educational oppor
tunities for children should be
he dependent upon the financial
resources of their parents, and
hold it up as correct principle
to prevail in education, we dis-
cover that the battle for equal
rights is not yet won, even
though the editorial fails to see
that these doctrines deny each
other.
The demand that all children
of grammar school age should
be educated in the public sch-
ools rest upon the principle
of equal opportunities for all,
irrespective of class, creed or
financial position.
The discussion, vigorous, and
direct, is welcomed, but let it
be fair, truthful and without
bias.
