BEFORE AND AFTER SCHOOL HOURS.

w YHEN people condemn the schools because so many pupils
M seem to have gone through them as Shadrach, Meshech
w and Abcdnego went through the flaming fiery furnace
without even the smell of fire on their garments-peoper really con-
damn themselves. That Is the reflection which abides after ponder.
M Mayor 0aynors assertion that the city's common schools are try
hg b do too much, that children arc overloaded "and get q disgust
Of the whole thing" and that they come out with no accurate knowl-
edge of anything and disincined to work with their hands.
The fault Of the schools? No. Tho fault or misfortune Of tho
nome, rather. We are asking the schools to do too much because the
home is doing too little. An avowed reason for tho presence Of "fads
and frirls" in school courses is the fact that city children have no
playground but the streets. It is considered better to keep them
longer hours in the schools, learning things that do not purport to
b the strong meat Of mental training, than to let them follow their
own devices among horses heels and truck wheels. II tho "tired
business man" or the tired parent Of either sex and any degree Of
fortune abdcates responsibility for the child's upbringing no cannot
expect that anybody else, anybody without tho incentive OF natural
affection, will completely take his place. His children will be ma
chine-madc products and fall as far short Of their promise o. . shoe
hafsoled by machine falls short of the hand-scwed article.
Some things which the schools may pretend to teach may never
b learned if not in the home. One is the childs willingness to labor
With his hands, or to labor at all. It rests with the parent whether
the child shall acquire habits Of industry and whether his tasks shall
be Get for him so as to make manual labor attractive or ~distasteful.
Il rests with the parent to train tho chnds Judgment 90 that his
choice Of occupation shall DO neither above nor below nor beside his
apttudes and abilities. The chnds speech reflects the talk Of father
and mother and his manners the degree Of refinement In the home
It il the opportunity and privilege as well % duty Of parents to lead
his mind into the paths Of literature, and from his first demand for .
"story" open up the enchanted land in which arc all the great, sim
ply expressed poems Of the language, its myths, ito folklore, is fables,
ito sterling tales Of romance and adventure. Tho right sort Of books
ahould be in the home and children made acquainted with them.
The parent, then, has . responsibility no less than the schools
that the child shall demean himself properly, speak correctly, think
clearly and-that universal mark Of mental capachy-shal properly
Judge evidence. Honor, obedience, patience, genteness, unselfshness
these things should be taught in tho home first Of all, and the
parent who sights them has no call to complain II they be not
deeply undersigned in the school. The latter does q necessary and a
time-saving work, but for all we may glorify the public school it is
only . supplement, q substitute, a proxy for the home.

They seldom keep records as

generally have little or no

is the case in the business of
farming. Very few farmers
