Schools Under Fire
A stinging criticism of the whole Ameri-
can school system by Dr. Ernest Codman
Colwell, president of the University of Chi-
cago, has aroused Los ^Angeles residents.
Upon hearing Dr. Colwell’s comments, they
inferred he was thinking of their schools
specifically whereas the learned educator
ri was talking of school systems generally.
Guy Hafferty, a Christian Science Moni-
I tor writer, watched the Los Angeles news-
I - papers and the citizens pour fo,rth a barrage.
of «ditoriak and letters on the subject, -and-
then gummed them up in a manner which
points out the general complaint^ We feel
these complaints are a bit familiar, and
list them here, without comment.
- L Children are not being grounded in
fundamentals, such, as English, spelling,
mathematics. Ohe writer said: ‘ After three
full years in our public schools (kindergar-
ten, first and second grades), my son
literally couldn’t read cat.” And this writ-
er went on to tell how she bought an old
fashioned speller and an arithmetic book,
and taught the boy at home. There is said to
be much concentration on hobbies, crafts, ________

worst mistakes schools make is in trying to
teach children political patterns and other
things that are far beyond their years.
“There are-some things you can’t teach in

We started for Poughkeepsie, not just to have
-- our lunch at the famous Smith Brothers restaurant,
but because it was only about eight miles from Hyde

/. ‘ We'knew that the place had been made into'a

We went, there-'as we would go to any Diane where

Were not those other words of the “Elegy” fitting
for the man whose- grave we were about to visit?
Those words whieh said, that in this,-spot was laid
“some heart once pregnant with celestial tire; Hands,
that the rod of empire might have sway’d.”
WE DID stop in Poughkeepsie and bad our lunch at
Smith. Brothers. We got into the car. and I was
about to ask a policeman how to get to the Roose-
velt place.
But I did not have to ask. A big sign at the corner .
informed us: “To the F. D. Roosevelt Home and
