    August 1, 1901

    Walla Walla College

    EGW

    “It is most difficult to practise right principles after having been so long accustomed to the practises of the world, but reforms must be entered into with heart and soul and will. Errors may be hoary with age, but age does not make error truth, nor truth error. Altogether too long have the old customs and habits been followed. The Lord would now have every idea that is false put away from teachers and students.”—Unpublished TestimonyPUR August 1, 1901, par. 1

    The Common Branches. “If teachers were receiving light and wisdom from the divine Teacher, the common, essential branches of education would be more thoroughly taught, and the Word of God would be honored and esteemed as the bread sent down from heaven, which sustains all spiritual life, binding the human agent with Christ in God.”—Special Testimonies on Education, 164, 165.PUR August 1, 1901, par. 2

    “The common branches of education should be fully and prayerfully taught.”PUR August 1, 1901, par. 3

    “Children should be educated to read, write, to understand figures, to keep their own accounts, when very young. They may go forward, advancing step by step in this knowledge.PUR August 1, 1901, par. 4

    “The education given in our schools is one-sided. Students should be given an education that will fit them for successful business life. The common branches of education should be fully and thoroughly taught. Bookkeeping should be looked upon as of equal importance with grammar. This line of study is one of the most important for us in practical life; but few leave our schools with a knowledge of how to keep books correctly.”PUR August 1, 1901, par. 5
