their meaning are those simple plays Of
the mother with her baby. The educa-
ton Of the child begins at birth.
In Infancy the physical must of neces-
sity predominate, for then indeed the
only keys We have to child mind are
the reverse. When the awakening takes
place then the mental and spiritual
teaching should be hand in hand with
the physical. The spiritual education of
the child is the arousing of the moral
sense. 1t Is through the emotional ma
ture that the child instinctively recog-
nizes higher existence. The child
truly learns only what interests him. The
child is considerable, indefatigable
philosopher at the same time that he is
losician and not less than these an
unscrupulous destructor This latter
characteristic should be forgiven in
view of the former. We should remem-
Der this when the philosophic infant
breaks his toys. smashes clocks, turns on
faucets with calm disregard of conse-
quences. We should see to it that these
consequences as far as punishment Is
concerned, should be tempered by the
knowledge that it is law of his nature.
If we discourage his investigations his
development is retarded. At each new
step we must revert to the starting
point. The infant is subject only to
sense impressions. The infants nerves
are impressed agreeably by rhymthic
motions and sounds. Rhythm is factor
In infant education. A conception OF
rhythm will grow into an appreciation Of
order and harmony. The sense of taste
is even at birth able to distinguish be-
tween sweet and sour. The tongue and
lips are then sensitive to contact. The
eye is sensitive to light before the sec
ond day. 1t Is not until the twenty
fourth day that sound is perceptible to
the child, and in the sixth week he mani
tests for the first time an appreciation
of musical sounds. Froebel tells us re-
garding this period of infancy that as
the infant delights unconsciously to play
with his limbs II 1t is left too long with
out some external object with which to
play, harm will result. Too great a
quantity of food placed before the child
develops greediness. The eye gains the
mastery over the appetite and what is
more deplorable that the unpleasantness
occasioned at meal by spoiled child,
who wants this and doesn't want that.
Children out late at night are abnor-
mally excited. The clothing of children
improperly will result in harm. Clay
modelling is delightful employment
for children. They can be taught to be
neat and they get ideas of form and
proportion impossible to gain in any
other way. Imitation is a natural fac

reading In its highest sense Is interpre-
tation, Special instruction is given In
breathing, with exercises; also the fun
damental principles of gesture.
The aim of the course'i in physical cul-
ture Is the symmetrical development Of
the body as basis for healthand grace.
Physical examinations are made of all
the students who require personal at
tention, and special work Is assigned to
remove all disabilities. The general
training includes exercise for poise, con-
troll of the muscles, and the conservation
of nerve power. Miss Murphy has large

KINDERGARTEN PRINCIPLES.
1t Is many years ago that Froebel
fought for his kindergarten principles,
and his dearest hope was that the reali-
zation of these principles, systematized,
might be made thing of the home. AL
though his theories concerning educa-
tion in general were radical, he concen-
trated his efforts on the revolution Of
the then existing methods of child
training. Froebel, remembering his own
neglected childhood, was in perfect SYM
pathy with children. People who saw
the tall, earnest man joining in the chill
dren's simple plays would look at each
other askance and shake their heads.

child nature. He was studying the needs
of childhood. In the mother plays he
would show mother how profound in

to increase the membership. He sug-
gested that the members be appointed
from the wards that were not numer-
ously represented.
This motion caused some debate, and
Messrs Louis Thorne Wells, o. O'Melvenv,
Garland, Shirley c. ward, VIII ID. Gould,
Dr. Lemoyne Wills and others spoke.
The gentlemen did not seem to fully
understand the motion, and when eX-
plantations were made objections were
withdrawn, and Mr.. Koepli's motion
was finally adopted.
Calls were made for speech from
Judge Sherman Page of East Los Ange-
les, and that gentleman took the floor.
He stated that he would like to see or
der brought out of the chaos into which
the meeting had fallen, and was proceed
ing to state his points when he was
called down." and found that the points
to which he was Objecting had all been
smoothed out. On being put on the right
track he gracefully subsided, saying
that he had nothing to say.
Major e. w. Jones called attention to
the fact that "the enemy" were already
at work trying to circumvent the move
ment, and said that they had already
succeeded in getting one prominent
prospective candidate of the movement
to withdraw, and refuse the use of his
name. He hoped that there would be
no further defections.
The meeting was getting reStiVe, as
the hour was getting late, and Judge
Croft moved that they adjourn subject
to the call of the chair, the members TO
be notified through the mails, as had
been done in the first instance.
The chair asked that the motion be
withdrawn until he could announce the
committee on credentials. He then an
nounced the following committee under
Mr.. Koepfli's motion, saying that the
members had been annOintp6 with ref
erence to the representation of the
wards: George II. Stewart, Third ward;
William II. Workman, Ninth ward d.
NJ McGarry, Sixth ward; Robert Nc
Garvin, First ward; Walter Rose,
Eighth ward.
The meeting then adjourned subject to
the call of the chair, it being understood
that the committee on permanent organ
ization would have it's report ready at
the next meeting. Those present were
asked to enlist the support of all citizens
in the movement.

many visitors are inspecting the classes
at work. The class in
MANUAL TRAINING
Taught by Prof. Lunt, recently elected
principal of the city schools at Long
Beach, has frequent visitors.
Two classes have been formed in this
department; one is the children's class,
working from to II o'clock a. M, and the
other a teachers class, working from
to 6 o'clock p. m.
'3 The work consists of the Leipsic series
of models constructed of cardboard, vari-
colored papers and, book binders cloth.
Various kinds of boxes, geometrical SOL
ids, carditrays and portfolios are made.
This work has an educational value, in
that the students sense of form and
color is developed, and habits of obser-
walton, neatness and accuracy are cul-
tivated.
In connection with the work in card
board Is an exhibit of wood Sloyd, con-
sfsting of models made by Prof. Lunt
in the famous Sloyd school at Mas,
sweden, and complete series of models
made by him In the Boston Sloyd train
ing school. These two series of mod
els are arranged in parallel lines on the
walls of the room SO that the chief points
Of difference between the American and
Swedish series may be easily seen. Much
interest is manifested in Prof. Lunt's
work. His classes are large and consist
mainly Of teachers and professional peo-
pie.
