"What is everybody's business is

while I was In Germany a few
weeks ago." said a New Orleans bust.
ness man who has recently returned
from trip abroad, II encountered q
party OF public school boys on one of
tue walking tours that form part of
the educational system over there. The
youngsters range in age from about III
10 Il and the tour was scheduled to last
week over a carefully prearranged
route. 1t struck me as being an excel.
lent idea and I was particularly i'm.
pressed by what the teacher in charge
referred to as eye training He would
point out piece Of forest, for example,
and call the boys attention to the fact
that the foliage was not a uniform
green, but was really made up of an
lnnnite number of tints and shades,
ranging from light yellow to deep pur-
pie. That led the way to a little talk
ABOUT the law of optics and color i'm.
pressions, all very simple and informal
and evidently deeply interesting to the
scholars. They listened attentively,
asking questions and making com.
Ments to one another and it was so
much like friendly conversation |
dare say they forgot they were being
taught
LAS they drew near the woods, the
teacher Indicated different trees and
told them something about their char
acter, distinguishing marks and com.
mercial value. Chatting at little
gasthOuse that evening, he gave me
some details In regard to the system.
One of its chief objects. he said, was
to train the eye to see things. After a
boy had taken tour his powers of
observation were at least doubled and
life was prOportionately more interest
ing and attractive. AS natural result
the brain was stimulated and kept
alert. In going through towns curl
Gus game was played. The boys would
be led at rapid walk past store win
dow and then asked to describe the
objects 1t contained. The one whose
list was longest and most accurate re-
ceived prize, generally in the shape
Of chunk Of bread and piece of
sausage. The teacher said he found 1t
excellent training and mentioned Incl
dentally that the idea was borrower
from the memoirs of French con-
jurer, Robert Houdin. whose father put
him through the same course to cult
vate his memory. 1t was an odd little
circumstance and showed that the mod
ern German is not above taking sug-
