Separating the Sexes In
School.

On this point Mr.. Stowe, celc-
bratcd GLASGOW teacher, said many
years ago:
The youth of both sexes of our Scot
fish pcasantry have been educated to-
gether, and, as a whole, the Scotch are
the most moral people on earth. Edu-
cation in England is given separately,
and we never have heard from practical
men that any benefit has arisen from
this arrangement. Some influential IN
dividuals there mourn over the prcju-
dice on this point. In Dublin larger
number of girls turned out badly who
had been educated alone until they had
attained the age of maturity than OF
those who were otherwise brought up
The separation of the sexes has been
found to be injurious. 1t is impossible
to raise the girls as high, intellectually,
without boys rs with them; and it is
impossible to raise boys, morally, as
high without girls. The girls morally
elevate the boys. and the boys intel.
lectually elevate the girls. But more
than this-grls themselves are morally
elevated by the presence Of boys, and
boys are intellectually elevated by the
presence of girls. Girls brought up
with boys are more positively moral,
and boys brought up in schools with the
girls are more positively intellectual, by
the softening influence of the female
character. In the Normal Seminary at
GLASGOW the most beneficial effects have
resulted from the more natural course.
Boys and girls from the age Of 4 or 5
years to that Of II or 10 have been
trained in the same classroom, galleries
and Fairgrounds without improperly.
