The very word 'gymnssia" suggests
what these schools are. namely, palfestrae,
not for the body, however. but for the
mind, preparing and strengthening the
student for intellectual life, says George
Montey Wahl in the Atlantic Monthly.
Their aim, rs il stated in the educational
constitution of these schools, is not merely
To help the student in acquiring such de
gree OF classical and scholarly education "a
Il needed for n thorough understanding Of
the systematic and.learned lectures at the
universities. but TO equip him with mode
of thinking and feeling which BELTS en-
nobled humanity. In this way the gym
pasia have done their work for many de
cades; and IL we review their history, we
cannot but pay them the tribute that,
though conservative. they have been duly
progressive, too; that they have adhered
to the principle both of ''go ahead" and of
"hold fast" The materialistic tendency
of the age, to be sure, they have never
favored, and as this materialistic tendency
has gained ascendency they have severed
themselves from the newly rising schools in
which learning and intellectual pursuits
are treated rather AS the means than as the
end to be attained. Not that they have
left their programmes unchanged during
the last century, but they have always
maintained firmly that carrying utilita-
rian principals in their curriculum would
lower their standard, and would deprive
those who desire them of higher intellec
tual blessings, and thus would not satisfy
their demands on life" There is a vast diff
ference, as great writer has said between
worshipping science rs high, heavenly
goddess aud regarding it merely as a fine
cow which provides us with butter.
The name "gymnasia" as applicable to
schools dates back as far as the sixteenth
century, and the record of some of these
schools extends even 10 the fourteenth
century, although the term became gen.
orally established for all the schools Of
the highest grade only in the year 1912:
some having passed until iheu by such
names as college, lyceum, etc. This his
toric background has by no means been
unimportant and insignificant in the de
velopment of the gymnasia at large.
Whether we are conscious of il or not, the
historic spirit does hold a mighty sway
over us ala age implying experience,
and do not think aJ the present day
the firmness of the system, which does not
bear the slightest mark of experimenting,
could be maintained in these schools If il
were not for historic growth and historic
results that speak so much in their favor:
for the large majority of German scholars
who have stocked the libraries with vslu-
bic works in all branches of learning were
bred in these schools.

The Earthquake.

Dispatches of the llth, inst, state that
a shock of earthquake OF 45 seconds du-
ration was felt In The Adrondscks at 10
a. m. Saturday. Dishes ratified and
build 'Dgs shook in at least d"zan Diff
ferent places. The motion was from
east TO west. In Saratoga the shock was
felt at S:t5 and was noticed particularly
on the east side Of the town. The noise
was very distinct and sharp, especially
at Warrensburg, where it sounded like
the noise of heavy explosion. Dishes
ratified, windows shook and people ran
from the buildings in terror. Fortunate
ly no one was hurt. At this point the
county treasurer happened to be looking
at his safe, when 10 his surprise the door
swung open as il by unseen hands. The
building shook and the occupants took
refuge in flight. A building in course OF
erection there was shaken so hard that
the workmen were obliged to hang on
for dear life 10 convenient posts and
projections to keep from being thrown
off. At North Creek the telegraph oper-
ator thought car had run into the sta
ton so hard was the shock. At Lake
Placid the shock was very severe also
and the waters Of the lake were Visibly
disturbed. At Riverside, Hadley, Jes-
seps Landing, S.oney Creek and otter
points as far down as that on the Adj
rondack railroad the shock was dis
tinctly felt. At the time of the shock,
it was noticed at several of the springs
in Saratoga that the pressure of The flow
of water was somewhat greater than
usual, There was no abnormal diminu-
tion of the flow, but rather an increase.

City Boys on Farms.

Some visitors to the Eastern farming
regions. looking with chagrin at the
many blackened ruins Of farm houses
and barns, say Why do not the Door in
the city return to the country Why are
not more vagrant boys of the cities sent
to Eastern instead of Western farms, so
that they may grow up to be farming
population and continue the farms other
wise falling into neglect The last ques-
tion may find explanation in some re-
marks made by Mr.. George j. Manson,
who discusses the farm as means of re-
form in the Christian Union. He saws
that the reason that boys are sent to
Western Instead of Eastern farm homes
is that they are more desired in the West.
The cost OF maintaining a boy in this
section is quite a consideration, since
food, rent and clothing are more expen-
sIve in the Eastern States tn n they are
in the West. Here boy has to be bet
ter dressed, and the very nearness of
Eastern farms to great cities is a disad-
vantage, The knowledge that large
city, with its excitements and amuse.
ments, Is convenient is apt TO make boy
restless, uneasy and discontinued. The
writer gives to Western people the credit
of better way of managing unruly and
vicious boys than the farmers of the
Eastern States. He says:
Most of them in their earlier journey
ing through life have received hard
knocks themselves, have known what 1t
Is to rough it, and can sympathize with
boy who has been made the foot ball
of fortune, and is lacking in the firmer
elements of character. The equality of
all classes Is marked, as well as the pc
culiar warm heartedness Of the people,.
The most successful contingent which
the Eastern farms receive from the city
Is not that of poor boys such as the West
welcomes readily, but of retired mer-
chants who seek on Clancy farms" the
pleasure of rural life. Perhaps our
Eastern farmers possess themselves an
element Of restlessness which increases
their difficulty in bringing up boys to
enjoy farming life.-Boston Journal,
