Training the Appetite.


The question is often asked, "Should
children be compelled to eat food that
they dislike?" The question is rather
puzzling one, and there may be as
many views upon it as there are upon
most educational queries. A few dec
AIDES ago the question was rarely raised.
The saying was handed on from gen
GRAFTON to generation that children
should be made to eat what was set
before them," and that was all there
was to it.
The writer still recalls the Aoathing
distaste with which, some three times
a week all through his extreme youth,
he watched the bringing on of certain
hateful dumping and gravy dish at
the school midday dinner. 1t was the
aversion of his youth, and it would
never have been "downed' had it not
been for the fact that he feared his
master more than he did his qualms.
But out of evil may come forth good,
and honesty compels him to confess
that the result Of this ever-renewed
battle between his tastes and his dunn
ping is that, with the exception Of
parsnips, he can now eat everything
eatable with resignation, if not enjoy
ment.
One would have to turn to a nursery
governed by an exaggerated form Of
mushy concession to obtain the COM
panion picture to this one, but u1doubt-
edly many such nurseries are to be
found. Here one may discover as many
likes and dislikes as there are people
to form them. Mary cannot bear NUT
ton, and a special dish must be pre-
pared for her on chop day. Jack de-
tests SOUP, and Bobby - an uncanny
notwithstanding Bobby - will not
touch jam. 1t is impossible to help a
certain longing for some of the good
old-fashioned practice in a case like
eliminated against is really necessary
one in the dietary-as milk, for eX-
ample-the child should be made, in the
old-fashioned phrase, to learn to like
it."
Children who have fads in the mat
ter of food should never be allowed to
touch food between meals, but should
always go to the table hungry. Their
likes and dislikes should never be dis
cussed before them. With plenty of
water to drink between meals, good.
healthy hunger to carry to the table,
and simple nursery dishes appetizingly
served, most children will eat without
question the food set before them

The passion for travelling, whether
alone or with the family or in the COM
pa1y of f1ag-waving citizens from the
Panhandle and Great Lakes, has done
the American people a world of good.
The intelligent observation of foreign
life has a leveling effect that is good
for the observer himself, and for the
world in general. 1t dulls conceit and
sharpens sympathy. The Japanese have
taken a leaf out of the American book
in this respect, and in the last few
years have begun to travel fast and
far. Americans spend millions Of dol
lars in Europe; but it is hardly open
to a question that the extravaganza
which some people deprecate is not
more than Offset by the inestimably
beneficial impressions received by the
thousands who keep their eyes and ears
rather than their purses open, and who
bring these impressions back to improve
the Stay-at-homeS.

was in a country printing office that
this author of popular Southern tales
became first associated with literature.
Beyond a few terms at the Eatonton
Academy, Harris had no regular educa-
ton. AS a STRIPPING of II he became
a printers devil" on small weekly
published on a plantation. Then came
the civil war. Following that, Harris
became a full-fedged journalist. He
was employed successfully in Macon,
New Orleans and Savannah. In the
latter city he married Miss La Rose,
a French Canadian. He was fast win

interest of readers to such an extent
that Mr.. Harris was asked to write a
book, which had a wide sale here and
abroad. Then he wrote for magazines
and turned out other books, which
brought him a snug income. In 1888 he
published Nights with Uncle Remrs -
in 1884, "Mingo and Other Sketches in
Black and White" in 1887, Free Joe
and Other Georgia Sketches" OF all
his works, "Blue Dave" published in
1888, was his pet.
Mr.. Harris was a great lover Of chill
dren and domestic life and modest to
bashfulness. He never could explain
why people were so interested in his
books. He was shy Of women, but de
lighted to romp with his own or neigh
bors' children. Two Of his sons are
engaged in newspaper business.

All classes Of thinkers, realizing that
education Is the nations first problem,
have contributed to the discussion Of
the school question. The physician
has made his plea for the child's
health, the clergyman has put in his
word for religious instruction, the en-
ployer has asked for schools to send
him graduates trained in the rudiments
of business All this interest in educa-
ton stimulates teachers and keeps the
schools abundantly equipped and pro
gressive. But under all the varied
questions, the fundamental purpose of
education is sometimes buried from
sight. Prof. Friedrich Paulsen, a Ger.
nan teacher and philosopher, has re-
Gently summoned his countrymen to

ucation. His article, translated in the
Educational Review, bids US hold fast

drive a controlled mind to definite
goal, and that schools and parental dis

ject the making Of civilized men and
women out Of raw material. So that
when a devotee of "child-psychology
advocates the study of the child-bent
and adaptation of educational methods
to the young individual soul, the old
fashioned teacher agrees, provided the
teacher and not the child is to do the
adapting. When the preacher Of health
and nature shows the beautiful devel
opment Of free childhood running wild
in the open fields, the old-fashioned
teacher admits the poetry of the idea,
but insists that the child will never
enjoy freedom until he has learned me-
thodically to do as he Is told, indoors
and out. And when the peda gogical
expert devises a course in manual
training, French, music and nature
study, the same old-fashioned teacher
accepts the combination, provided the
pupil be required to do his work thor
oughly in each subject, whether he likes
| it or not.

Its a queer thing" remarked the
professor, chow people can control their

The inventor with whom he happened

trained to use our eyes and to use them

change In the expression of his lips I

that the mustache has uses.''

And the lower lip, if you'll take the
trouble to notice, is, if anything, more

In an editorial upon farming meth
DDS the Electrical Review says that the
advances made In transporting and
manufacturing since the adaptation Of
electricity TO motors should be repeated
on the farm. Says the Review: 1T
will be strange if before long the spirit
OF advance does not infuse a new life
into farming methods. May we not ex-
pect that our newer power agencies
will extend their influence to the work
Of the farm, relieving it Of much of the
drudgery that still exists and making
the work as attractive and pleasant as
any other pursuit? When this comes
about we may expect to see farming
take on new life and flourish again
in places where it has long languished.
Deserted farms may then be reclaimed
and a profitable field of work offered
to many who now crowd into the manu-
featuring towns in search of s1lrer
means of livelihood" An instance is
cited where a small waterfall on an
abandoned mill site was harnessed and
made TO do the work Of two horses and
light the buildings on two farms The
total cost of installation was about equal
to the value of two good horses. and
the cost of running the plant is prac-
tically nothing. 1t requires but little
