the Child soon satiated. And so, after
a long and loving study, he reached
the conclusion that the play-thingS of
the child should be simple, contrasting.
yet related, one with another, and of
kinds to suggest to the awakening |
mind ideas regarding color, form, size;
to be used in play, but directed in Syste- /
matte ways. So the wonderful gifts and /
occupations of the kindergarten had /
their birth, furnishing to the directed. |
playful activity of the child means for
the growth of mathematical, mechan-f
zeal and artistic talent. Froebel's own |
physical weakness in childhood led |
him to give great attention to physical |
development. He learned, as we all |
know, that unselfish joy is the best
promoter of health; that ailing bodies
are often but symbols of ailing minds.
He learned, too, that the free, indirect
| ed, even happy, exercise of children is
often eXcitingly excessive, and subject
| to unhealthful exposures and circum-
stances as we'll as moral dangers. Out
Of this knowledge, and his great insight
into the very heart of childhood, grew
the beautiful songs, games and exercis-
es of the kindergarten, by which every
muscle is strengthened, every faculty
of mind developed, every generous inn
pulse of heart encouraged, and all in
happy play that soon grows to be so
spontaneous as to hardly need direction.
This was Froebel's aim, to furnish the
means for the harmonious develop
ment of the whole being. Education,
to him, meant this; and without too
many conflicting circumstances, in the
hands of conscientious, self-sacrifcing
follower of his, the Kindergarten may
be what he named it, "The Paradise
of childhood and will be also the
surest start to useful, happy and virtu-
Gus lives. In three countries already
it forms a part of the system of public
education. Six thousand children in
one of the cities Of our own country
are furnished it's benefits by the public
fund. Noble lives and generous pur-
ses have been given for it. The fore
most educators of every country have
long felt its need as link between
J the home and school. Its principles,
: applied during the most impossible
) years of a persons life, are the best
seed sown for that more all sided edu-
cation, the demand for which is grow
ing louder every day-for that more
self-regulating, loyal citizenship that is
sorely needed for that kinder, better
humanity hoped for. Through all
apathy, through all opposition, in spite
, of all discouragements and failures, the
name Of Friedrich Froebel has been
/ steadily growing dearer to the world,
and the work in which he died has been
/ advancing. On June 21st, 1852, Froe-
bel died. With mind clear to the last,
fervent, joyful, loving, he went home
like child to his pure source" " Take

families were compelled to vacate their

edictory at the commencement exer-
cises of the Oshkosh Normal. His
theme was The Influence of Normal
Schools upon Social Problems" 1t is
spoken of as being the finest valedictory
ever delivered at Oshkosh.
The non-appearance of the Educa-
tional last week must be laid to the
Fourth of July and the State Teachers
Association meeting. The full report
of the meeting will appear in the
Journal Of Education, so we shall say
nothing about it except that it was hot,
hurried, and crowded.
The annual Institute will be held
two weeks earlier than usual this year.
This was the best arrangement which
the Supt. could make. He was obliged
to hold it then or else let it go un til
October, which, Of course, would be
too late.
Teachers who wish Institute circu-
lars will please notify the Supt. and
they will be forwarded to them.
The Educational will be discontin-
ued until August Is.

When city is located like Kenosha,
with enterprising competitors for the
farmers trade all around, it would
seem as though great effort should be
made to secure fair proportion of that
trade and extra inducements be offered
farmers to come here rather than go
elsewhere. KenoSha is more desirably
located for trading purposes for large
class of farmers west of here than eth
er Racine or Waukegan. 1t is a more
convenient market and should get
most of such trade, but it is claimed,
whether Justly or not, that better prices
can be obtained for farm products in
these places, and that the money real.
lied can be spent to greater advantage.
This ought not to be so. We don't
believe it is 50, but it is true that Ke-
nosha does not receive an amount of
trade proportional to its facilities as
compared with these cities, and an ex-
ira effort ought to be made to reclaim
that which naturally belongs to it. We
would suggest the establishment of
market days to aid in bringing about
a better understanding between our
merchants and the farmers--to bring
buyers and sellers together and furnish
farmers all the facilities possible for
dlsposing of their produce at the high
est market prices here, and bringing
that trade into its natural channel.
Such an enterprise would, we believe.
be healthful to Kenosha's mercantile
trade, while it would be an undoubted
benefit and advantage to the farmer.
Stock-buyers find in market days the
most advantageous means and time of
making purchases, and purchases of
stock means money to the farmer and
trade to the city merchants. Sales can
be made cheaper, while at the same
time buyers can afford to pay more
than they could under other and less
favorable circumstances. This will be
an advantage to both. What is true of
stock is also true of all kinds of farm
produce. We offer these remarks as
mere suggestions. Should an effort be
made to act upon them the TELEGRAPH
is open to aid the enterprise as far as it
lies within its power.
