X - v" EXALTS SOLID LEARNING Continued from page one I' Dr. Knight's subject was "The Improvement of Teaching," and he stayid closely by it thruout the discourse. He came to Greerisbroo at the invitation of the Faculty Research Club, <ut_ .the menders' of This organization were joined by the teachers in the ,-ity sjchools, extension students and touchers and others to make up. a very large-group.of hearers. The speak i>r ."was-" presented by President F. I). Blflferd. ; ?-? ?? ' Dr. Knight said that a headlonR, rush-in educational progress has been, perhaps, accompanied l>y a lowering of the standards and a denial of students and other.', softening tend en-- j~ cies in the educational progress' have been observed in elementary, second ary -and higher education. In the 1st ( named) Dr. Knight noted a reaction hiraihst anv sort of sustained appli-. cation or steady drill as imposing un 1 lie freedom of the-'individual. There-has arisen a belief that to mas- j. teiv knowledge is to crush initiative and cramp creative ubility. ObeMviue cnmc.s. lii he. regarded live vice and thb rebellious student s-oftt'U commended for his'self assera. These buttpffly ideas in.edu.rdlon 'ought to -be "banished, he .de-' r.il driven back to th^ir ereaorx .

' j Iks is due tof faculty standards and methods, inability to make, adjustment. in new environment, and imiicrfeet instruction yn fundamentjij.i. ' ' . r .V Education* is encumbered by an inert ia toward the real theories and practices that obtain. The veils and myths should be torn aside and the dangers of unsubstantial jind halfheated ' study 'made cl^ar. Education in theory and pra^icg ?fjeeds a little iron, needs to get rid of the softness which has crept K ?w the standards' ot, school work. Freedom' is it precious, thing, hut |t has to be< worked for. ... Laurens News ? ^ T". .?r Mr. Hugh Cainc is critically ill at his home... . -?Thc-Aninial wtnehwas OhcltT on the oth aat Bethel A. M.
