Continually. Miss Nestby com- plslns that under progressivism, bright children are kept down to the level of the slow. This, she says, is "an inevitable product of democratic equslitarlanism. If all must be equal, no one must be too clever." she dismisses all the mea- sures that have been takcntodevel- op the bright child: the special classes, the special courses, of study, the "enriched curricula," as clumsy attempts to make emotional adjustments for the bright ones."

Lime is essential for humus pro- duction for two reasons.

First, calcium is needed for bact- erial nutrition just as nitrogen is needed. Withholding calcium will starve bacteria as surely as with- lioldlng nitrogen.

Second, lime is needed for neutralizing the organic acids pro- duced by the bacteria when they break down raw organic matter. If these acids accumulate through lack of neutralizing lime, bacterial activ- ity will be markedly reduced. If the soil is "acid" (has a low PI-Ii to begin with, it is all the more im- portant to provide lime. Even soils considered sufficiently liined for

O U C

I cannot prove at. this writing

that the other Canadian provinces

are not permeated with "progres-

slvism" but educational authorities

on Prince Edward Island, I believe,

3 will agree that it hasn't gained

much of a foothold here. Yet in her

f book, Miss Neatby implies that such

is the case by quoting from the

P. E. I. course of studies, to illus-

trate one of her favorite criticisms

of progressive education.

The quoted pssage reads: "The

home, the church, the community

at large all have their part to play as well as the school, but it

is the special task of the school

to guide the child through all his experiences toward the aim we have

in view-Good Citizenship."

"Is it?" asks Miss Nestby. "Is it not rsther the special function of the school to do what no other agency is equipped to do, con- centrate on the steady clay to” day job of conveying useful knowledge and developing the capacity for using it?"

This points up one of the flaws in the book. From an innocent sentence, in a course of study, Miss Nestlyy infers that drastic changes along progressive lines, threaten the schools of P. E. I. as well as the others in Canada, with "intel- lectual brarbsrlsm and moral anarchy."

Further, her expression of the "special function of the school to do what no other agency is equip- ped to do" is in direct contradic- tion to her wish that schools should do the work of the church -.teach religion.

"Unfortunately," says Miss Neat- by," the religious teaching now car- ried on in most Canadian schools. is, as it rule, not an integral part of the program. Like so many other things, it is pushed in as if in fear of missing-something good. The whole program of re-

ligious teaching in state schools

But Miss Neatby makes no sec- ret that her remedy is to go all the way back to "traditional" education. "It will be argued," she says, "that the strenuous intel- lectual, moral and even religious education here suggested (I can- not give it here) is aristocratic in character and far above the heads of the majority of child- ren. . . We should stop worrying

about why our high school stu- dents quit.' If they are offeredl abundant intellectual nourishment

and if they prove themselves un- able or unwilling to profit by it.l they should not only be allowed to qult,' they should be obiigedl to withdraw."
