THE COMMON GROUND.

movement favoring the wider use
OF schooolhouses, which has obtained
its greatest development in Rochester,
N. Y. is finding expression at this
moment in a national conference held
at the University OF Wisconsin. The
object is to make the schoolhouse a
civic centre for the locality IN which
il stands, where all could meet as on
common ground. On the practical
side of the question it is argued that
school buildings are not put to the full
lest possible use. They are open but
six hours day, FIVE days in the week
and forty weeks in the year. The
investment in school buildings is too
large to be permitted to become dead
capital and lie-idle more of the time
than it is actively employed. II the
property could be put to beneficial
use during the hours and weeks when
it is net needed for its prime purpose,
the education Of the young, it would
be good public economy to SO employ
the same.
That the community ought to get the
greatest possible returns from its in
yestments is an argument which is IN
contestible from the unitarian stand
point. Nor are the purposes for which
the use OF school buildings out Of
regular school hours is desired inconi-
patible with the highest educational
ideals. The education Of a citizen does
not end when, 10 his fourteenth or
fifteenth year, he has passed through
the upper grades of the grammer school;
t continues through life. In civic
affairs nothing is more instructive than
discussions in which those to be in.
structed take part. Lectures, readings
and music are included in the pro-
grams of the advocates Of the wider
use" OF the schools; nor are indoor
gymnastics. hygenic and domestic
science neglected. The school house
as q social centre would promote neigh
borliness. In Rochester and other
cities, where the movement has furtbest
advanced, many foreigner, and many
native-born adults rs we'll, discovered
for the first timer these school centres
OF civism that Amer. ca is great social
and political organism whereof they
are integral parts Because they are held
in schoolhouees these gatherings are
likely to be Of greater value than if
held anywhere else. And the schools
will be bettered as educational centres
rather than otherwise by becoming
part of the lie of. and places of in
terest for, the whole family.

Mr.. Manufacturer, Business Man and

Did you ever stop to realize that
we should have the most progressive

that it requires is to get together and
work and boost, day and night.
The city should be run by all the

you will see an entire change III

ridiculed as a finished town; get busy
form a boosting committee and get
every one interested. See that every
thing that is mailed, expressed or
freighted is boost for our city-and
labeled to that effect. Send out cir
culars, induce manufacture, no mat
ter how large or small, to come here
and begin operations.
We have number of advantages
over other cities more flourishing
than ours. Take for instance: Deep
water to one of the largest seaports
on the Atlantic Coast nd six differ
ent railroad lines leadis9 Oil over the
fast growing South. An, | tell you,
good people, now is the time to act

pouring into the pockets OF the nler-
chants Of Baltimore, Philadelphia,
New York, Buffalo and any number
Of Northern and Western cities that
should stop right here-the gateway
for the fast growing and fourishing
South.
We have a good healthy climate
here. wide streets. good schools, and
in fact, everything that goes to make
mans life worth living.
