Public school officials of Washington
have adopted unique plan of teaching
their scholars history and familiarizing
them with the workings of the govern
ment as we'll as other branches OF
study. The scheme is for the teacher OF
each school to take her scholars on a
haunt to the capitol or to the suburbs
to study geology, history and any 9TH
or branch of study which may be cho-
sen. Since the opening OF the spring
weather hundreds of children, accom-
panied by their teachers, flock to the
capitol to listen to the statesmen debate
important questions. Hardlya day pass
es but 500 or 600 children crowd the
galleries to listen to the debates and
roam around statuary hall and study
the marble figures Of Clay, Lincoln
Calhoun, Webster and Grant and learn
something Of the characteristics OF each
man. Then they ovcrrun the rotunda
and feast thoir eyes upon tho huge
paintings which depict the historical
enochs of this country. From here a
visit is made to the historic senate
chamber to watch and listen to the
grave, deliberate senate. Before leaving
the building they never fail to spend
considerable time before the picture OF
Perry's battle on Lake Erie and gather
inspiration from the magnificent cour-
age displayed by that gallant sailor.
One day last week 200 girls, clad III
white dresses, invaded the capitol, and
as the house was not in session took
possession of the hall, occupied the
sneakers chair and did about as they
pleased. They presented a pretty sight
