THE RIGHTS OF CHILDREN.
AN INTERESTING LECTURE BY DIR. LEWIS
G. JAMES.

Dr. Lewis G. James delivered the eighth OF
series OF lectures on Evolutionary Principles APP
piled to Education at the Pouch Mansion. III CH"-
ton-ave., last night The doctors SUBJECT WAS
"Ch!ldrens Rights In Education" HIS DISCOURSE
which was under the auspices OF the broohiyh
Ethical Association, might be classified as pea ioi
the education of children under system that Shall
recognize the individuality of the child ana not I'M
pose upon Its mind any system Of thought orlgi-
mating in the mind OF teachers or parents. Inc
speaker emphasized strongly the right OF the cniu
to be protected from what he termed the pias Oh
dogmatlc teaching until its mind was suHlciehty
mature to form an Independent judgment FOR itself.
DR.. James further deprecated the anti-theo'osica'
bias Of certain so-called school of liberal thinkers
as equally Objectionable with the bias OF dogmatic
Theology. He summed UP the qualifications py say
ing that the first. second. third and all other essen
tails comprised character. Given this. he sad ana
the person becomes teacher He also recon-
nended reform in schools and school boards so that
all politics might be eliminated and members anu
teachers chosen solely for their competence
What then. the rights one claims that chill
dren have the parent the teacher ana the state!
asked DR.. James. Herbert Spencer very properly
distinguishes between the ethics of the family ana
the ethics Of the State; between the rights OF adults
which are proporonate to the free exercise of their
activities and those OF children, which are inversey
unproportonate to such activities. The necessities
OF child he holds. the measure OF Its right
full demands upon the parent during infancy. 1t Is
the right OF the child therefore not only to be sup
piled with such food clothing and shelter as are req

tunities by enabling II to exercise al It's faculties
