The Port Gibson reveille. [volume] (Port Gibson, Miss.) 1890-current, 1909-12-09

On Saturday, November 27th,
Prof. A. B. Mckay of the A. & M.
College directed tree planting and
other improvements on the pavilion
grounds. Representatives from all
of the white schools of the county
as we'll as the teachers entered into
the work of the day with much en-
thusiasm and a great deal was ac-
complished. Many valuable sug-
gestions were offered by Prof. Nc
Kav for future work along this
line. The day was not spent alto
gether in doing the manual labor
incident to laying off and planting
the ground, but every teacher and
-pupiI received instructions that will
be valuable in the improvement OF
the country homes as we'll as the
schools.
The benefits derived from the
observation of arbor day in this
county last spring were seen lmme+
diately. Every school not only
planted trees and shrubbery on the
grounds, but many of the pupils
planted trees around their homes.
we infer from this fact that III
many instances we are getting I'M
mediate results from the efforts ex-
'pended in training the children.
The tendency to train only the
mind has done much to disgust
children with school and has been
indirectly the cause of many fail
ures in life. If on the contrary
the hand had been trained as well as
the head, the child could have seen
readily the relation between school
life and the life that he must lead
in after years. Some parents oD-

sides Books" is mentioned in
connection with school work, and
are ready to pronounce their child
rem idiots If they cannot digest and
assimilate all the knowledge in the
text books. We are not so unreas-
enable as to expect our stomachs to
digest unlimited quantities of all
kinds of foods, nor do we ex-
pect different appetites to crave the
same kind of food in the same
quantity every day.
In education we want to train
the mind to plan and the hand to
execute the plan. In the study of
horticulture, what is gained if the
pupils can explain accurately the
process of budding and grating
and cannot do the work with his
own hands? In the study of Eng
lish grammar, what value is the
knowledge to a pupil that the sub
iect of a sentence is in the nomina-
tive case, if in the practical appli-
cation he uses the objective case
instead We need above all things
to teach the pupil to apply TO some
practical use the knowledge that he
has gained.

the sky men become better than
they are under the roofs and in the
contaminated air of the pleasure
houses that have for centuries been
the rallying- places of that "good
time" the human heart has sought
so long in ways so futile.
What the world waits for is not
the new woman alone, but the
new man. 'tOne swallow does not
make a SUMNER" and one parent
by the hearthstone does not make
a home. We need to stop singing
the old ditty, "what is home with
out a MOTHER" unless we add,
"The father alone can make the
house home" If he spends his
leisure time in what is now popu-
larly known as "The Working
mans Club" a disguised name for
the dram-shop and his wages are
levied on by the proprietor, a New
Woman will be necessary to keep
the home together unless he him
self becomes a New Man.
We need a new man in the edi-
tors sanctum who will not dip up
beer along with his ink; new
man in the pulpit who will recogog-
nize the right and the sore need of
the church to the completest par
ticipation of women in all its exer-
cises and its counsels; we need a
new man in the laboratory who
will not as the ultimatum of his
studies, rule God out of the uni
verse; we need a new man IN the
medical profession who will not
administer alcoholics nor practice
vivisection; we need a new man at
the bar who will strive to make
peace instead of pocket fees; we
need new man in the legislature
and cabinet who really believes in
the Ten Commandments and su-
premely seeks the welfare of the
people.-Frances E. Willard.
