day evening under the ,leadership of
the president, Me. John Wood, The
d'iscus'sion of Educ'ationa'l Systems
was introduced by the president,
whose ,school days were spent in a
church' school in Newcas't'le, England.'
He showed that the brain'in'g of the.
mind is only a part of the school life
there. Also there is religious training,
and vocational training, such as wood-
craft for boys, and cooking, sewing,
etc., for girls. But most of all there is
the training in true stport.s'man'sthip,-
there is no Man anywhere who knows
hew to "play cricket" any better than,
the Britisher.

a rural sdhaol in I7ennnark, gave an in-
sight into the D'an'ish 'esystem. There,
the, public school teacher must be a
graduate of the University with two
years more in the Sehoodi of Pedagogy.
The Danish Public School is very
sinmilar to the British Ohurch School
in its course of instruction -the mind,
the hand, the voice, the religious .life,
and the social life are all trained.
lIn Denmark there was a "depres-
sion" in 1660 which compelled the
people to either co-operate or starve.
Out of that experience there devel-
oped a new kind of secondary school,
One rich man gave ,his farm for sc'h'ool
purposes for a practical s'tudyo'f soil

other patriots` gave their es'tate's for
the same . purpose. A new Dennnahk
grew ulp with a s'tro'ng co-operative
spirit, a religious sense of business
honor and a rural mind which made
it possible for her to standardize her
products, and win her way to the ,vety
front in the world's etnarkets.
