MY Book and My Heart Shall Never
Part was the unique subject of a
paper by Dotha Stone Pinneo, secre-
tary of the Connecticut Federation of
Women's Clubs.
Miss Pinneo divided her topic into
two heads. the vast Importance Of the
scheme of education as manifested in
the public schools, free libraries and
free lectures; secondly. the grave re-
sponsibility of our educated classes for
extending the influences of these
forces. Owing to the influx of foreign
born immigrants in such numbers. the
application of the three forces in the
first subdivision is imperative. They
must be assimilated and become Amer
icanized by the schools, free libraries
and free lectures.
She sighted libraries and free lee
lures to continue and supplement the
work Of the schools. In order to en-
nance the system Of education in this
country. the process must not cease
with the term of school attendance; 1t
must be continuous in succeeding
years to obtain best results, particu-
larly with the common people who too
frequently are unable to continue their
studies after they become old enough
to work.
There were no other speakers and
the convention adjourned until 9
o'clock, tomorrow morning.

Evening Session.

Another immense audience had
gathered, tonight, when the general
session was again called to order to
listen to addresses by speakers who
occupy prominent positions in educa-
tional affairs.
Mrs. Frederick Schoff of Philadel-
phia, who is president Of the National
Congress of Mothers. was greeted with
most cordial welcome. She spoke
upon the national outlook for child
hood.
Sarah Louise Arnold, dean of SIM
mons College Of Boston. talked of 1.-THE
Home as a Factor in Education"
Mrs. Arnold said in part:
Education is the sum of progress or
experiences by which the child is made
familiar with the experiences Of the race
and at best the school can contribute
only few links In the long chain of ex-
perience. The knowledge that is essen
tail is not the knowledge of the world of
books but knowledge of life and its laws.
Achievement is fair test of education
and a true one. Humble or homely, it
matters not: the shame is idleness in
the world of toll, helpessness In the pres
ence of need, do less in the world of
deeds.
All instruments. all conditions all re-
suits in the school are subordinate to
the results in the student. All are for
his sake. The various arts and pro-
cesses are after all subordinate to the
greater work for caring for the children
at home. The home provides the fun
damental knowledge and assures the fun
damental principals of conduct. The
child, when he enters school and con-
fronts his first lesson, will succeed or
fail in proportion as he has been taught
at home. If the home is to make this
contribution to this responsibility 1t is
a center from which her influence may
radiate. none can tell how far.
She must know nature and the laws of
nature, human life and it's laws, child
life and all that concerns child life, and
the outside world into which the child
must enter 1t is important then not
only that she should know. but that she
should be the thing she would teach.
Here then is our noblest. our finest and
our most responsibility. If the home has
for our task which, let us thank God,
can never be given into other hands.
Forever and forever the task of woman
hood must guide. to direct to shelter and
to guard those who are coming to do the
work of the world. For this then shall
our daughters be taught; for this sacred
work no preparation can be too wise,
too earnest or too careful. For this
worthy task no strength, no wisdom, no
skill can be too great. For this sacred
responsibility must We bring our most
earnest endeayor our most loyal SER
vice and our most perfect conservation.
