Children are the germ lie of the future. 1t is
through our children that our best and most
manent work must be done, 1t is of vital import
snce that the claims of children be well understood
and fully met Children have the right to be we'll
forn. We do not mean born into wealth rank,
which is often to be iborn but born of parents of
good health and habits and just convictions and so
born into conditions favorable to sound physical,
mental and moral development, Entailed evils are
overcome, if at all, with difficulty. The physical
and moral deiormities of vicious parentage sweep
down the ages with ever increasing power; filling
our reform schools and asylums and corrupting the
home, the chu4ch and the state. Indeed there
wo Id be no redemption for mea under this law of
increase were it not that families nations and races
break down utterly under this entail of crime. In
ew of all these facts it is not too much to hop
that it will be considered the wisest policy to en-

We give an abstract Of an excellent essay on
Vacations and Vacation Schools. The paper
will be printed in full in the PRESS at an early
date:
Vacations are e necessity of modern life with its
stress and strain. If you not in the race your
self, you yet see the dust and hear the din Ply
scians recognize and urse the necessity OF change
a relaxation vacation. Rapid transit with all its
facilities and Inducements makes vacation posi-
BILE to great mass Of workers. So we shut our
houses and shops and schools and travel hither and
thither, anywhere-and stay as long as our purses
permit. The inf uenes of this ebb AMI flow may
prove question for future discussion but our
homes are the better for vacations. The popu-
lar feeling demands more. not less, relaxation.
What shall lawyer minister, teacher do Wits their
vacation? Summer schools dot the land; they give
instruction in the languages, Sciences art and lite
allure. They make study delightful, but for most
teachers something else would be be ter. yaca-
ton need OF be idly spent, because you do not reg
lister your at enc of the summer schools. If
you d. not enter enc of these YOU can enter
the same sch oil with Dick, Edwards AgassiE.
There is place barren but that it affords a
chance fer study and recreation. A vast deal can
be learned by pati'n and industry. Yet we do
not want to be always interrogating .ture, about
rocks ana frees ana noWers, and nature Will 90
much for the jaded SPIRIT if we but hold our minds
open and receptive to her kindly and healing infu-
ences.
II vacations be not too long for the teacher they
may be for the scholar So refused to sign the
petition TO the lengthening of The summer vaca-
lion in our Portland schools. The schoolroom, say
some, is better place for the children of The poor
than tue street. What shall be done with the chill
dren who cannot leave the hot city in the summer
vacation? This problem has been forced upon us.
Philadelphia originated The Sea Side Home and
Country week, but to Boston is due the credit Of
the Vacation School. The idea was first preached
by Rev. Mr.. Frank, rector of the Church of the
Good shepherd. He was prevented from putting
his plan into practice, but Miss Very, Of Boston
who was in sympathy with his idea, finally started
the first summer school in a small chapel on School
street. From this small beginning have sprung the
present number of vacation schools giving instruc
ton to between zoo 200 children. This year
there have been i've hese schools in Boston
alone. of rules there are very few. The children
not forbidden to whisper but are only asked &c
step gently. They are obliged to come clean, and
refrain from profane iaDgu and quarreling The

This work to which we address ourselves is
doubly important because women, all over the
world, so easily lend themselves to the pro-
mitigation of the views held by men, and
oftenest by those men who are least fitted to
guide and form the opinions of women. We
have here duty of redemption toward our
own sex. TO the thousands of women who
in every variety Of circumstance, are content
to exclaim "The man says SO, and he must
know" let us oppose some units who will say:
1--WE will see first whether the man is right
If he is, we will second him heartily. If he
is not, we will withstand him to his face"
AS have so far introduced our programme
l may as we'll mention that it will conclude
with study of the planet Saturn, contributed
by our scientific member par excellence. Pro-
fessor Maria Mitchell. Those who know this
dear friend are veil aware that her intimacy
with the heavenly bodies, or something else,
has given her heavenly mind. Not inappro-
pirate will it be for us to follow her to that
height of contemplation. For, when l think
how soon our parting must follow upon our
meeting, and wonder how our great common
interest can be kept everywhere and at all
times before our minds. think also how the
stars, set in Gods armament, are visible to all.
In the moral universe also there is height, and
if its stars are our beacons, we shall all be-
hold them, and thus be held together in the
unity of faith and in the steadfastness of
peace.
The first paper brought before the Congress
was by IRIS. Emma G. Bascom of Madison,
Wis, and was read by Miss Abbie w May.

well written essay:
