So sound, in fact, that notten per cent. of our common school children in Canada receive it. It may be impossibleto have a national school system` in a "complete and thorough sense; but we r I mustgoas near to it as /possible. We : b have accepted the theory that the edu- 1 .' cation of children is the province of i the State, and,` having gained our point, we find the order a larger one than we had any idea of. We must makethe best job possible of what we have un- dertaken to do. I believe our educa- v tional system is too uniform and me- 3 chanical to be of much worth. Child- ren are taught vbyprote, like parrots. .1, The _e'ect aimed at is a record for the '1, -schools,not for the pupils.f Anyone who in people. in different parts of the contry; is painfully aware that our much-bragged- V about educational system in Canada is largely a delusion and a snare. , EDlTO_RIAL NOTE; If the O;-illis Times editor wishes to ` refute what THE Anvlmfcs has said concerning the Asylum at Orillia, he must stick to the Government reports, and not renger himself ridiculous by trying to establish his case by County Council resolutions which provenothing.
