School Lectures.

Tho pieasantest and BY no means least
profitable way to get instruction is By
means Of lectures School authorities are
beginning to find that out more and
more and TO arrange in the: courses Of
public instruction for occasional talks
on various scientific. historical and 9th
sr subjects
New York city perhaps furnishes the
most shining example thus far of the
guccess Of public school lectures. The
superintendent Of the course Is DR.. Henry
NJ. Leipziger, who grows more en-
thusiastie on this subject the more he
knows about it. His report shows that
last year $50 lectures altogether were
given. They were attended by no less
than 224, 118 persons. The course began
in November and extended over 18
weeks, ending in March.
It was sight with touch Of pathos
in it to witness the audiences at the lee
tures. They were given at each hall on
two evenings Of the week. No children
under 16 years old are allowed to at
tend, the instruction being for the older
class Of school pupils. But the parents
presented themselves in greater force
than the young people did. Gray haired
men aud women, bowed with work
fastened their evening meal and hur
ried to the hall, where they hung upon
every word Of the speaker. It was a
light and joy to their toll and poverty
.blighted lives. In many instances they
were foreigners, who could scarcely
speak English, but that made no differ
3ance. They heard, understood and
learned.
The lectures are freeto all the people
The state appropriates small compen-
,sation out Of the public school fund to
pay each speaker. The talks and papers,
although intended for school children
and their parents and friends, embrace
topics in which university students
might proftably interest themselves
The field of natural science was covered
So was history, particularly American
history. The economic questions of the
day were e1pounded with cleazness. One
of the most numerously attended Of the
lectures was one on Greek architecture,
and it gave infinite delight in tho very
;slums Of the great city. Stereopticol,
views illustrated many of the talks, and
these were especially popular. Some Of
the lectures were in courses Of from two
TO four, notably those on electricity,
-lightta.n economies ~-''
