The Jurisdiction Of Mental Discipline

The real and designed purpose OF
our schools is to prepare the student
for the practical duties OF life. DIS
cinIine of the nind, then, lies at the
base of our scheme of education and
the question to be answered by the
professional teacher is: How may
the greatest degree of mental disclp-
line be attained?'

at the course of study that has been

at the course of study that has been
adopted by the school authorities
throughout the country, and consid-
ers the time devoted to it, will dis
cover that about all student can do
is to memorize the textbooks, with
no time left to assimilate what he
has learned. To prove that the real
purpose has not been accomplished,
ask recent graduate of the high
school to work out a problem in par
tl4l payments. He was an adept at
1t 10 the grammar school, but that
was four years ago. He did not
make the law his own, and has to go
to his book to find out what it is, and
the chances are that even then he
will appeal to some one to explain it
for him.. His mind has not been dis
ciplined to the ability of indepen-
dent thought.
We do not decry the curriculum of
our schools, but the manner in which
student is put through it, or rather
in which it is put into a student
1t becomes nauseating mass that
leads to disease of mind and body.
The processes of mental discipline,
when properly persued, are delight
even to childhood, and the happiest
hours of the child's life are passed
while under the kindly pressure of an
intelligent and conscientious teacher,
who really teaches young ideas how
to shoot.
These processes, however, become
irksome and NEE drudgery when
pursued through false and unnatural
methods. The remedy or relief that
the untutored boy resorts to is trus
ancy, and fear of consequent punish
ment is all that prevents the remedy
from becoming almost universal.
The true remedy lies in the rever-
sal of methods making the acquisi~
ton of knowledge an incident of a
disciplinary course-the means to an
end, and that end the power of inde>
pendent thought.

A Poker.playing Millionaire.

A millionaire in New York who dis
penses princely hospitality, has great
liking for poker. One evening, While
playing with a foreign Minister, the game
along at midnight all at once became
exciting. The deal gave the millionaire
the eight, nine and ten and lack of
hearts. He discarded spade and got
the queen of hearts. The Minister called
for two cards. He had already three
kings. and in the draw got the fourth.
Quietly the players began to bet. The
pile amounted at last to $500, 900, when
the millionaire called his opponent.
Wher the Minister laid down his four
kings the banker put his straight flush
beside them without a word The Min
lister seemed little surprised, but merely
said: VERY good; the money is yours"
He had lost $500, 900, but it did not sour
him bit. The game was not resumed,
but he talked as pleasantly as if he had
won fortune instead of losing one.
The banker seemed embarrassed, and
his friends, who had dropped out of the
game. were uncomfortable. He decided
on the spot that it would not do to have
any more poker-playing in his house.
1t might be said that he drew his friends
there to fleece them. He still PLAYS a
little game now and then, but only at the
club.-N Y. Post.
