T0RTUREs OF SCHOOL.

Children are naturally graceful
and when allowed toact freely will
generally assume such attitudes
aud such movements as are most
favorable to elegance OF carriage
and business of proportion. When
noticed during their unrestrained
moments of play, nothing is more
beautiful in animal life than the
vigorous boy and girl in action or
during their rare moments OF re-
pose. Their rapidly, facility,and
precision Of movementa are marvel
Gus to behold. Anatomy has been
termed hymn to deity. Its dis
play in the full vitality Of child
hood gives the highest expression
10 all its sacred music. Divine har-
mony and order are most striking
~ illustrated by its free action of
the young, whose muscles, great
rs they are in number and various
ia purpose, are worked with such
accuracy and quickness of aiterna-
ton that the only result seems to
be a uniform flow OF graceful mo-
ton.
Children, naturally so graceful in
freedom, become exceedingly awk-
ward under constraint No sooner
do they observe the eye Of author
ity upon them than they are
changed creatures. Their heads
hang, their eyes blink, their ex-
preston assumes q scared look,
their whole body stiff and an an
gular in movement. So great is
the change that the frank and fiex-
ible child, SO beautiful to sight in
the playground, seems only shy
and uugainly BOBBY in the school
room.
The constraint to which the
young are ordinarily subjected in
school is unnecessarily severe, and
is apt to have very i'll effect not
only upon their bearing but upon
their health. The fixed postures
they are expected to assume are
so repugnant to their organization
that, however disposed to comply
they are forced by nature to resist
them. The very effort they make
to obey leads to the most ungain-
ly variations from the perpendic-
ular and rectangular requirements
of school department. The gro
cesque movements observed i'm a
tlass of pupils while reciting I'M
der the eye OF a master are SO ma
ny instructive protests against his
rigid rule that they must stand,
like platoon of soldiers, erect to
their work. Fastened to a GER
tain spot, and forced to keep their
heads more or less upon a COM
mon level, their natural elasticity
unable to find the vent it requir-
es; bulges out, as it were, in
strange and irregular movements.
Some will swing like pendulUm;
some twist their two legs into the
semblance Of a plated whip-cord I;
some vex the leaves of
their books into dogs ears; some
wrench off the buttons Of their
waistcoats; some torture their
pockets into holes, some devour
their handkerchiefs. and the rest
will be either squirming their
DcdieS, squirting perpetually, or
be seized with an irresistible fl
of coughing.
Again, behold them at their
forms, with the desk of unvary-
ing height and the seats without
back. Who would recognize
the graceful child of the play
ground in the crumped deformity
with tongue lolling out, rounded
shoulders, twisted spine, sink
ing head, arms akimbo, and fin
