“There are two main purposes m education. One is to help people to earn a living, the other to help people to live,” said -Miss V. M. Crcig, principal of Wellington Girls’ College, in her annual report. “A large and no the least important part ol one’s life is concerned with something more than earning a livelihood, for man cannot live onlv unto himself; he is a social being with a duty to his 'fellow man. to the community ’in which lie lives, and to the world in general. It seems to us that in training a child the schoM must send him out to meet the demand of the calling lie is to follow in life; and the school fails, if at the same time it does not so equip and enrich hi,n physically, mentally, and spiritually that he may with profit not only to* himself but to others occupy lus moments of leisure and live more iul > and therefore more happily, so that he may play his part adequately as a citizen and as a member of society. It the school discovers and educates the child’s capacity, develops his normal sense, and teaches him to solve the great theorem of Liveableness of Life, it has fulfilled its mission, and is not unworthy of its high calling.
