I'd just like to say thank you. Quite a good read.

Anytime! What is interesting is that some of this stuff was controversial then but even if I took a person from 1909 and showed them our schools today, either they will have a conniption or go into a rage. I can't blame them either. I know according to the article, they had their problems and shortcomings then, but at least the schools turned out a better caliber of product. I have an old school mathbook, originally printed in 1873 although I have the 1907 reissue, the math problems in there are a challenge.
