TEACH A CHILD TO THINK.

From Infancy the Mother Should study
to Promote Its Mental Growth.
Froebel's Mother Play" book is full
Of the richest suggestions as to how
she everyday life OF the nursery can
be made to yield up its treasures Of oil
and wine, goodness and truth, for both
baby and mother. He shows very
clearly there hat while It is easy to
keep in sympathy with child-nature,
and for many mothers to provide for
the varying ceaseless activities. yet
that to really understand the origin
and end Of this activity an earnest
study Of the human mind in its indi.
vidual and social relations is also need
ed. The mother must learn that
thought and feeling, as well as nerve
and muscle, have their pulsations,
their rhythms, their periods Of greater
or less activity. She must learn that
to try to work against these laws writ
ten in the whole being Of the child is
but kicking against the pricks." She
will learn that just as there is seed
time and harvest, and the work OF the
one period cannot be done except In
that period, so the child cannot be
made to take on certain states Of mind
and heart. To take up certain studies
when he has not yet reached the time
in which such mental or heart nourish-
ment is demanded is but to block the
wheels to q true. logical, orderly de-
velopment of all the faculties. She
will learn that a child's interests can
not be ignored and other interests for
eign to his present stage of growth SUB
stituted for his own She will study
books like Donelson's Growth Of the
Brain" or Warmers The Study Of the
Child" to find a true physical basis for
education, and then strive to gain a
clearer, larger view of all those psyche
logical questions which bear on mental
development. To this will be added a
true knowledge Of those principles
which make for a better understanding
Of the child as a spiritual being. It II
not hard to do all this II you will look
at life from the child's standpoint, Civ
ing him your own loving instructive
