V - V. THE WILMINGTON DISPATCH, SUNDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 29, 1916. PAGEJSIXTEEN THINGS FUNDAMENTAL By M. B. ANDREWS n Dr. W. T. Laparade, professor in the Department of History at Trinity College, once made this remark to the members of the ministerial band there: "Never take up your time-with unimportant details; always preach about things fundamental in the mak ing of a man". I considered the re marks a wise and timely one when Dr. Laprade made it; and the more I rpfleet uDon it The average school teacher is just about like other people, and many of them are a great deal more so. Teach - ers, like fathers and mothers, often take too much for granted. It takes an upright, clear-thinking sensible man to see and gasp the fundamen tals of education and of life ; yet many of us teachers feel inclined to lose patience with students who ask, "What's the use?" . Young and liberty loving high school students are requested, for ex-! ample, to grapple with the grammar nrnhiems nt what thev consider a dead language. the Latin; and they naturally resasonably ask the healthy question, "What's the use?" They then fortify their position by asking another sensible question: goodwill it do me." What ! "You wtve to take Latin," says the bewildered teacher, "because our standard colleges require it." "We do not aim to attend college," the thoughtful young statesmen reply: "we aim to work for our living sure enough work." "Well, even if you do not aim to attend college," explains the teacher, "you must take Latin because it is one of the courses named CHURCHES, BAPTIST. First Corner Fifth and Market streets, Rev.

Subject of service at 8 p. m: "Moses And Luther; A Study of Characters The public is t cordially. invited to these services, j i in the State High School Handbook'." That is final authority for many teach ers just as perhaps it should be for all. The trouble is not with the authori ty; the trouble is with the argument it is faulty and unsatisfactory give the students the facts. Tell them, for example, that for centuries the city or Kome was tne capital 01 me world ; that the Roman Emperor was (worshipped as the son of Jupiter; that Roman law today is the basis of most 1 modern qivil law; that the Roman Em pire had a population of one hundred twenty million people one fifth more than that of the entire United States today; that the Roman soldier was the world's war hero "Fight like a Roman" being the highest pos sible challenge to courage; that Latin was the standard language of all these peoples; and that a very large proportion of all the worlds in the English language today are derived from the L.atin: tell tne students these simple, and well known facts, make it evident that you believe them ifi yourself and teach always the things fundamental in the making of the j language and I think you will -have ! little trouble with your students in i Latin, To High School students facts are j as interesting as fancies and in many j instances are worth a great deal more, LA.U sensible people and most young ! people are sensible frequently ask ! the question, "What's the use?" and j it is as unwise for teachers, as it is ! for fathers and mothers, to take too much for granted.
