Common Sense Education.

When Stephen Girard was pre-
pairing his plans for the organiza-
ton Of Girard College he set down
as one Of his wishes that the
orphans who were to be the bene-
fciaries Of his bounty should be
taught "things rather than words"
He was not an educator, but he
had had large experience as a mer-
chant and shipper and had the &C.
casion to employ a great number
of young men, some illiterate,
others highly educated, and he.
had come to the conclusion that
much of the education of the day
was misdirected. 1t was for that
reason that he desired the pupils
of his school to be taught "things
rather than words" The idea was
crudely expressed, as might have
been expected from aman ofaffairs
who during all his life had paid
less attention to language than the
ideas it is intended to convey, but
a half a century or more after his
time educators began to take up
his idea. The systems and
methods Of instruction now most
in vogue in the public schools OF
the United States are based upon
Girard's prescription. They are
not applied,Eperhaps, as he would
have applied them, but the schools
of today give more attention than
formerly to things and less atten-
ton to mere words. That they do
not altogether succeed in realizing
Girard's aspiration is due to the
factthat many Of the teachers
have been brought up on words
and do not know much about
things. Another generation will
no doubt show some improvement.
In science teaching, which is rel
atively a new study for thepupils
of the public schools, the differ
ence between the old and the new
systems is most clearly shown. In
Girard's time snch science as was
taught was memorized from books;
in the present day the aim, at
least. though it is seldom realized,
is to make the pupil observe and
think for himself. In the one case
he is taught words; in the other,
things. 1t is a comparatively easy
matter to teach words from a text
book. The pupil is required to
memorize and the only duty Of the
teacher is to ''hear the lesson
and see that the pupil ~recites &C
cording to the. book. But if the
pupil is to be taught things rather
than words the teacher must know
enough to guide and direct the OBJ
servation Of the pupil; he must be
capable Of directing the latter tc
right conclusions respecting the
observations made; in other words
he must be a master of his subject
and himself have a knowledge o.
things rather than words. Sucl
teachers are not easily found ane
will not be until the system hal
been used for many years. Tha
it is the true system Of education
every successful business mai
knows, not only from his persona
experience, but from his dealing,
with book-educated men. Tn
man who, in or out Of school, ha
acquired a knowledge Of things i
useful as an employee; the man VIII
knows nothing except what i
taught in books and that only b
rote, is impracticable.

KRoNsTADT. o. F. S. March 2l.-
(DeIayed)-Kruger and Steyn address
sed a vast camp meeting here today,
their words being received with i'm
mense enthusiasm. Kruger called on
the Beers to maintain their gallant
Fl ght for freedom and stated that the
ultimate issue would result in the main
finance of the independence OF the re-
publics.
Steyn said that in the six months
the war had been going on
the Beers had lost less
than one thousand men . killed
and that fighting was really only
commencing. He sai3 it did not follow
that the Orange Free State was con-
uuered because Bloemfontsin was oc
cupied by the British. steyn warned
the Free State not to believe Lord
Roberts's proclamations. because the
B .itish had failed on every occasion to
keep their treaties and promises.
After three cheers the national cong
was sung with fervor and the pres
idents were cheerei to the echo. All
the troops are in excellent spirits and
eager to meet the British.
The railway from Pretoria is taxed
with heavy shipments of supplies and
