Education
ONE of the most important possibilities before us lies in the direction of
Education.
We have by other lines arrived at much the same conclusions as have the
education authorities through their experiences.
This is briefly, that the secret of sound education is TO GET EACH PUPIL TO
LEARN FOR HIMSELF, INSTEAD OF INSTRUCTING HIM BY DRIVING KNOWLEDGE INTO HIM
ON A STEREOTYPED SYSTEM. The method is to lead the boy on to tackle the
OBJECTIVE of his training, and not to bore him with the preliminary steps at
the outset. The education authorities have come to recognise us as would-be
helpers in the same field, the aim of both of us being to produce healthy,
prosperous citizenship. They take the intellectual development, we go rather
more for the development of "character," and that, after all, is the most
important attribute for prevention of the social diseases of slackness and
selfishness, and gives the best chance to a man of a successful career in
any line of life.
We are endeavouring to help the education authorities in every way that we
can. They are working entirely in accord with us in a number of important
centres.
January, 1912.
