Abstract
THE report of the Board of Education for the year 1915–16 is a document to which, in the present state of public expectation, more than usual interest will be attached. It is naturally concerned in large measure rith the work and problems of elementary education, upon which by far the larger proportion of the public funds are, by the very circumstances of the case, cxpended But it is now fairly generally admitted that we cannot have a sound solution of the problems of education, or raise an educational edifice worthy of the name, or secure the right type of educated dcctorate, or place education upon its highest plane, unJess we make much more adequate provision for the training of the great mass of the people.
