W. Crabtreo re views in an admirable way tho growth of a spirit of co-operntlon botwoen tho high sch'ools and tho university u movement begun by Cancollor Can field and strengthened by Chancellor Andrews. Mr. Crabtreo is correct in saying that a largo Bharo of tho cfodit for thljB improved cooperation be tween these parts or our stato educa tion system is due to tho public school men who have insisted that university ideals and methods must be modified by local conditions. But tho writor Is sorry that Mr. Crabtree's articlo gives the Impression that n ma jority of tho university tcachorfi.havo .always opposed theso- rnddlflcationa. 'Since tho writor has bpen connected with tho university three times as long as Mr. Crabtreo, he bcl loves ho knows this charge Ih Incorrect; and for theso reasons: "So great was tho confidence of uni versity men that Mr. Crabtreo would reflect tho wisdom and oxporlenco "of tho public school men that during tho last year or two of his inspectorship tho committee on accrcditod schools never had a session. Mr. Crabtreo alone put on and took off schools from tho list, raisod and lowered credit points, accredited this und thatjmb" Ject without over an objection from the faculty.
