have no homework to do or if they
nave any let it be such that ii is mere
routine. In the last two years of the
High School course, especially if the
pupil wish to graduate and get a diplo-
ma or If he be preparing for college, a
very considerable amount of home
work, say two or three hours a day, is
absolutely essential.
To learn classic or a modern Ian
guage takes time. Unless the great
miracle of the gift of tongues again APP
pear, there is no short method, that
am aware of to learn an alien LAM
guage. This is true in many Of the
other branches necessary to round/out
the course of secondary education.

NJ. NJ. SCOTT.
lProf. Scott writes with some heat
about gross Misrepresentation.
There may be and is room for a differ
ence of opinion about the work done
by teachers. However if Professor
Scott is right in saying that teachers
now teach too much" and it is also
true that children are obliged 10 get
help in their studies at home for hours
at a time, then it follows that chill
dren are being overworhed, precisely
as this journal contends.-Ed. Adyl q

and the literature of those languages
at the present time than the youth had
when he entered Harvard. Now, Mr..
Editor, it is not to be denied that COM
bined with much merit, there is left
some fungus of the old system and
some of new growth. 1 should say .llat
a just criticism would be that unquali-
fed teachers endeavor to correIate
things that have no connection. To
tell a sixth grade pupil to go home after
school and find out about Milton and
his life and writings is of such a ma
ture. The child of that age or even of a
much greater age should let Milton
severely alone. When the time may ar
rive that the subject of English History
is taken up in the last year of the
High School then Milton may be and
must be brought in. English History,
especially under the Stuarts and after
cannot be well understood without Mil
toms relation to it. His views on gov
eminent, burning question at that
time, on the religion of the time, and
the literature of the time will explain
much and throw much light on form
alive period of the great English M
ton. Are his views on government and
on religion to be found in his prose
and poetical works, did the theology
of the Puritans color in any way mis-
great epic. thus you see, Mr.. Editor,
that all these subjects come in the life
of the young if brought in at the proper
time.
Now as to the time occupied during
the twenty-four hours in these various
branches. After making allowance for.
perhaps. some excess, / am inclined to
the belief that all pupils can with 4
reasonable amount of study after
school do all work assigned them by
the best teachers.

girls under eleven and twelve should

PROF. SCOTT'S VIEWS.

Editor Advertiser: 1t is gratifying 20
teachers as we'll as to parents and to
school officials that you have raised the
question in regard to the course OF
study in our schools. Any honest effort,
cool, clear and fair-minded to get at
the facts in regard to the education of
the young is important to all concerned
the state as well as to the people in
general. This effort, however, must be
an endeavor to treat the whole affair
from a rational and Scientific stand
point.
In your leader in the Advertiser of
the 5th inst. you write no doubt, with
an uprightness of purpose, but the
writing shows a want of the knowledge
of the facts: and your statement that
teachers do not teach now as formerly
is d gross misrepresentation, and an
injury to them. 1t is my candid opin-
5on that teachers now teach too much.
That they endeavor, metaphorically, to
pull or pack along on their shoulders
the lazy and incompetent to make them
equal to the competent and industrious.
In an article in Saturdays issue
signed Parent" there is evidently an
earnestness of purpose and an effort TO
get at the truth. This parent COM
plains of "a crush of subjects thrust
upon the defenseless child and to con-
found the important with the unimpor-
tant.'' There is truth in this statement.
Eight years are given to the primary
and grammar grades, and these years
are filed to the brim with green frogs,
blue and white sky, the worm that
creeps. the butterfly, etc
Now. Mr.. Editor, this parent should
know that there is nothing more inter
esting to the child than the frog, if the
birth and life history of the frog be
presented as it should be. The frog is
Matched in the water from an egg. 1t
is for a certain period practically fish.

Editor Advertiser: The question
agitating parental minds is the all-ab-
sorhing one of the education OF chill
dren. To these puzzled inquirers l
wish to offer DR.. Henderson's "Educa-
ton and the Larger Life as a solace
as well as stimulator. The thoughtful
reader Will at least be enabled toeprop-
erly formulate his adverse criticism of
the present system of overworking the
youthful mind.
DR.. Henderson asserts that the school
should not set standard toward which
all pupils must ba relentlessly urged,
but should accept the material offered,
whether brilliant or below the average,
adapting its curriculum to the require
ments of the minds at hand. That this
is not done is daily shown by the num-
Der of children who drop out of the
race from physical inability to endure
the struggle.
Happiness constituting the ideal con-
dition of the child it becomes a puz-
zling and painful problem to account
for the lack of pleasure and spon-
taneity in the preparation of school
work at home. It is probable that the
problem is solved by Mr. u. Thompson,
who as parent as we'll as teacher,
speaks with authority when he says
that children break down from worry
in trying to learn at home what should
be taught in the classroom, and that
teachers break down from worry in try
ing to make pupils learn by themselves
what should have been taught in the
classroom"
Will not others of our teachers who
doubtless spend hours of thought on
this interesting and vital question give
their views on the subject?

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES soao.oaosoaoeo
Tue FORK To EAT
YOUR MANGO WITH

< The mango season is nearly upon the
, islands again. The old question is stin
s discussed: How do you eat mangoes o.
( There are many ways of eating them
2 but the neatest is with a fork-a mango
5 fork-an odd piece of table furniture
< that will add to the variety and novel
ty of silver set and at the same time
) be very useful. Manages of many Varf-
( cites grow very abundantly in Hawaii.
They are common, so common in fact
that one must eat them in the incest
s way possible if he expects to thorough
z " enioy them. Fingers have been the
most common mango forks, but the
5 genuine mango fork is shown in the ac-
Z companying illustration.
This is a photograph of one OF
5 large number of mango forks which
: have recently been added to the silver
ware closets of the Alexander Young
Hotel. Alexander Young designed
fork some ten years ago and has been
using a set of them ever since but the
one shown in the picture is modlhca-
ton of his first design and the handle
to it is of the same design as all of the
other silverware of the hotel.
Alexander Young has great fond
ness for Hawaiian fruit and this was
one reason why he purchased the ka-
lihi farm, formerly the Allan Herbert
farm, as hotel supply depot. The ka-
lihi farm is we'll stocked with fruit ana
particularly with a large number of dlf-
ferent kinds of mangoes. 1t is the in
tention of Mr. Young to take good care
of the fruit farm and if possible to i'm
prove on the varieties to be found there
now.
Mangoes are becoming more popu-
lar in the fruit markets on the main
land each year and Hawaiian producers
may in time secure as good market
there for mangoes as they now have for
bananas. A system of shipping man
goes in baskets, each mango separate
ly wrapped, has been found to work
very satisfactorily and should be use
full to Hawaiian shippers.
