study of animals, and natures pro-

topics are endless, Thus the chill
dren may be taught to realize that
the whole universe is a great, living,
thinking, feeling thing, and back
of it all is the One Life, throbbing
and puising through it.
With intelligent thought, rightly
presented, the farm can be shown to
be such wonderful store-house of
marvellous things-that the boys and
girls will forget the cities with their
glittering alIurements, In their in
tense interest in things right at
hand.
The School Social Center presents
the opportunity. The school rooms
should be thrown open for all kinds
of meetings Of an uplifting character
including social functions. holiday
celebrations, lectures, musicals, etc,
Certain branches of domestic
science should be given a place in
every country school curriculum.
Few country housewives have ever
been taught efficient dress-making.
Why not employ sewing-teacher,
from some nearby city, Who under
stands her work thoroughly, to give
series of lessons at the School So
cial Center, the classes to be attend
ed by both mothers and daughters?
While most farmers wives are ex-
celent cooks, few understand food
values, or food hygiene. This branch
of domestic science should be thor
oughly taught by an expert dieti-
clan.
Then why not hold neighborhood
fairs and exhibitions, where both
domestic arts, and farm products
may be displayed, thus arousing In
creased and enthusiastic interest in
everyday work
Nor should the boys be neglected
small building might be erected,
a good carpenter employed, and a
manual training class organized.
Lectures, illustrating scientific farm
ing, might be given.
Truly opportunity is knocking at
the door OF the Rural School Social
Center VIII the farmers realize the
fact, and grasp it?
