It IL Said THAT Froebeps ideas Are Not
Properly Carried Out.

It IL Said That Froebers ideas Are Not
Properly Carried Out.
From the London Daily News
Whatever may have been said about Froebel
and his teaching in his lifetime there is no
doubt that the so-called kindergarten system
OF teaching is extremely popular nowadays
in many countries Nevertheless. Mr.. J. H.
Bridges, in the pages Of the Positirist Rerie,o.
ventures to sound note Of warning against
too implicit reliance upon the methods there
adopted.
The mental training Of the young child as
carried on from the beginning Of the world,
he says. has consisted till now in infinitely va
ried exercises Of hand, eve and ear. taught by
play with other children and animals and en-
llvened by the child's own fancies and dreams.
Vast stores of knowledge were accumulated in
this way Now the child spends much Of its
time IN looking at black marks on a white back
ground held eighteen inches from the eve. The
boy is taught that marble is sphere and the
girl learns that the bit of calico with which she
would like to be dressing her doll is a textile
fabric.
Protests without number have been raised, as
Mr. bridges says. against this pedantrp, and by
no one more vigorously than by Froebel him.
sell and many of his followers, but unfortu-
nately the conditions under which Froebel's
principles have been hitherto applied have gone
lar to pervert their use. The root of his
method was the conviction that every child
came into the world endowed in a greater or
less degree with a creative faculty. and that il
was the business of the teacher to let it grow
ard turn 1t to account; but teachers unforfu-
nately are often incompetent to fulfill their
task, or have so many pupils to attend to that
they cannot possibly give the requisite time to
each.

An Outrage and a sacrilece.

From the New York Trii une.
The report just made to the Secretary of War
on the work Of destruction which is going on at
Gettysburg shows the need Of immediate action
in order to preserve this famous battlefield.
Jast what can be done by the government,
seems TO be uncertain, bu: surely there must
be sufficient authority somewhere to prevent an
electric railway company from working its

We, the teachers Of Henry county,
assembled in annual institute, do
adopt the following resolutions:
lst- That We fully realize that the
future of our country depends upon
the education Of our young, and, as a
greater part of their early life Is spent
in the school room, IL is our aim to
teach wholesome knowledge that it
may be impressed upon their memory
so that in future years the youth of to-
day may stand before the world per-
feet model of all that goes TO make up
true manhood and womanhood.
"a. That the larger attendance dur
Ing the past two weeks has proven
that the institute is indispensable to
the teachers, and that by meeting and
conversing on school topics we have
gained much strength, and as we again
disperse to take up the duties of the
school room, we feel that we have
CLEANED many thoughts which will aid
US Ia our work.
Sd. That as we have access TO such
good school literature we feel it the du-
ty of every teacher who wishes to be
successful to pursue some course of
professional reading.
4th. That the executive committee
have performed their work In a very
commendable way.
5th. That we heartily indorse the ac-
tion Os our county examinersin bring
ing our schools up to their present
standing within the past year.
9Th. That we return our sincere
thanks to Supt. Beck. Supt. Richard
son and Mr.. Duffy, for their most ex-
cellent instruction; to our president
for her efficient work during the past
year; to the executive committee for
the well arranged program; to the Sec
retary for the well performance of his
irksome duties; to the board of educa-
ton of Napoleon for the use of their
fine school building; to the young Ia
dies who so kindly furnished us with
music; and to all others who aided us
in different ways.

OHIO has become the final battle
ground for protection. Governor Nc
Kinley and the Republican party have,
with the desperation born of despair,
appealed from the voters of the whole
country to the voters ofthis State up
on this issue. But their appeal will be
in vain. Mckinley and McKinIeyism
are alike doomed to irretrievable de-
feat. The people of Ohio will sustain
the judgment of the people of the
nation, and will forever establish it as a
principle of taxation, never under any
circumstances to be varied or abandon
ed, that public necessity alone must
mark and prescribe the constitutional
limit for the imposition oftaxes up
on the citizen or his property, by eth
er the State or the Federal Govern
ment. t.n-Lawrence T. Neal.
