History Is taught 10 = novel way IN
Washington. and the pupils are taught
in n practical way tina: seems worthy
Of emulation. According 10 a gentle
MAJ who recently went through q
.choolin that city. the following plan Is
pursued:
The other day he visited the room o!
DR.. Roush. the principal o! the schoo!
in the Henry building. He was
moiioned to "A seat and the work OF the
school proceeded wi;hou, interruption.
II oon became apparent tina, some
thing of unusual inieres, was taking
place. The face OF every member o.
the school was ablaze with Interest
and enthusiasm. and frequent points
| OF order and constitutional refer
enccs' were suggested. The visitor
saw that m election VI some sort Was
taking place. and in due time the bal
lots were cast. ~,cllers appointed and
the vote. counted. The result Was the.
nomination Of va presidential tickets.
at which point the hour for closing had
arrived and the school dismissed.
That" said Doctor Roush. answer
ing tho visitors inquiry. lis n prac-
teal way We have OF teaching history.
We have just finished the study OF that
part Of the Constitution pertaining 10
the election Of the President and Vice
President. and now We are doing tho
practical work. The ballOting you
have just witnessed was In the conven-
ton. and We have now nominated ouP
tickets. l divide the school into two
factions or parties. and each party IL
allowed to nominate n ticket. The can
didates are members Of the school, and
no little interest is taken in them. The
pupils do the practical work. and
when they are at loss TO know how 10
proceed. the constitution is consulted.
After the electors are chosen they vote
and send the result to the proper body.
In case Of a tic on either President or
Vice President We resolve ourselves
into the House or Senate. a. the case
maybe. and decide the contest. We do
the work rs nearly As possible that IL
actually done in Our National elections.
and instead OF merely reading what IL
usually dull constitutional matter. We
take up the real work and study be-
comes one OF intense interest ~ the
scholars"
do you find that the scholars have
much Of an idea OF an election here in
the District OF Columbia"
NO; not as much rs those who live
where they may witness several cleo
tons n year. and this fact alone makes
it doubly interesting To them. To-
morrow. Mt the history hour. the cleo
tors will! ne chosen. and the manner Of
choosing them is the subject for study"
81 cmpha,ically believe in teaching
those under my care the practical APP
plication OF knowledge. knowledge
that can't be applied is useless in tho
majority Ofcases. There is toe much
useless book lore taught everywhere.
Girls and boys too frequently leave
our public schools with their brain
crammed with impracticable rubbish
and data. They should be- taught 70
think and reason. To develop and APP
ply. to analyze and construct. Such
minds are in demand in practical life.
Such men and women become the grea.
and stanch motor powers o! our land
