The odor of the flower is said to be

The Factory Versus the School.

Compulsory education must go hand
in hand with child labor laws. The
continuity and the endless repetition
of the factory life stunt both body
and mind. The labor may not be
hard, the air may be as pure as that
of the schoolroom, but the WEAKNESS
of the endless repetition Of the me
chanical action, the continual over
and over Of certain physical motions
giving no opportunity for change ano
variety, is very depressing and tends
to dull and stupefy the mind of o
growing child.
The tendency of the school is TO
awaken the dormant faculties of the
mind and stimulate the sluggish pow
ers of the soul. The tendency of the
factory is to dwarf the soul and re-
duce the human being to the level of
the machine and a dangerous ma
chine, because brutalized and de-
graded.-Donahoe's Magazine.
