FOREST SCHOOL IN GERMANY

4 MONG the many novel features OF
~ modern education that are to be
found i'm Germany the Waldschule
(the forest school) is one of the most
novel and interesting The term forest
school indicates it's character. 1t is q
school IN the open air--it has the full
value of public school, besides the
enormous advantage of being outdoors.
This school is not public In the sense
of being open to all children, nor is il
planned for all children although this
would meet with the greatest an
proval of the teachers and pupils OF
Berlin.
1t admits only such pupils who on
account of insufficient bodily strength
are not able to hold their own in the
regular public schools with their big
classes and their many hours Of work.
1t is one of the privileges OF our mod
ern age to pay much more attention to
the development of the child, to value
1t in manner unknown to former
generations and to try to give to all
children fair treatment and fair judg-
ment.
Physicians state that in many chill
dren who have up to now been thought
lazy, inattentive and capricious, these
tfditS are frequently uuS 10 lnelr DnY-
sical condition. In order to help their
minds their bodies must be helped first
Better hygenic conditions must be Of,
fered to them before anything else
Just as special classes are formed to
help children who are mentally de-
fective. schools of help must be formed
for those pupils who are weak bodily,
whether it be constitutiona1ly or not
Our schools for the blind, the deaf and
mute and other unfortunate beings
exist, but what has been done and is
being done for children who are below
average strength and resistance with
out being real invalids?
SPECIAL SCHOOL, SPECIAL NEEDS
A special school must be formed for
these pupils who are temporarily un-
able to cope with the work expected
from normal children, and 1t must take
into, account their special needs. This
thought was the origin of the first
forest school founded four years ago
in Charlottenburg. In most public
schools there are pupils whose physical
condition makes 1t desirable not to be
together with the other pupils. The air
in the schoolroom. the short interrup-
tions from work and the exertions

Crumbs to the Birds

A bird appears thoughtless thing,
He's ever living on the wing,
And keeps up such carolng,
That little else to do but sing
man would guess had he.
No doubt he has his little cares,
And very hard he often fares,
The which so patiently he bears,
That listening to those cheerful airs.
Who knows but he may be
In want of his next meal OF seeds?
! think for that his sweet song pleads
If so, his pretty art succeeds,
I'll scatter there among the weeds
All the small crumbs L have.
