We need to view the country life in a new manner, we must iook at tne modern country school as a place to teach real children. Chang; Declared Needed. "The schools of today forbid the ac tion which all normal children re quire. We must have a change In the curriculum. I will hail the day when teachers will not have to feel so much like truant officers or officers of the law.
