WHERE THE KINDERGARTEN SUCCEEDS


led to observe the habits of animals
birds, Mowers and the simpler activ-
tiles OF men, which relate to his vital
needs of food and shelter. He learns
of their varying Importance, and OF
how these relate to his welfare.
What the child sees ne viii imi-
tate, nothing can keep him from 1T.
The child, who has never heard of
kindergarten initiates everything he
sees and hears. and why should Miss
Porter make such fuss because tho
kindergarten lets him initiate whole
some activities That is the child's
way of finding out what the different
actions of men and animals are.
Through these plays he gains physical
activity and freedom of expression be-
fore he can express his ideas in Ian
guage or writing. His gift building
gives him the most definite impressions
Of form and number. Story work also
gives him wide range of new ideas,
new words and helps him to under
stand a variety of experiences, which
would be impossible otherwise for him
to have. The valuable habit OF atten-
ton is also formed by these means.
The spiritual development Of chill.
dren is claimed to be stunted by our
pernicious familiarity with the won
ders of the earth. Is IL stunning to
the child to observe the winds and the
SUM- the earth and the water? Do
the simple old myths and legends
about these make him too familiar
with the great forces of nature which
are the handiworks Of Cod? one great
value of the kindergarten is entirely
omitted from Miss Porter's article and
that is it's great socializing value.
There are certainly some dangers from
associating together. but there are also
great benefits. People have to live
together in this world, and they have
to learn how to do this. The average
child in the home is not called upon
to adjust himself to others of his own
age, he may have his playmates when
and where he will, but the kindergar-
ten helps him to realize that he is one
OF many, that there is always the good
of the whole to be considered, and that
the individual must learn at times TO

Child Culture Series No. 4, by Fran
ces Portman, director of kindergarten
work at the state normal school, VAL
ley City, n. D., Is as follows:
In the March number Of The Ladies
Home Journal is printed an article en-
titled Where The Kindergarten Fails,
which claims to point out the misde-
meanors OF the average" kindergarten
by disregarding the physical, mental
and spiritual needs of the child No
system claims perfection, but Miss
Porter's article attacks many things
not found in good average kindergar-
tens today. do not know where or
when she has observed kindergartens
but surely she has been very unfortu-
nate in the types selected.
From the physical standpoint, the
kindergarten gives the child as good
or better air. more equable heating,
and more comfortable physical sur
ropndings than the average home. The
two and a half hours a. day are spent
in a definite method which both oc-
cupies and trains restless. active bodies
and minds. Let little children be
animals" say many. All right; If you
ChHs AIiluIRn nave InlH0b anu Lley
will not remain mere animals no mat
ter how hard you try to make them.
AS for the eye strain, which is so
dwelt upon, no kindergarten, of any
standing whatever, uses pricking, sew
ing, stringing of straws and paper, or
peas work. What bead stringing there
is, is done with half-inch wooden beads
strung upon shoe strings. surely not
much strain on the average eye. The
physical examination showed that only
one child out Of our twenty-five had
any symptoms Of near sightedness or
astigmatism.
Now as to the inaccurate mental
habits of which we are accused. We
are told that the world about us will
give us accurate mental habits. Is
that true? This great blooming buzz
ing world" is pretty liable to be con-
fusing-the child gets variety Of i'm
pressions, but does he learn to con-
meet these, and is anyone educated
who cannot relate together varied ex-
periences? The kindergarten child is

PLANS MADE FOR
ROLLO STATUE
ENTHUSIASTIC MEETING HELD
LAST NIGHT AT COMMERCIAL
CLUB TO CONSIDER WAYS AND
MEANS or SECURING NEW
RoLLo STATUE FOR FARGO.

Mayor Lowell presided over an en-.
thusiastic mass meeting of citizens last
night at the Commercial club which
was held to consider ways and means
for securing the famous Rollo statue
for the city OF Fargo the state OF
North Dakota and the Norwegian pop
ulation of this section of the country.
The meeting closed with the decision
that a committee of nine would be
appointed TO look after the details I'm
connection with the bringing of the
statue to Fargo, it's unwilling and
raising of funds that will defray the
transportation expenses and the
bronze casting Three of this COM
mittee are to be appointed by Mayor
Lowell, to consist of the members of
the board Of park commissioners, three
to be named by the commercial club
and three by the Sons Of Norway.
The mayor announced he had been
in communication with the mayor of
Rouen, France, in regard to the model
Of the statue which that city had Of
fered to Fargo.
This model is of terra Gotta and 1t
WAS AEdIIEu that II dLBO III
a bronze casting, which would be more
suitable for an outdoor statue, could
be secured at a cost of $1,000. The
base and other expenses would prob
ably bring this up to $500 more The
terra Gotta model win be presented
free of charge with the freight prepaid.
Many were heard on the subject and
IL was the general consensus of opin-
ion that a bronze model was the only
proper thing. A terra Gotta would be
appropriate for the interior of public
building like the Carnegie library but
but il would not be seen by majority
of visitors who came to the city either
for business purposes or pleasure. AS
an advertisement to the city 1t was
considered a bronze model which would
stand the elements would be the only
appropriate thing.
Secretary Ballou Of the Interstate
Fair association expressed a wish that
the unwilling Of the statue take place
next August during fair time, and that
such was the desire of PresidenL Scott
OF the association, who was now IN
Florida. Other speakers were B. @
Tenneson. H. H. Aaker, c. II. Anheier
r. o. Belland and A A. Trovaten, who
has been exceedingly active in the Sc
curing Of the statue for the city.
AS to the expense in connection
with the bringing of the statue TO this
city and in obtaining the bronze cast
ing of the model, Mayor Lowell stated
that the city had no way to act as
there was no law by which 1t could
assist in the donation to the fund
which will necessarily have to be
raised. The committee created was
finally empowered with the raising OF
whatever funds were necessary and to
assume full charge of all details In
connection with the whole project
from the shipment of the statue from
France to its unwilling in this city.

A PERSONAL WORD TO THE
PEOPLE OF NORTH DAKOTA
Dr. Melvin L. Gates Sets Forth His Reasons For Removing From
Fargo and Expresses His Opinion of the "MedeaI Bill"
Passed BY the Recent Legislature. Patients Continue
Throng His New Offices in Moorhead.

This personal word is addressed to
the fair minded people of the state of
North Dakota who reserve for them
selves the right to choose the form of
treatment that they shall employ in heal
ing the sick, regardless of the law pass
ed by the recent legislature at the man
date of the medical doctors of the state.
Upon the passage of House Bill
100, by the recent Legislature, | was con-
fronted with the problem of becoming
a law breaker or of moving out of the
state. believe in obeying the law no
matter how repungent it may be and
chose the latter. | am now located in
Moorhead, in the Moorhead National
Bank building on Front street, where
my patients and those who wish my
services can find me at all hours.
That public sentiment is with me in
my fight against the doctors trust is
we'll illustrated by the fact that | am
simply overwhelmed with new patients
since my removal. During the days |
was at Bismarck fighting for chance
to make an honest living for my family,
many of my patients were naturally
obliged to return to their homes. When
the Naturopathy bill, which would have
made legal drugless healing in the state
Of North Dakota, was so shamefully
smoothered in the last hours of the SEES
sion, failed of passage, Twas undecided
as to what course / should pursue. At
the urgent solicitation of my friends
and patients / decided to stay in this
locality and fight on; hence my remov-
al to Moorhead.
The people of North Dakota are in
the grasp of as heartless an octupus in
the matter of their choice of healing for
the sick as ever were the small competit-
ors of the Standard Oil Co: They must
absolutely deter to the medical trust III

LIVERPOOL DOES
NOT FIX PRICES
]. n. FORSYTH HAS AN INTER
EsTINe DISCUSSION OF THE
PROPOSED RECIPROCITY AND
HAS SOME DECIDEDLY INTER
EsTINe FACTS AND FIGURES.

March l3.-To The Forum: Presi-
dent Taft, in his recent speech at Co
! iumbus. undertook to expOund and vim
dictate his policy relative to the reel
procity agreement. In defense Of the
obvious discrimination against the
farmer shown in the provisions of the
measure, he asserted that the wheat
raiser could not be injured thereby, as
the price OF his wheat was fixed at
Liverpool, and that Canada Is jusC
as much our competitor now as she
would be with free trade in wheat.
Now It is a matter Of common know
ledge to those who have to watch, that
for the past several years our wheaE
markets have not been controlled by
Liverpool; that II Liverpool happened
To require any of our wheat she had
to bid up for IL. And also that the
price paid the Canadian farmer along
the border has ranged from 8 to II
cents below the price received by the
american farmer just across the line.
In view of these facts 1t is fair to as
sumo that either the president was
ignorant of what he was presuming TO
talk authoritatiyely about, or was try
ing to mislead the people, in either
event of which he may be held equally
culpable.
In confirmation Of this, we have only
to refer to the action Of the wheat
market during the tendency Of the
Mccall bill in Congress, and especially
on the day that the senate adjourned
without taking action on the BILL
The Minneapolis Journal of March
4, in its market report for that day,
prints the following relative TO the
fluctuations in prices of wheat during
the uncertainty as to what would be
the fate of the bill: Wheat scared
UP to heights today that the market
has not seen in over two weeks. The
advance Of az to pa cents was the
biggest upward jump wheat has taken
in months. The adjournment of the
United States senate without acting
on the Mccall bill was the cause of
the sharp advance The market had
declined 15h cents, largely on the
prospects that the reciprocity treaty
might be adopted. Now that this bill
is temporarily disposed Of it was on
Iy natural that wheat should take a
sharp turn"
AS The Journal is an ardent sup
porter of the reciprocity measure, and
has devoted considerable space to en-
deavoring to convince the farmers that
they cannot suffer by it's adoption, 1t
can safely be assumed that this report
was not colored in opposition to that
policy
II the mere possibility OF ratifica-
tlon of the reciprocity agreement can
effect such startling reduction and
fluctuations in the price of grain, be-
