The Portland school system is like a I pill prescribed for everybody,- regard? i less of their Ills or needs. .,' i It enslaves teachers, principals, chil t trtn all who work under it It. so Utile relates Itself to the life i jieeds of boys and. girls , that the only ' chance of betterme'at is to substitute it , ..with another system that will deal with ' rboyg and girls as Individuals of in 'dividual bent, character and needs. i i. These, In substance and In advance of I hl formal, report, are some, comments t tna.de yesterday by Dr. F. E. Spaulding, the noted superintendent of the Newton, f : Mass,;-schools, who is completing the i -urv?y of the Portland schools author ' JseT-1y the taxpayer! at their last , "meeting. . rr, Spaulding ranks 'as a national J Jdcr In -progressive education. The r school system which he has devised in J 'Newton has become a model for the , ,entire country, . His plans have been demonstrated in . practice of several j Year." . .-.-. t High Schools ralL J He called attention to the attendance ! pf the Portland high schools during an interview yesterday. One fourth of the Kchoot population- should be attending high school, he said. In Portland the school population is 30,000. The high school attendance is only 3000, or one tenth of the total. . That this is ao, he observed, indicate that the high school Is not fulfilling its mission as a place iwhere young men and young women -may fit themselves for success In the ..occupations which they are to follow. as a matter of fact, be declared, 'neither the study system of the high I ,chool nor the grammar school has any i particular reference to what boys and girls are going to do after they leaver? ecnooi. ror that reason, more than any Mher, he judges, the school system Isn't .giving the returns It should. . Dr. Spaulding says he has found that 'the Portland curriculum Is progressively , Inefficient. It Is best In the primary grades. It 1s most Inefficient In the , liiEh school. Instead of becoming (stronger as the student advances It be- romes weaker, Children In the primary v department are allowed more comsidera r Mlon as Individuals than boys and girls ( ,t'f. the high schools. After they advance a-few grades In Portland all have to ; bend to the same rule. , J Change in 17 Tears. , , jT'That. the study courses of Portland ' have not been modified or changed to J ! any material extent during the past 17 i ' years- was another discovery announced J'7 Dr. Spaulding. Apparently, he said, ; what was taught 17 years ago Is con Tfdered to meet the needs of the pres 'nt. Changing tiroes and conditions have had little effect on the school system. , It still treats children in-the mass, it - rtoesn't discover their individual capa J. liilitles or tendencies; they : may t be t - taught things they are not Interested In j , or that they have no aptitude for, and if v.. they don't grade high they, .are consid cred failures, when, as a matter of fact, , said the educator, it is the system that ( is fsillng.- . ? ; Uo said h noted the harm the school , pystcm does the teachers and principals.

The principal made two little sug- Kettions that had about a cent's worth J Of ylUfc--Li-:-r:L..:r.-: , : : i The school system had so, depressed : Ms Independent thinking and initla- , live that ho : had stopped doing any- ; thing except to live by rule. This de- , Glared Dr. Spaulding, strikes a death blow at efficiency eport to Centals Surprises. ! The educators advised Mist a . be made of Portland to find what num- ; her additional can be used In the profes- , xlons and the Industries. Then find out t what pf the students are best naturally r fitted to be graduated into the profes- sions or the industries and train them accordingly. If they lag. he said, don't , let thcr.i stay In the same grade as has ! been done in Portland, but advance them, d find what they can do and do well.
