FADs IN THE SCHOOLS.

The New York board of education
has voted to shorten the course OF
study in the elementary schools, cut
ting out the "fads and fancies," and
combining the instruction strictly to
essentials.
The teaching Of sewing, physical
training, organized games, physiology
| hygiene and drawing will accordingly
be dropped in the first year Of the
elementary course and attention will
be concentrated upon the three RS.
The shortening of hours is an i'm
portant desideratum in the case OF
small children. Thin-chested and
specialized little ones are a pathetic
protest against over-work and over
confinement in the schools. All the
fine educational frills and feathers
ever conceived do not weigh in the
balance against health.
Faddists have had too much recog-
milton in the public schools of this
country generally. Every crank
thinks his own particular hobby the
all-important one, and the lists OF
studies have become numbered up
with the bright thoughts of several
generations of amateur educational
lists Meanwhile, common sense has
had poor chance.
only a short time ago. says Com
missioner Adams of the New York
board, II was directed by concern
with which I am connected to secure
the services of two young men as
clerks. There were about 12O appli-
cants for these positions. The great
er portion of them were from the
public schools of this city. You ought
to see the letters they wrote! They
were absolutely disgraceful. The
spelling was bad and the writing was
worse
The same complaint comes from
every quarter. The colleges COM
plain of the bad spelling of would-be
matriculates, and even the engineer
ing schools assert that the engineers
they turn out cannot write a report in
decent English.
There is little doubt that many of
the results of the present curricula of
ologies are bad. The theories sound

NewIands Reclamation Act.

the Newlands reclamation act opened
the way for national irrigation, and
forming a stable basis for all future
irrigation work, will relieve the irri-
CATION congress of further effort
along this line, and also make posi-
BILE the purely scientific developments
discussed at the congress just passed,
This act provides thai the proceeds
from the sale of public lands shall
constitute a reclamation fund for the
construction of irrigation works in
fhe thirteen states and three territor-
les of the west. When the works
struction under the provisions of this
act are completed, upward of million
acres of land will be legally subd1vid-
ed and placed in the possession of
settlers These works are built with
out profit to the government, and are
to be paid for by the land owners in
ten annual instalments, thus making
the fund working capital which can
be re-expended an indefinite number
of times for irrigation purposes. Up
ward of $27,000,000 are now available
under the reclamation act. To the
reclamation service of the United
States geological survey is entrusted
the enormous task of expanding this
money in surveys and examinations
and in the construction of irrigation
