True Generosity.

A charming story of the late queen of England. yOuchcd for by Mir. A. r.. Story, Is told in the childhood of Queen Victoria" It is SO consistent with the queens known kindness of heart that lt speaks for lts own truth.
 The Princess Victoria had set her heart on buying a doll she had seen in a shop window. but her mother the Duchess of Kent would not let Der buy lt until her next allowance or pocket money was due.
 At last the day came. and the prin- cess hurried to the shop, paid over the six bright shinings and got the long coveted doll
 On coming out of the shop with her treasure In her arms the princess en- countered a wretchedly miserable tramp. who plueked up courage enough to ask for help. The princess hesitated a moment: then. realizing that she no longer had any money left for the man. she returned to the shOpkeeper and gave him back the doll He gave her the c shlllings. promising also to keep the doll for her for a few days
 Then the little lady hurried out of the shop and thrust the whole of the money into the hands of the beggar.

mated, excited little faces. They had paid a visit to a carpenters shop near by, had seen him work and were eager to try their own little hands with the tools.
 In a few minutes they presented very busy scene. All the little boys and girls were assembled on the circle. and the teacher by well directed questions made them tell what they had seen. Then under her guidance and direction they measured the wood. they sawed and ham, mered with great glee.
 Although the picture shows the little boy with hammer In hand, the little girls handle them equally as well. On the oth- CT hand the little boys were just as active in sweeping and brushing up the saw dust and restoring order to the room, when the work was finished.
 This is not the place to enter into detailed description of the work, but let every one interested go and visit the Kindergarten and see for himself.
 Domestic science and helpfulness in the home are also taught. The children set their table for lunch, and there Is great rivalry among the little ones to perform the helpful little offices connect ed with this important function.

M Iss BERTHA H. GELDERS. a M member of the board of directors of the Birmingham Free Kindergarten association, has contributed a compre- hensive article on the educative value of the kindergarten.
 Artist Blackman of the Age-Herald staff, accompanied Miss Gelders on a TO- cent visit to the free kindergartens and the clever sketches drawn from life re- veal types and scenes that may be found every day at the free kindergartens.
 Mss Gelders writes as follows
 The object and educative value of the kindergarten has been so we'll and so ably presented to the people of Birmingham, that any attempt on my part would seem super1uous.
 While the general good of kindergarten work Is understood and appreciated, there are many people who have never had occasion to visit a kindergarten and see the practical work done.
 The impression among the general pub lie is that kindergartens are good things; that they relieve poor women of the re- sponsibility of taking care of their little ones, amuse these and incidentally teach them few little songs, speeches, etc.
 While kindergarten work is missionary work in one sense. it Is this only as long
The Birmingham age-herald., 1903-02-15

as we consider the terms missionary" and "educational" as interchangeable. No work is educational, which is not missionary, and vice versa.
 The kindergarten aims at the har- monious development of the child-nature, the training of the physical, mental and moral faculties by well directed thought activity and play.
 This training Is as essential to the child of the rich as 1t is for the child of the poor.
 Kindergarten work should not be look ed upon as the work of a few women with missionary tendencies. Its educative influence should be carefully weighed and balanced. If it is good and stands the test of utility, then it should be recog- nized and be made part of our public school work. If 1t does not stand the test of utility, then let it fall.
 We have now in this city three free kindergartens, operated and supervised
The Birmingham age-herald., 1903-02-15

hv the association. A visit to either or these will convince even the casual op- server of the good influence Of this work unon the child's mind. heart and body.
 The morning exercises at the kinder- earten find the children grouped around their teacher and singing the foiioWing: Father thou who carest
 For tiny little flowers,
 Who teacheth bees and squirrels To save for winter hours
 To Thee we little children
 Our loving thanks would bring For all Thy loving kindness
 Of all Thy goodness sing
 After this little devotional exercise the children have their songs and games, mostly bearing on lessons to be especial ly impressed in the work of the day.
 Properly directed play accomplishes Tor the child what work does for the adult. The kindergarten recognizes this great factor in ehild-development, and there fore we find there the happiest, busiest, most helpful children.
 The educational value of play cannot be overestimated. It awakens the intel lect, quickens all the faculties, gives needed exercise to the muscles and in- creased circulation to the blood culti- yates and tgains the emotions and calls forth the sympathies.
 The great need of our time is skilled labor. The great cry Is manual training" in the schools. The seed Is laid in the kindergarten.
 The constructive work carries out the thought developed by the games; the little eyes are trained for accuracy, the little hands for deftness. Color, form and
