The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1896-05-01

A writer in the Atlantic Monthly for
April devotes a good portion of his dis
course on the American public schools
to the necessity of good manners in the
school room. While teachers need not
be possessed of the fine graces of a Lord
Chesterfield, the writer maintains that
as an instructor of boys and girls they
should add dignity to their position by
most careful attention to their own per-
sonal conduct. Perfect self-poSsession,
freedom from affectation, proper care
for dress and the person, produce a sub
tie and insensible training in the school
room that is hardly less valuable than
that which is given by direct instruc-
ton. Good manners are sadly want
ing in children of all grades above the
kindergarten" This last statement is a
nice little compliment for the kinder
garten, and somewhat of a reflection
upon the teachers of higher grades. 1t
ought to set the latter to thinking. I'm
fortunately, when children get beyond
the interesting kindergarten age, many
teachers seem to think their duty is full
filled if they succeed in drumming a
fair amount of the three RS into the
obstreperous young brains Yet the So
cial side of school room instruction is
Of no less Importance to the child.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1896-05-01

The remarks of DR.. Rodgers upon the
census of 1896 will attract more than
ordinary interest, coming as they do
from one who is thoroughly acquainted
with the practical difficulties which
have to be overcome in obtaining a
census of Hawaii that will give
something more than the total num-
Der of people in the country and
their nationality. AS a purely business
proposition, the census soon 10 be taken
should go beyond the narrow routine
limits that have characterized the sta
tistical records of former years. The
man selected as the superintendent of
the census should be one capable of
mapping out broad policy, and one
thoroughly acquainted with the con-
ditions and necessities of the country.
Finally, the Government should not be
parsimonious in dealing out funds in
order that the work may be complete
in every detail.

big eight" started to shelye IT, and had
almost succeeded, but after a night de-
liberation they thought better OF their
action. Far from the integrity OF the
Minister of Finance being questioned,
we happen to know that this string was
PLAYED upon very freely. A number Of
people could not see, and there were
those who did not want them to see,
that Mr.. Damon, as Minister of Finance,
could propose a measure and not look
to assisting his own bank in the mat
ter. Very few people can understand
disinterested public action. Evidently
some of the big eight could not.

recent number of the New York
Herald has a letter from Mr.. John ..
Brooks. advocating that on January l.
1000 a new division of time should be
made and that the year be divided into
thirteen months Mr.. Brooks plan has
rnucb to commend it, but the world is
90 conservative in matters of this KIND
that il is very unlikely that any serious
attention will be given to the scheme
Nv the proposed change the first twelve
months would have four weeks or eX-
act1v % DAYS each, and the thirteenth
month would have 20 days and 30 days
in each leap year. This would make the
DAYS of the week throughout year fall
on the same day. Supposing January L
was a Monday, every Monday would be
the list, Sth, 18th and 22d; every Tues
day the I'd, 9Th, 10th and 23d through
out the year. BY this means many cal
culations, like interest, dates of matur-
ing notes, and so forth, would be much
simplified. Of course it would interfere
with the birthdays and dates of the
present generation, but there can be no
doubt of the simplicity of the scheme.
Mr.. Brooks says: Would not the gain
the bother to the pres
ent generation, for the gain would be
permanent and the objections trifing |
Or imaginary?'' The idea is recommend |
ed TO our scientific friends.
