The school reform movement in progress
throughout the country has struck New York,
and one feature of 1t there Is a proposition made
in the board OF education to dispense with all
text books on grammar in the public schools,
and to conduct such study orally and by exam
pie. 1t is argued that the capacity for speaking
and writing correct English has not been in the
least developed by committing to memory in
youth mass OF arbitrary rules. The New York
papers seem disposed to favor the raid upon the
text books, and the Graphic puts the objections
to their use In forcible light, saying that It is
sometimes forgotten that the language itself
preceded the written grammar, and that
the most correct forms of expression are
not at all the work OF the grammar On the
contrary, the language Is more the rule for
the written grammar than Is the written gram
mar the rule for the language. The correct form
OF expression OF four hundred years was In use
without the aid OF any written grammar and If
II mas changed 1t changes quite Independent Of
grammatical rule This entire system OF rules
anu exceptions Is the work and amusement of
% vi pedants, who have, as 1t were built up
.uen u grammatical Scanoding after the edifice of
the language had already been erected Does
any one imagine that the language would snfyer
ungramm attcally were all the written grow
mars destroyed? Do the grammars really nro
serve the language In its purity? OF two bovs
one OF whom learns the grammatical theory
thoroughly, and has all the rules and definitions
at his tongues end, but bred among people who
use incorrect methods OF expression and pronun-
Citation, and another who knows nothing what,
ever Of the theory, but Is all his life In contact
with those who use the most correct form of
English, which Is most likely "to speak and
write correctly?n

One would suppose that parent should know
best what he wanted his child to learn at school.
This was the view taken by citizen of Pome-
roy, Ohio, who directed his daughter to refuse
to take drawing lessons as one of the branches
taught in the public school course In that
place The board of education, however, held
that they were the proper judges, and expelled
the girl for not complying with their rules.
Thereupon the parent In question brought suit
against the board for damages, and gained his
case, as he deserved to do. In the absence Of
his reasons for the exception he wished, we
think he made mistake in drawing the line at
drawing; but we nevertheless commend the
plucky father for asserting his rights and con-
graduate him on his success. 1t is one of the
great defects of our public school system
that it is made a sort of procrustean bed, to fit
which some children must be stretched out and
Others cut down, without regard to the circum-
stances surrounding them or what they propose
to do In after life.

One of the most satisfactory features of the
scheme of comprehensive improvements entered
upon by the Board Of Public Works was the
plan identifying the city by planting the parked
streets and avenues with the best variety Of
shade trees, under the supervision of parking
commission composed OF men Of the experience
and taste of VIM. Saunders, superintendent of
the Government Propagating Garden; VIM. r.
Smith, superintendent of the Government b.
tanical Garden, and John Saul, the veteran
florist. 1t may be stated in this connection
that the suggestion for the appointment of these
gentlemen to carry out this project came from
ex-Mayor Wallach, and was promptly acted
upon by Governor Shepherd. The results of
the work OF the commission are set forth in an
interesting article in another column, from
which it appears that no less than sixty thou
sand thrifty young trees OF the varieties best
adapted for the requirements have been success
filly planted in our city; which can now fairly
calm the name of the Forest City" OF the
country. 1t should be added that the admirable
work accomplished by the parking commission
in thus adjoining the city, is purely labor of
love, as they get no compensation for their SER
vices.

1t is observable that some of the democratic
papers are preparing for the defeat of the whole
or greater part of the state ticket In New York
by claiming in advance that the republicans are
going to inaugurate system OF counting out IN
the state. However well inclined they may be,
we have to remark that II the republicans or
any other political organization can get ahead
of the democratic party in New York in that
way they will have to get up very early in the
morning and work very hard and very sly all
day

The Real Estate Movement.

1t has been pointed out in THE STAR for the
past year that an activity and rise In real estate
In Washington was inevitable and early, and all
the indications now are in the line of the fulfill
ment of our prediction. The real estate brokers,
without exception, report the demand for good
houses, both to purchase and rent, as unprece-
denied; that at no time since 1872 has 1t been so
great Rents are advancing, and desirable
houses are daily becoming more scarce. Land
lords are vieing with each other in undermining
and otherwise improving their houses to meet
the demand. 1t Is almost impossible to
walk square In the more desirable portions
of the city without encountering piles OF
brick, morter. and other building material
either being used in remodeling and repairing
houses now built, or building new. Builders
Say that at no time for six years have they been
SO crowded with work as at present. The i'm
provementS being made are by no means con-
lined to residence property, as casual survey
of the principal business StreetS,-Pennsylvani
avenue, It'll, Sth, 9th, 18TH F streets, and New
York ayenue-will show. Old stores are being
mOderniZed and new ones erected that are
credit and ornament to any commercial city.
We think it safe to say that the value of the
improvements erected during the past six
months and now in course of erection is
more than double that of any two years
In the last seven, and we are glad to
now being made Is much more substantial.
About year ago we said to our readers, 'sNow
is the time to make Improvements. at no time
within the past twenty years has such an oppor-
tun1ty offered" LahOrers were then plenty and
wages were at the lowest. Skilled mechanics
were walking our streets, begging for work at
any price. Brick were selling at 4.50 per thou
sand, lumber at $l4 to SIS per thousand, and all
kinds of building material and supplies at cor
3espondingly low prices We then predicted
that such condition of things could not con-
7inue; there must be an advance from the then
starvation prices of labor and material. And
We advised those contemplating building, and
