Abstract
EDUCATION has a conservative and a progressive meaning. There are some who regard it mainly as a means for preserving civilisation, and there are others who would emphasise its function in preparing each generation to understand and to solve the problems of a more abundant and complicated world. The attainment of both aims is facilitated by the provision of apparatus, materials,and methods. Books, pictures, museums, laboratories, and workshops are available on a more lavish scale than ever before, and new devices for acquiring knowledge or skill are continually tested and applied.
