[The Infant System by Samuel Wilderspin]@TWC D-Link bookThe Infant System CHAPTER I 22/37
The other departments are equally good in most things, and are well managed, as far as regards a good secular education being given, and better I think than any similar institution in England.
At Glasgow the same master whom I taught still exists.
I have not seen the schools for many years, but I hear from those who have been trained there, that nothing can work better.
The Glasgow Committee, with Mr.Stow at their head, deserve the thanks of the whole community for having applied the principles on which the Infant School System is based, to juveniles, and carried out and proved the practicability of it for the public good.
I told them this in lectures at Glasgow long ago, and exhibited before them children to prove the truths I promulgated, both there and in other parts of Scotland, to convince a doubting and cautious public that my views were practicable.
