ONE IMPRESSION ~ FROM ED. I
By Professor Richmond H. Kirtland
My only contact with the summer session is by way of a course
theoretically described as the history of education, What its actual
description should be ean only be known when the last bell has struck
On August 15th, for we think of history in three tenses, and we think
of method cs controlled chiefly by the questions of students and by
thoir own responses. We try to give them whet they seem to need most.
i fow treits in the summer pzgople stund out in this procedure.
There is very little marking of time among theme They want to make
their days count. But since most of them are working teachers in the
state of New York, thcy are likely to estimate valucs after high school
or lowcr grade fesnion. They like their assignments in dcfinitc, smi1l1
doses, Thty arc rethcr more ecger for facts then for principles, for
devices then for methods, for credits then for personel growth, It is
no doubt to be expccetcd in the system under which they work thet re-
spcct for cuthority, or at least its docile acceptance, should be
pretty ducely ingrcined. No metter how logical or important a new bit
of induction my be, thsoir instent recction springs to the syllzbus
end regents cxuminetions, In general, eny method demanding extre tinc
in tecching is voted impractical, cny conclusions contrevening cpprovcé
texts cane standcrd authorities cre off the line of merch in a busy
world. Over and over one hecrs them scying that they know how their
broi.d is buttercd. So while they abe tolercnt of new ideas, and cven
ecger cbdout them personally, one is fcirly certain thet the main
quustion in their minds is not how will this matter cffcet the minds
of my punils, but how will it cffeet ths retcnticn or my job? Any dis-
taste for this condition is more than offset by the necessity for
corning < living under tho system.
I should say, then, that added yozrs end expericnce heve sucde the
sunmm.r school students, as a whole, rether more conscrvetive then
colly. undcrgraduates ere likcly to be. Like incoming frcshmen,
summcr son00l pcople ere about five sevenths funcementclists, by test.
Which foot, of coursc, boergs out the general th.sis of tnis cocumcnt.

IS THE WATER TURNED ON YET?
Water, water everywhere,
But not a drop to drink;
Water in the streams and lakes,
But nothing in the sink.
Water, water everywhere,
But none for dirty faces,
Unless it comes from wells or pumps,
Or other distant places.
Wash your face in vithy,
Never mind the soap,
Lots of powder so the folks
Wontt notice it, you hone.
Ginger ale's for shaving, °
Gin slicks down your heir,
Sunback dresses disappoare
(Should dirty backs go baro?)
Prohibition cgents,
Watching from on high,
Geily smile cand lcugh cloud
As Albany gocs ary.
Dishes all are groecsy,
centt gct off the goo;
Pots ane prns cnd silver
éll arc grecsy too.
Since the main wes bustcd,
Since the pipe wos spoiled,
On figures cnd math tcblies
Tho men have toiled cné toil
Fixing of the conduit
A411 depends on mth.
(Wish those guys would lenrn
to «de,
SO I could teke ¢ bath.)
Dirty faces tround me,
Dirty necks, the same;
Dirty hands end dishes,
Ain't it a
dirty shame?
