THE recent suicide of a schoolboy In Vnncouvcr, 15. C., who pre ferred death to going to schoo . was a sad mid stnrtllng occurrence. It surprises Americans because It Is so rare. But It would not surprise Germans or Englishmen. Such de plorable affairs occur wholesale among Gorman schoolboys. Sulcldo prevails among thorn to n sadly surprising extent. At Eastr despair over failuro to puss examina tions drove many children to tnko their lives. What sort of education can It bo thnt gives occasion for such tragedies? Can It bo possible thnt the aormanB do not have all of wis dom on their slilo In tholr theories and prnctlco of education? Tho Bltcm of tho Gorman ptib'ie schools Is systematized to death. It Is bound with bands of steel, .t Prussianizes tho German boy oven In his years at school. Ho has to do his studying with all tho severity and earnestness of Juvontlo soldlcis under mllltnry drill. Individuality, lnttlntlvo and tho spontaneous Joy of childhood nro put Into strnltJackeN. Again, tho Gorman education Is fiercely conipotltlvo, nnd yot there nro comparatively fow prizes at Us ond. Tho examinations cannot full to Involve tragic disappointment!. Tho strain Is unrelieved by tho games thnt do so much to dovolop and cheer the English and American boy. The Gorman hns his gymnastics, foi Booth, but these do not compare as relaxation and recreation with crick et, baseball or othoru of tl'c good old Anglo-American games. Tho radical dofect In German schooling Is thnt it treats tho boy as n mental machlno for taking In facts anil Idcns and grinding out learning. The Gorinans lortvo boy nature, which Is men's nature In sap and bud, out of account. They fail to put tho Boclal, rocroatlve and character building factors Into the schooling of tho boy. English nnd American educators InHlst on our boys having these n.i well ns books nnd knowledge.
