propositions for combating these evils
have been under consideration. The
proposed changes were submitted un-
der the authority OF an eminent physi-

hygiene. One Of the recommendations
is that children be not sent to school
until they have passed the age Of z.
Other propositions are to limit the
studies in the primary schools to read
ing, writing, arithmetic. drawing.
singing and gymnastics; to do away
with home study; to give the pupils
frequent intermissions and vacations,
and to mitigate greatly the rigor OF
examinations. The tendency in every
