From the report of a schoolmasters' conference:--

"That we should spread our education wider, and not allow a boy to

spend too much time on specialising is a good idea, but it is rather

difficult to carry out in practice. It means switching the boy's mind

from one subject to another. The whole day is spent in this

way--switching from one subject to another, and therefore it is very

difficult."--_United Empire_.

And it sounds painful too.
