The article in the :'A111er•ica11 pub- lication included reference to weird spellings 1)y , (;eorg-e Bernard Shaw, who contended that in our language anything is. possible.

Well, Education Week is all over for another year, thank goodness, and we educators can get hack to the job of leading horses to water, without being urged on by fervent articles in the newspaper and dull panels on television, i:t's strange Education used to. be considered the most boring topic; in the world. Now, it is a convey_ sation gambit that will throw any gathering into a verbal Bonny. brook before you .can splutter "Egerton Ryerson". e`hief reason is that every adult who got past Grade 4 is an expert on the subject. Everyone has at least. one cure for the ills of the school system. 0-0-( People who used tc be beaten mercilessly by their teachers for pure sloth will sit batch there with a big, fat drink in their hand and tell you earnestly that today's kds are "lazier'n hound dogs." Women who t+ouldtt't stagger out of Grade tJ bemuse they were so abeoebed in Joe, and who quit as soon ,as they were 10 in order to Marry him, wilt declare vehement- ly that they' all "go steady" and the trouble with school girls these Clays is that they think of nothing else hitt boys. Men who spend hours bragging about what hellions they were in school, scream for everything short, of a Royal Commission to invest` gate, when a teacher gives their Johnny ,a dirty look, after he has tried to live up to the 'old man's reputation. ".Then there are all the people who think that the job of the school is not to educate people, hut to teach them how to make a ].vine„ the bigger the better. This being so, "Why do they teach them poetry and Latin anti all that junk they can never use? 0 - 0 - 0 I'm not adopting a holier -than. time altitude toward all these people, Before I wandered from the Elysian fields of the weekly newspaper into the blackboard jungle, I, too, sat on the veranda of my glass house and fired reeks al the system. 1' Stillthink these are many flatus in i1, many gaps in the pre- eess, and a good deal of bewilder- ment :timid the direction in which ills going, but T ant also aware of some of the obstacles in the way of Making it perfect. Perhaps the biggest of these lies in the materials used. In manufae. tuning, a product of high quality can be turned out if certain pro- cedures at'e followed. Obtaining the heist materials; using the hest equipment; following the most ef- ficient methods. But in education, the unit com- ing off the production line is made Of flesh and blood, ft breathes and thinks and fears and rebels and laughs. You can't mold or press it into the desired standard shade and size, cram it into a package and peddle it through an expensive aclvertising and salts campaign, 0-0-0 And it's a jolly good thing you can't, because there are plenty of people in the world who would like to do just that. In the big Commie countries they are trying to do it right now. They are having ap- parent success and that's why everybody panics whenever the newspapers announce that the Russians are now "turning out" 22 or whatever per cent more eng. gtneers than we are, rd like to make a little pro- phecy.

That's easy. Look at what happened to the western world When they began educating us pea.sar)ts, Now we think we're as good as anybody. We topple gov- s'rnn1ents, we criticize kings, we demand more money for less Work, we thumb our collective noses in the general direction of authority. 0' _ tl . 0 What do yoii get when you start aducating the masses? You get a lot of smart alecs. Oe smart Ivens, or smart Wongs. Marl: my words, one of these days their leaders will wake up to it, but it will be too late, When all those educatr.t Commies get sit k of the same old ideas and start looking around for some new one, there'll he a tremen- dous explosion. You can't put everybody in a concentration camp. And with these few confusing thoughts, let us say farewell to Education Week as it slowly sinks out of sight for another year. And let us spare a tear for my son Hugh, who chose this, of all weeks, to come home with his worst re. port card of the year.
