of our pubic schools Some have thought
It was a picked exhibit; others that mature
heads and hands aided in the work. Not
SO! A visit to the schools and the evidence
OF the children at work show that that
which they have done is but earnest of
what they shall do"
Character building, not simply Informal
ton getting. is the object of public school
teaching-to so train and discipline the
mind that when the scholar leaves the
school he is ready to start on any of the
avenues Of life. The old method was to
try and teach the child by the experience
of others as evinced by symbols Cbooks).
The present method is to teach the child
by his own exDeriences-to teach him how
to express these by his own symbols
(words), and then to teach him the larger
experif ces of others He first learns the
correlation of his experiences and his SYM
bols, then lie the better learns the correIa-
tion of the symbols and experiences of
others.
The public school system seeks to place
the child in an environment distinct and
different from that in which it has already
been inclosed- This is SO that the soul may
be awakened and sensations of delight at
the novelty be aroused in the childish
mind.
The First Grade.
Manual training in reality begins in the
first grade. The little tot who with ex-
quisite delight molds tiny jug from
clay or models piece of fruit is insensi-
bly, educating his sense of touch in the
lips of the fingers his sense of form in the
eye, his sense of proportion, &c. He is
just as truly using Skill however feeble
as does the mature artisan. 1t is only a
difference of degree.
In the first six grades the children are
prepared by work done in the school room
for the technical manual training, which
begins in the seventh year. In the lower
grades the mind is disciplined, it's powers
built up, its forces energized so that the
child approaches the seventh grade work
with mind fully prepared.
Training In the Grammar Schools
few days since made the round of the
manual training schools to see what the
children were doing At the Thompson
building, or 18th near X, the initiative was
taken Here is a permanent exhibit of the
results of manual training in the grammar
schools and well worth a visit from par
ents Also there are exhibits showing work
In the lower grades, the sequence running
from the uncertain effort of the mind first
awakening to the precision of the mind
which has grappled with the problem and
mastered ii. In the higher grades the hand
work is made from drawings executed by
