ters on the geometrical figure, or if necessary, the figure Itself in order to make the pupil think the thoughts which the words express. He conducts the recitation in such a manner that the verbal or mechanical memory shall give way to the development of the understanding and of the memory for ideas. When a student can grasp and retain a train of ideas in the demon- stration of a theorem, in a logically prepared discourse or book he is half educated. But if his training stops at this point, he ranks as another speci men of arrested development.

 From the kindergarten to the univer- sity it is matter of prime importance for teachers to familiarize themselves with the various grades of thinking so that they may guard against cases of arrested development.

 '"The gist of Lord Rosebery's advice is not to trust too much in vague, pur- poseless reading, but, as individuals and as parts of the nation, to cultivate in- dependent thought, political training and divine discomfort. There was a proposal at the meeting that Lord Rose- bery should give his consent that his address should be printed. It would be well for any publisher who undertook to issue it to remember the lawsuit that arose short time ago regarding the is- sue of a volume of Lord Rosebery's addresses and speeches. But if this par ticular address should attain the dig nifty of appearing in book we should like to know how we are to apply the speakers test to it. Would 1t come un- der the denomination of munclng crab apples? Or must we first decide if we are going to read 1t for relaxation and amusement or for some definite object? to put in practice"

: ROSERERY ON READING.

Lord Rosebery delivered one of his delightful literary addresses at Birm- ineham last month, and in spite of some amusing variations in the reports in the dail papers, there is no doubt as to the general drift of his remarks. A part of the address was directed to a discussion of the uestion whether desutory read ing is good or bad for the individual. We take the following from the Times report:
 '" I am often inclined to ask if the praise of reading could not be more limited and discriminating. At present the mere fact of reading, the mere fact of holding an open book on which the eyes are fixed, covers a multitude of sins. Fond parents are proud and sat isfied if only they can see their children reading. A reading adult is an object of regard; a middIe-aged reader is an object of veneration; but what does it all amount to? Tn many cases very It, tie. All depends on the quality of the book and the intention of receptlvity of the reader I am not, of course, now speaking of newspapers. They are an object of reluctant homage yielded by every intelligent Briton. But the read ing of newspapers is material and com- pulsory: I am speaking of the optional reading, which receives from the hu- man race an homage to which 1t is scarcely entitled, for the mere fact of reading merely to occupy vacant mind is nothing; it may even be in- furious. There is an immense amount of bol5s in existence which the world might very we'll do without, even of books which may be called wholesale and unobjectiona ble; immense fenS of stagnant literature which can produce nothing but intellectual malaria; and as a rule, the reader has to wander in this mighty maze wholly without a plan, without discrimination and with out knowledge. He spends his years in muucling crab-apples, uNconsc'ous of the immediate neighborhood of the choicest fruits of the tree of knowledge. That is an incident which may we'll cost him his career; but at any rate every reader can exercise this amount of dis crimination for himself-ask himself occasionally. ITO what good shall I read this or am I reading this?' That is test which is not without use and which can be applied by everybody. If 1t be found that the answer is invariably re- taxation and amusement, 1t may Sug- gest to the reader that he must change his course. But for all that a great deal of literature would be justifiable if we had eternity to read it in, which is intoIerable in view of the confined lim-

Y. M. G. A. OPEN HOUSE.

Associati ton Rooms Thronged All After noon and Evening-A Splendid Pro- gramme.
 The Young Mems Christian associa- ton had "open house" in every sense of the term all day yesterday and until late last evening. In fact, the members
 of the reception committee were on duty from 10 o'clock in the morning until the same hour at night, and during all that time they were kept extremely busy welcoming the hundreds of members and other visitors who came to share in the good cheer of the day and be enter tained by the various numbers on the splendidly arranged programme. The rooms were made quite attractive py holly, potted plants and palms. It was the last general reception to be given by the association previous to the removal to the new building on
 Temple street, which it is thought Will be ready for occupancy about the hrst of March. This is indeed welcome news to the residents of New Haven in gen eral, and especially to those who are immediately interested in the growth and welfare of the association. The
 new building will have facilities for at tending to the many wants of the asso- citation in manner which could never be hoped for in their present quar- ters.
 In the morning the principal feature
 of the entertainment part of the pro-
 gramme was the basketball game be-
 tween the junior teams of the Bridge
 port and the local association. The

 teams were treated to an excellent dln- ner, while the other juniors present en-
 joyed a light lunch.
 In the afternoon the festivities began at o'clock and the first half hour was devoted to another basketball game be- tween the Eagles and Apaches. The latter won by the score of 13 to 10. This wasf ollowed by a gymnasium eXhibi- ton. Two wrestling bouts between Leek and Welsh and Huntley and liar brow were declared draws. MT Steven- son gave an exhibition of high Kicking and MT Somerset, of the University of Pennsylvania, of Indian club swinging, while the dumb bell class performed to music of college songs. There was also d relay race between the Tortoises and the flares, which was won by the for mer

Nicholls gave concert in the reading room.
 The principal feature of the even ing's programme was the singing of the colored jubilee trio, who rendered many of their plantation melodies to the de light of several hundred. Miss Edith M Norton, of New York city, also gave several humorous and dramatic recita- tions.
 Refreshments were served by the members of the Ladies auxiliary dur ing the entire afternoon and evening.
