OvERsTUDY IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

| OVERSTUDY IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS. 1 overstudy as prevalent defect of our 1 public school system Is the startling ac- cusation made in the report of the com- mittee on education before the North side board of trade, at One Hundred and Thirty-ninth street and Alexander ave- nue, on Tuesday night. The unanimous adoption of this report and the discussion which brought it | about comprehend the most radical op- position offered to the accepted currcu- lum.
 Our attention has been called said W. Stebbins Smith, the chairman, ito what would appear to be almost a phys lcal wreck of some of our brightest and best scholars in the public schools caused, as we believe, by the great amount of study forced upon them and we deem it our duty to suggest that the children in our schools should have few CT studies
 we believe in making haste slowly, especially when it comes to educating little children, particularly girls. We believe that more thorough and ex- haustive system of gymnastic exercises should be attached to our schools and made more prominent feature"
 pr. Emil Heuel introduced his little nine-year-old daughter as a sample of the result of overstudy.
 She comes from school complaining of nervous headache. It is ridiculous Tor a child at her age to know anything Of such an ailment. The fact is that children are being pushed too far men tally for their physical development. believe in more primitive methods Ma ture study, music, manual training all added to the regular studies make so much work that children are obliged to prepare tasks at home. This is contra ry to the regulations and inmical to the childs health. More physical exercise and less mental would be my prescrip- tion" The doctor deprecated the in- troduction of foreign languages into the ordinary school course
 ''If the rudiments of education are thoroughly taught accomplishments may be added later The children want first thorough knowledge of their own language"
 His contention that college women are not the best wives and mothers because they have usually lived at top high a pressure and are suffering from ex- hausted nerves carried its weight.
 Others urged that teachers, as well as children, are overtasked.
 ''It Is preposterous,' urged one speak CT, that any one man or woman in the short space of life can assimilate all that is expected of our public school teachers to-day. New York World.
