STUDY OF GEOGRAPHY.

Times change and the people with
them; old ideas give way to new; the
pathway of civilization is strewn with
ing science. religion and government,
and the practical side of life is now
being considered. During the past CEN
fury great changes have taken place
in the methods employed in irnparting
information in the schools, and in this
age of communication the trend in
teaching is naturally towards educating
the youth of the land along lines which
will prove OF practical benefit in the
battle of life.
AS an instance of this we read that
the teachers attending the summer
schools in New York had recently Wis
tied the great shipping docks for the
purpose of better acquainting them
selves with the actual conditions
which prevail in this branch of COM
merce. They watched the men load
and unload vessels flying the flags of
many nations, made minute inquiries
and took copious notes TO be used in
the classroom. There has been de-
mand on the part of leading educators
all over the country for some new
raphy, and the idea is being worked
out by Dr. Charles T. McFarlane, who
comments on the work already accom-
plished as follows:
1.-The teaching of geography in its
every branch has greatly changed dur
ing the past twenty to twenty-five
years. During that time the notion ha:
grown, and has now come to be con
viction, that the proper way to begir
the study with children is to take then
out of. doors in their home locality L
study the physical and industrial con
ditions as they are found. This move
ment has gone so far that the state de
partment of education, in its elemen
tary syllabus prepared for the publ
schools for the state of New York, ad
yocates this sort of work as intro
ductory work in geography.
THE taking of geographical excur
sions is absolutely necessary for thi
sort of study. and it has been alread
practiced in the better class of school
in different parts of our country, 70

inland states II IS physical 1mpossi

geography is most apparent

tunity to study water front commerce

Breakfast as a Social Function.
From Ttt-Bits.


The customary breakfast given at the
opening of the legal term by the lord
chancellor in the house Of lords to
about 800 guests Is an institution which
goes back to the days of the versatile
Brougham For the last forty years it
has been held in the house of lords.
but at an earlier date it was given IN
the lord chancellor's residence. 1t Is
relic of the times when breakfast was
great social function.
Many other great men had what may
be termed the breakfast habit. thus
Mr. Gladstone was a regular g1Ver OF
breakfasts and a constant attendant at
them when given by others. OF recent
years, however, the breakfast has fallen
into desuetude as social function, ex-
cept at the universities, where young
men are still found who are capable OF
consuming three or four courses and the
while maintaining a genial flow OF ele-
CANT conversation.
Recently an attempt has been made to
revive the breakfast. Thus the king In
1907 at Newmarket issued several invl-
tations to breakfast parties. To our an
cestors the meal was solid one, OF
many dishes of meat, qualified by sack
possets or small beer, the ancient eauiva-
lent of soda water. Tea was not known,
and coffee was only to be found in the
medieval analogue OF the modern mu-
scum.

American Collars.
From Lesife's Weekly.


American collars have the reputation
OF being the best in the world, and a story
recently printed confirms this impression.
A distinguished foreigner, who visited
New York city recently. complained be-
cause its French collars went to ruin SO
quickly In the laundry. The laundrynan
insisted that the fault was with the col
lars. and advised him to try some of
American make. The titled stranger did
so, and was pleased. and to further put
the matter to the test gave q new French
collar and q new American collar to the
laundryman to test them and see which
would stand the wash the better. The
French collar went to pieces after passing
twenty-five times through the laundry.
while the American collar went unbroken
through the mangle sixty times. So
much for the skill and good workman
ship OF the men and women who make
American collars. and of their employers
who furnish the best material that the
world affords.

The Medical Fee.
,m the North American Review.

From the North American Review.
The American Medical Association. our
highest medical authority, has never at
tempted to establish an ethical fee. In
point of fact, the fee evolves itself and
ever has been and ever will be a graded
one. The great bulk of practice Is prac-
tically charity-that is. it represents
small fees or no fees This Is true alike
in the remote country districts and In the
great metropolitan centers. There is one
difference however, which should be dis
tinctly remembered and that is that rural
charity Is generally deserved. whereas
urban charity Is often misplaced. 1t is
stated that practically IS per cent of the
entire practice of New York city is char
ity, and that In third of such cases
the doctor is imposed upon.
