sixth annual meeting of tho "National
Education association department of

improvement of educational conditions In
rural communities and the dividing of
school courses Into two six-year periods.
elementary and advanced.
Discussing tho " latter" problem,' Charles
II. Judd, director of the University of
Chicago' school of education, said in
part:
"The upper elementary grades are
being departmental ixed and the courses
are being greatly enehod. Within tho
high school there Is also urgent need
for reorganisation. The four years of high
schpol work, as at present arranged, are
inadequate to give the student a general
survey of human experience.
"Conditions are rip for a general re

over the city by Oeorge T. Morton,
chairman of tho commission.
Speaking of city planning work.
Mr. McElfresh Bald:
"City planning has been undergo
ing many changes, from the one ex
treme of "city beautiful," to the
other of "city practical," and then
bock to the happy mean. City plan
ning is becoming a well-defined
science and art. This work has to
do with the material and physical de
velopment of the community those
tMngs which one can see with the
eyes and It would so treat those
matters as to make the community
better place to work In, to live In
and to spend one's leisure and grow
Ing time In. It would apply the same
principles to the layout of the city
as a whole that are applied In the

cities. It I. obvious that Industry and MAJOR BARKER REPORTS
cusincss are ine aominauns lacior in
the growth of the community, and If
they are not right, the city does not
prosper. If the plan of the city is
worked out with the same attention to
efficiency anil economy In providing for
th best working of business that the
successful business man shows In his
own plant, then provisions for suitable
living and recreation conditions can be
readily worked out to harmonise. So
cially, the two latter are just as Im
portant as the former, for the contented
worker Is one of the city's best aasets.
It Is absolutely essential to work out
a comprehensive plan for the co-related
future development of all the city func
tions. This does not mean burying the
city under a great debt for glorious Im
mediate Improvements, but it does mean
making the city appropriations of each
year go as far aa posHlble In relieving
the moat urgent needs, and It means
forcing or Inducing private Individuals.
