Another chool year has begun. More children than ever went
to -chool at on>' time before, will spend the next eight or nine months
laying the foundations for their independ> nt and individual lives.
Home of them will learn a good deal. Home of them will not learn
very much The one thing that most children learn In school, ainf
the most important thing that any of tin in learn i«, after all, not what
is in the books bill how to live
It ha always seemed to us that the real lifi of the child is his oi
her ,-chool life During these formativ) years the child's principal
interest centci about school. It e- the orn place where he can mingle
on )M|ual terms with all of those around him. For several hours a
day h"' works and plays in the company of those of hi own ag' He
learns, through the ncces-ary discipline of the schoolroom, to n -train
such natural impult" a- tend to disorder, but he learns from the con
tact with otln i hoys not only tin wi-dom of non-interferema with the
ng'ni of otln i -, hut tin important • ot standing up for Ins own rights.
In otln t words, tin most valuable function of the school i to socialite
it- pupils, to help them to learn how to live in the crowd.
In the old days of big families the children learned thos> thing*
fmm their own brothel - and istci l amilii of eight or ten ot more
young ti t - aii not -o common in th■ -■ day -, and the rIi-< ipIin.• of the
crowd i best enforced ami learned in tin -chool atmosphere And it
i« becoming more and more e,- i ntial that our young folk hould go
out into tin world with a hitter understanding of their plate in it
\\ ■ think tin h' t chool are the ones in which tin pupils are
required to do most for themselvc ami have the least done for them
by thiir teach)'i' and othei Ml t'nat any -ystim ot education can do
for any child i to -timulatt him to ii • his own native intelligence
lint outbid) of tin curriculum, beyond and above the formal routine
of thi acquisition of knowledge , far more important is the socializing
and civilizing infltienci of constant a ociation with other young one
of hi- own age.
