%ChllDREN'S BRAINS.

b Half and Half Training Recently In
troduced Into English Schools.
The Wiseacres OF society were a long
timo in discovering that a child's brain
is capable of only a limited and mod
crate amount of fixed attention daily.
They have, however. arrived at that
conclusion at last. Brain slavery has
been nearly abolished in schools
especially in public schools. To whom
principally, belongs the credit OF first
establishing the fact that children may
be Overtaught, We do not know; but he
deserves that a vOtive statue, sculp-
tured by childish hands. should be
erected in his honor in every great
city in Christendom.
1t is amazing that u g~reat-grand-
fathers should not have reflected that
little heads had something else to do
than pore over books, viz: to grow.
Psychologists must have known. cen
turtles ago. that a young brain. like a
young back, might be crippled, de-
formed. crushed. by the imposition of
burdens unsuited to its comparatively
feeble power of endurance. But the
doctors did not interfere with the
schoOlmasters. 1t was not in their
way" and so the examining system
fOurished unchecked until within the
last half century.
What is called half and half training
has recently been introduced into the
industrial schools of England with
great success. The fOrenoOns are de-
voted to boOk-learning. the afternoons
to active employments; andit is found
that pupils acquire twice as much
know ledge within a given number OF
days under this system a they
acquired in the same time when they
studied all day lOng.-N. \. Ledger
