sence of many of the little people. the
| nature study was resumed after the
! Easter holiday with marked interest.
| The fat, and built-up representations.
] of the return Of the birds from the south
land were expressed very satisfactorily.
| Many Iacts showed the little people to
have developed the aL---y to mink con-
nectedly and relatedly and work out the
| general subject Of cause and effect in a
| way ..iat was wholly satisfying to them
selves.
! 1t is matter of specitl remark that a
shown an almost greedy desire to be
first at the mid-morning luncheon has
/ gained enough self-controi so that she
sat at the table classifying her material
| being naturally slower Of brain and hand
o-ordination-whole all the others were
partaking OF popcorn. candy. peanuts
| and water. She sat alone. but happily
kengaged, having refused the teachers
and little favorite friends help. who
generously offered her assistance
Neither assistants nor children are ex-
pected to ever help any one with their
table work or hand-work. The work is
so planned that every child must express
the thought as individuals and not as
classes.
They may be saved until the little ones
have grown to man and womanhood and
be worth while as a link in the chain of
memory That will recall their childhood
days Days that parents. teachers. and
all peoples should be vigilent in that the
early childhood should have the best pos
sible environment and advantage
Best environment doesn't mean biggest
house, highest priced furniture, nor
the "most monew' to be used in self
indulgence and etc's to an almost un-
limited extent Nor does best advantages
mean TO speak pieces" or sing for
grown ups, nor highly seasoned food.
nor the best clothes,'' nor the cleanest
face and hands, and again etc's TO an un-
limited extent
Some cnildren's remarks and obSerVa-
tions:

am not-I don't know what makes her
say it,
They say George Washington is the
best president that ever was, but think
we have a better one now. We have
picture Of Roosevelt at our house"
IF you'll let me take II home my mama
will do il for me-she knows about kim
dergartens."
Proof positive that the mother didn't
know enough of Froebers philosophy or
principles to interpret them rightly for
her child's best good.

The Denver branch OF the ID.
II. BALDWIN piano house, at 1859
fremont street, is in receipt OF a
telegram saying that the superior
jury of the St. Louis exposition
has indorsed the action of the
other two juries in awarding the
Baldwin piano the grand prize
over all comp. titors, both Ameri-
can and European. This makes
the victory Of the Baldwin piano
at St. Louis complete and taken
in connection with the fact that
this piano carried of the grand
prize at the Paris exposition in
1900, something which no other
American piano ever did, leaves
no room to question the SUPERIOR
ty Of the BALDWIN instrument.
The method of awarding the
prizes at ST. Louis has been very
thorough. and those Who have
carried them off have succeeded
purely on the merits Of their ex-
hibits. In the piano exhibits two

wALTHoUR SAILS AWAY

Walthour, who holds the mile rec ord of 1.O6, has sailed for Europe, where he will compete against the best middle-distance riders of Paris and Berlin.
 The speedy member of the Column bia team, who won AZ races out of 53 starts last year, took Gusste Lawson with him as q pacemaker, and also his manager, Eli Weinsett, who is ac- knowledge to be an expert on motor machines.
 Walthour has contract with Vic Tor Breyer, manager of the Buffalo track in Paris, for six races against any one who cares to meet him. The broWn-legged southerner does not ex- pect to secure victories without riding fast, and just before sailing on the steamer he said that with proper pace-making he expected to cover miles in a minute, in order to win over the French and German riders. Walthour will return to America about May first for the middle dis tance races, which will be feature of most of the bicycle tracks this sea- son.
