PAYNE PEABODY COLLEGE FOR TEACHERS, NASHVILLE, TENN. The sovereign people who have founded and sustained the public schools to which you go today have definitely and finally committed the education of their children to you and not to another. In recent time‘s, certain designing citizens, particularly in our own sections. planning to promulgate their own pet policies. have loudly advanced the theory that inasmuch as the state owns the public elemen- tary and high school it can legally forbid or require the teaching oi such subjects in the curriculum as its whims may dictate I wish you to challenge this dog- ma on behalf of the public whose sovereignty is endangered by the fal- lacy therein. Such claim is made chiefly by those who exalt the legislative branch over other divisions of the government. whereas the three de- partments—legislative. judicial and executive—are required to consti- tute what we call the State. In the next place. the people who created these three governmental branches by electing representatives thereto are the State. In the third place. the public. as sole owner. has forever settled in its own mind that tho'publlc schools shall be entrusted only of schools. boards. superintendents of schools. and teachers. In order to gtve‘nec- cssary unification to school practice. ,tbe public permits state. and city legislative bodies to enact a. mini- mum of permissive legislation but it trusts none of these to manage its. schools. That task is assigned only to your group of public officials. Who. then. owns the public schools to which you are consecrat- ing your lives? The public. The public's ownership is vested in ‘Boards of Education. usually loc- ai boards. 'rhey own the school grounds. the buildings and equip- er have returned to their duties aft- er vacations of two Weeks spent in La Grangevlllc. N.

They employ and the superintendent. the latter they administer schools in every detail. Therefore neither the ownership nor he operation of the public ' schoo s to which you go are vested in the legislature. but in other public representatives. The public requires the legisla- Lure to participate by a subsidy in the promotion of public education. The constitution of the State usually urges the creation of such a subsid- izing fund. But the right to cone trol does not accompany this per- mission to cooperate. The public. through legislative bodies. having thus delegated this management to the school officials. cannot at the same time. retain it in itself. It may return it to itself or transfer it to another; but so long as such power is delegated to you and your associates among the various school boards it is not the privilege or the right of any other body to dictate what shall be taught and what shall not be taught to the chil- dren. This is manifestly as it should be; for the education of 100,000,000 clt- izens has become a task so vast and complicated that special training. seasoned experience. and expert knowledge are required. The people. as owners. have therefore made it impossible for the self-seeking and the unskilled to manipulate these in- stitutions of the children Just as they D have forbidden the courts to be con- ducted by laymen or .erverted by the whims of designing men. 4 Certainly the school will constant- ly seek the aid of legislative and of religious bodies. but if either the legislature or the church may ever- ride the constituted ~ educational agencies to which the people have delegated the management of their schools in one instance. they may as. same to do so in other instances un- til public education will fall into the hands of political schemers and fan- atical propagapdlsts who will utilize the machinery of education in carry- ing forward their own selfish pur- poses. God deliver the 23,000,000 children enrolled in the public schools of America from the coming of such a day. Neither you nor any other school official may. therefore. shift your responsibility for the development of sound character. correct idea and orderly intelligence in the min s of prospective citizens. The Judicial department of the government does not want it; the exeeuuve depart- ment cannot assume it; the legislat- ive department shall not have it. It is your obligation to alums definite and positive leadership of opinion with regard to your under- taking; for nothing is clearer than the earnestness of the founders of our government to provide educa~ tional opportunities for all men as a basis for the wise exercise of self. government which was entrusted to all men. Patiently and persistently. there. fore. you shall inform the parent) of the danger of thanvasion of the liberties of their children by the“ who plan to substitute their own prejudices for the safe and sans can. cation which the trained and me. cessfui experience of generations of teachers has approved. The price of intellectual freedom and of equality of educational op- portunity is eternal. Vigilance. ~Nors Bayes Pats One. . Over; 011 Pat Harrison BERLIN—(AP).

New G in At Brunswick Gives t One Of Largest School Sport Buildings The erection of the new gymna- sium ut the Brunswick School.
