Some Educational Errors.
(By G. T. Howerton.)

Error 2 This error like many othors
in educational matters, crept into our
schools through the church via Pagan
ism. 1t would seem that the teachings
of the MAN of Galilee' would have
forever silenced any such error, but
still we find it in the ''tenets" of many
churches. Likewise in the ''tenets' of
most schools.
The child's desire is not made the
guide to school work by a long shot. In
fact, it is almost certain that the thing
is right because the child dislikes it.
And the more bitterly he rebels against
the medicine, the more certain is the
teacher that he should take it.
Activity is the law of childhood, but
in school he must be made to sit still.
| Laughter is his life, but in school he
| must not ever smile. Play and work
and work and play are his 'meat and
| his drink" but in school he must quit
both, and be made to read and spell and
do sums" and parse" and write sem
fences that would puzzle a Philadelphia
lawyer. 1--WE learn to do by doing,
therefore accustom the child to do, but
in school he is:told and made to don't"
When we recognize the child as a
normal human being, and make learn
ing only an incident of the school. We
shall be on the right road to reform the
school life.
Error 8, Separate Schools for the
Sexes-Of all the errors which have
crept into onr schools through the
church, or come galloping in through
an open door, this segregating boys and
girls has cost more in money and: hu-
man life and ineficiency and immoral
ity than anything else could do.
(a) In money. The Church and the
State must maintain two schools where
one would be sufficient-an many times
better.
Cb) In ineficiency. Boys and girls
have been set together in the same
family, and only in those families
where both have lived and grown up
together is there real efficiency. If
God had believed the presence of a girl
would injure a boy, he would have
planted their lives in different families.
But he did not. He gave the boy a sis.
ter and the girl a brother. male anc
female, created He them," and male
: and female He means for them to live
together.
: (c) In immortality. One of the mos
serious objections to a standing arm.
is that it separates men from the asso

he sank to the ground, dead.
Shortly after the two men were

the sleuths that Charlie Ross was no

him after the child had died with some
stomach complaint, probably the result
of starvation and ill-usage, and had told
him where the body had been thrown
in the river.
"A search for the body was made. A
body, partly decomposed, was taker

NEED FRESH AIR.

1t is mighty hard for some folks who
are afflicted with colds and other
bronchial ills and who are as afraid as
death of a breath of fresh air to re
aliZe that plenty of fresh air breathed
every night by having ones bedroom
ventilated is one of the very best
means for preventing colds, while. if
one gets a cold, breathing deep drafts
of fresh air in the open. coupled with
brisk walking, is one of the best means
of getting rid of it. The worst course
that can possibly be followed is to
shut oneself up in II stufy house, fire
up the stove, plug the keyholes with
cotton or paper and keep Kerosene
lamp burning at night If doctor
were making business for himself he
could not give Il prescription for pa
tient to follow that would beat this.
