At Education by Joy NieAlIisfor ‘Educanto‘ â€" More Destructive Than The Aâ€"Bomb The idea, said council presiâ€" dent, Mrs. Karl Stoyan, is to make comprehensive studies in cch of these with the possibility of recommendations to the Onâ€" tirio Federation of Home and School Associations emerging. She hopes that the studies might involve other local groups â€"â€" for instance, teacher training might be of considerable interest to _ local university _ women‘s clubs; the needs of youth is a "Another said that teaching the babes to spell cat by using the vocables Câ€"Aâ€"T was a danâ€" gerous mistake; they must learn to recognize the total syllable cat at a glance. This baffled me conâ€" sidcrably, seeing that my mother had taught me at the age of three, by the oldâ€"fashioned and discredited system, to read not only cat but a lot of longer words. "I bring in these reminiscences to make the point that this pedaâ€" gogical bloody nonsense has been going on for a long time. It is nothing new."

"Millions of the words that ‘“‘:h. forth annually, in books, political speeches, Ph.D, disserâ€" tations and perhaps especially in reports by alleged experts of one sort or another, are sheer gib» berish, meaningless or unintel« ligible or both." So claims J. B. McGeachy in a Fimancial Post article that sparkles and crackles with his scintillating wit and perception. "I remember one damn fool who explained that you must on no account expound the idea of uneâ€"half by slicing an apple in two: aneâ€"half, he said gravely, was the relationship between one and two, an abstract notion which must be implanted finmly if the immortal souls of the boys and girls were not to be imperilled. matter of concern of the social planning council. This particular article of his appeared in the August 24 issue and nothing I have read in the past year or two has given me quite as much pleasure or expert insight into the credulous world of the educational expertise. So indignant is our Mr. Meâ€" Geachy with the mannern in which the pedagogues maul, mangle and maim our English language that he cusses them at least three times during his disâ€" course, But always with charm, taste and perspicuity. Indeed, those whom he damns would do well to observe how he damns: For here is our language at work in the most deseriptive and ecoâ€" nomically meaningful way. He leaves no stone unturned, trustees and teachers as well as administrators and their specialâ€" ists, are scratched deep beneath their moss, and he dips generâ€" ously into his own colorful and effective past to make a point on teaching: "Before I was permitted to talk on the awesome responsiâ€" bility of instructing a covey of pubescent farm boys and girls in Aâ€"Bâ€"C and 1â€"2â€"3, I was obliged to attend lectures by alleged proâ€" phets and diviners in the art.

Fantans are an elegant version of a dinner roll madesso that buttery layers of fluffy roll can be peeled off one by one.

This current nonsense to which he refers has been aptly dubbed "Educanto" by its critics and the example Mr. McGeachey gives in his article is, in his considered opinion, not the worst of its kind.
