Certain phases of agriculture are sure to make marvelous progress in New England during the next few years. Dr. Wiley, chief of the national bureau of chemistry, says, "Buy New Eng- land farms. They offer a great opportunity. The tide of moving farmers is eastward. Thousands are coming out of the West to re- populate the deserted acres of the East, and the day is not far dis- tant when with the new knowledge of farming applied to them, these deserted farms will yield abundantly and will vie with the world in the quality of their grain." So large a commercial and manufacturing population will always furnish the best of markets for dairy products, vegetables, fruits, poultry, and eggs.
It is not my purpose to maintain that every high school grad- uate should follow agriculture as a life work, though I do think it is an eminently worthy pursuit and one demanding high intelli- gence. My motive for urging the cultivation of a small plot of ground for demonstration purposes rests in the conviction that the value of any school subject is greatly increased by connecting it with the interests, realities, and activities of real life. Most school work is too bookish. Relatively too much time is given to the acquisition of facts and principles and not enough to the use and application of them. Only by the use of knowledge is real in- tellectual power developed.
There were many good things in the old education which should be preserved, and chief among them was self-reliance. Parents sometimes complain that the teacher is not willing to help the children. Such complaints are usually due to a misunder- standing as to what real assistance is. Whatever relieves the child from doing all he can to help himself will prove ultimately to be neither kind nor helpful. What children need is a clear, adequate presentation of each new subject to the entire class. This is teaching-real instruction. Hearing a lesson is not teaching but testing, and drill is something quite different from either. During a teaching period every pupil in the class should give, not merely passive, but active, concentrated attention. If some point has not been made quite clear, any member of the class should feel at liberty to ask questions about it, but the entire class should receive the benefit of both the questions and the answers. These con- ditions being met, there will be very little necessity of "showing"
10
individual pupils. Furthermore, there will be little or no oc- casion for communication between pupils. The pupil who falls into the habit of calling upon the teacher or a classmate for help every time a little difficulty arises soon breaks down his courage and self-reliance, loses his perseverance and all the other instincts of a true student.
It is pleasant to hear such good reports of the Mendon stu- dents in college. Those who go to college from a small high school must enter on examination. It is not reasonable to suppose they have had quite the same preparation they would have re- ceived in a city high school with its fine laboratories and large corps of teachers. Consequently it is a credit to the town, the high school, and the students that they are getting along so satis- factorily.
The plan of the present senior class to go to Washington during the spring vacation may seem like quite an undertaking. It is certainly worth while if it is financially possible. Hundreds of high school classes take this trip, and they probably learn more of history, civics, science, art, and architecture than they could possibly learn in any other way for the same expense. They re- ceive such vivid impressions of size, beauty, grandeur, enterprise, and achievement as to produce in the normal youth a beneficial blending of humility and aspiration. They ought to come back better patriots and better citizens.
I have found the work in your town extremely pleasant dur- ing the past year, and I wish hereby to express due appreciation.
Respectfully submitted, F. G. ATWELL,
Superintendent of Schools.
