A. Courtis, of the'edu- cation school, yesterday in 'a lecture on "International Comparisons in [Child Development," He presented data secured to represent a chance sampling of conditions in the public schools of different countries.} "The buildings," he said, "were without exception less perfectly adapted to educational purposes than those built in America the last ten years, and had much mnore meager equipmnen tand comforts . The text- books and teaching universally con- formed in an older type than that generally prevalent in the public schools in our larger cities. \ "The problems of management, supervision, and personnel seemed to be very exactly the same as in this country, complicated by one addi- tional factor less evident in America, namely caste. Of the four countries visited, Italy had made and was making the most effort to modernize her schools, and the Scottish schools proved nearest to American schools in spirit. "In all countries the problem of in- dividual differences was being given special attention, and well it is that it should be; for the individual dif- ferences that might be ascribed to national or climatic conditions." Between February and June, 1931, about 14,000 children were measured with respect to height, weight, stand- ing broad jump, eruption of perma- nent teeth, mental ability and spell- ing in the cities of Rome, Geneva, Ipondon and Dumfermline, Soot- land. Similar data was available from the schools of Detroit. The purpose of the study was to compare the growth curves of the children in these. different countries to see 'whether or not their developmental differences result from the marked difference in climatic and cultural conditions. "The study was not undertaken," Dr. Courtis said, "for the purpose of determining the relative efficiency of instruction in America and in for- eign schools and and in no sense is a survey of foreign education."
