Students today can't prepare bark to calculate their problems. They depend upon their slates which are more expensive. What will they do when the slate
is dropped and it breaks? They will be unable to write!
—Teacher's Conference, 1703
Students today depend upon paper too much. They don't know how to write on a slate without getting chalk dust all over
themselves. They can't clean a slate properly. What will they do when they run out of paper?
—Principal's Association, 1815
