SOME Of the school board philosophers
have been very energetic in advocating
manual training for boys AS the chief
means Of preparing them for future
and useful life. II is doubtless profitable
for boy to know how to drive Jack
plane or to bestow tint OF pescock blue
on bit Of steel, but It strikes us that to
be able to read, to speak and to write the
English language would be more useful,
rarer and more admirable attainments
Some philosophers, who do not possess
an accurate acquaintance with any Of
these arts themselves, are inclined to
overlook and ignore them That is a
mistake No school curriculum is com

read and to write his own language by a
teacher who possesses those rare &C.
complishments himself It is 4 mistake

some fad who has not also, at least, 1

branches OF learning sometimes referred

NEWSPAPER OPINION.


Wilmington Local Graphic.
We agree with the EVENING JOURNAL
when il says that the Street and Sewer
Directors are spending all Of the money
at their command in the western part Of
the city. This eastern section OF the
city is being neglected and, in fact.
almost ignored, despite the fact that
almost one half Of the population aud a
proportionately large amount Of the as
sessed valuation Of property, is east OF
Market street Personally, we have al
ways defended the directors from any
insinuations thai they were not
using their funds for the general public
benefit, and we still believe that they
accomplish as much work as can be done
with the means at hand. but we main
tRin that it Is unjust and unfair to spend
the money provided by all the people, to
improve q section of the city for only a
portion Of the people. Since
its organization in 1887, the Street
and Sewer Directors have received over
a half million dollars to spend OF

and other current expenses, while

improvements made on the West

1t is no doubt the result OF smother
bargain between Blaine and Harrison

between them as to the nomination their

Harrison have agreed upon the nomlna-

Republican convention will have nothing

Exercise for Girls.

This is what Mr.. William Blaikie
saws of girls who do not take a prop
er amount of exercise: See how few
of them are at once blooming, shape
ly and strong. Instead of high
chests, plump arms, comely figures,
and a graceful and handsome mien,
you constantly see fatchests, angu-
lar shoulders, often round and warp
ed forward, with scrawny necks, pipe
stem arms, narrow backs, and a
weak walk Not one girl in dozen
is thoroughly erect, whether walking,
standing or sitting. Nearly every
head is pitched forward. The arms
are frequently held almost notion
less, and there is general lack of
spring and elasticity in their move
ments. Fresh, blooming complex
ions are so rare as to attract atten-
ton" And this is the, way he says
girls may improve the picture he
draws of them: every school girl
in America could be 5aiiy practiced
in few simple exercises, calling for
no costly intricate, or dangerous
taking little time, but
yet expanding her lungs, strengthen
ing her disgestion, invigorating her
giving every muscle and
Joint of her body vigorous play, and
so keeping her toned up, and strong
to be free from much danger
either of incurring serious disease or
any of the lighter ailments so COM
mon among them. As to her useful
ness, no matter where her lot is to be
cast, it will be increased, and, it is
not to much too add, happiness would
De greatly enhanced through all her
ife as well" I"
