n. What reforms in the architecture of modern school buildings and in
school furniture and apparatus should be recommended.
o. Whether the existing educational systems may be best adapted to
the recent enormous increase in all departments of knowledge by dividing the
educational term into three periods, during the first of which the scholar
should be taught the merest rudiments of the largest practicable number of
branches of knowledge, but the details of none except his own language and
matters necessarily incident thereto; and during the second of which periods
he should be taught the exact details of a special course of instruction,
selected with reference to his future calling in life; and during the last of
which he shall be taught the practical application of technical knowledge to
the subjects involved in his proposed life-work.
p. How far uniformity of scholastic attainments should be required,
and how far prescribed courses of study should be adapted to the intellectual
characteristics of individual students.
q. Whether the manual of arms and the simplest principles of tactics
should be taught in the common schools, as involving all the substantial bene-
fits now derived from what is known as calisthenics, and giving the students
in addition thereto the benefits of superior discipline and decorum, and pro-
viding, for the sake of the State, the rudiments of the knowledge necessary to
convert the citizen into a soldier for the defense of his country.
r. The importance of a National Civil Service Academy in which
students selected from each representative district throughout the whole
country shall be educated and trained for the Civil Service as such students
are now educated for the Military and Naval Service in the Military and
Naval Schools.
s. The importance of a Scientific Education for common soldiers and
marines, to the end that when not engaged in military operations they may be
employed in scientific observations and explorations under the direction of
qualified officers, and to the further end that such soldiers and marines may
be saved from the habits of dissipation and vice engendered in idleness.
t. The history, influence, results, condition, and prospects of Educa-
tion in different countries.
