NOTWELL ENOUGH, _ GAYNOR PR PROTESTS. Our choot ater System Fails From | Cramming, He Tells New City Educators. HOUSEWORKISSPURNED And Boys Refuse to Work With Hands, Though Poorly Fitted to Use Brains. | Girls refuse to do housework. ‘We are tryitg to teach the school | @hiléren too much. ‘The result is we do not teach | ‘thom well. | ‘Foo many subjects are taught to the children. | In the navy the mazim is that the speed of a squadron at sen is | that of the slowest ship. ‘The speed with which a clase can go along must have some rule like ‘that.

Mayor Gaynor said these things, among others, to-day, to the newly ap- Pointed members of the Board of Edu- cation. The new appointees were am @embied in the City Hall to take the oath of office. LONG TRYING TO DO TOO MUCH, SAYS MAYOR. ve Ponpag sald, in part: e a notion which I have long utirhaiues that those in charge of the city’s common achools here, and 1 suppose elsewhere to som nt, @te trying to teach the children too much, The result is that we do not teach them well. Too many sub- Jects are taught to the children, in my belief. When you overload chil- they get @ @isgust for the whale ing and they do not learn much. ‘You cannot h children by ap- plying @ standard thet only the brightest can coniorm to or keep pace with. Now, I may be all wrong, but I think a large percentage, if pot the largest percentage of chil- dren: in our schools are just sub- merged—they just about have their Bones above water struggling to breathe, They have more than they Berea Sete teeck, Wem, toe @uch, and the result is they come out with a superficial knowledge , About a lot of things, but no accu- Pate knowledge about anything.
