Abstract
During the depression public education has been subjected to serve criticism by the taxpayers who are demanding retrenchment in the schools. Some critics have asserted that the methods of teaching and the subject matter of such basic courses as English have undergone few changes since those days of the little red school house when a teacher could be hired for a "song". These statements have raised in the minds of those most interested such questions as - What have been the changes in the methods of the teaching of English composition since 1850?
