A remarkable change in the nature
OF school boys is discussed by the su.
perintendent Of public instruction OF
Washington. He says they no longer
mar their desks. The crude. sprawl
ing initials that. In olden days. were
carved deep into the desks no longer
appear. Even scratches and ink
stains Of barbaric design are missing.
The school boy OF to-day, in Washing
ton at least. has become good or his
activities are exhausted in other chan
nels. Supt. Stuart inclines to the lat
ter theory. He says that the motor
activities OF the child. when not re
strained. lead to desk cutting and such.
In Washington. he AYERS these activi-
ties have been directed into peaceful
aud productive agents for the accom-
piishment OF good and are controlled
