When the departing of winter per-
vades the earth, and the first rays of
spring comes forth, bringing sunshine
to open the buds, then the first spring
birds have migrated with the spring
opening and soon little flowers will be
nodding their heads in the spring
breezes.
At this time of the year the effect
of spring seems to permeate man as
we'll as the rest of nature. The sea-
sons change makes man restless. The
call of the outdoor is stronger than
the call of toll.
Men and women should not let this
cali pass, unhonored. Be a part of
the regeneration of spring. By UNI
dergoing the change of nature, the
cares and worries of the past will be
bbliterated. No better medicine for
humanity, than dose of the glories
of nature, gathered in at springtime
on days jaunt in wood or meadow.
After the days journey go back to
the burdens of the day, rested and re-
freshed. Do you work well and faith
full, but when the cares of life seem
to again be coming your way, let your
thoughts go back to the JOY of living,

Teaching Children To

down in the same way, and he has
had far fewer falls than the average
baby boy of his age and activity. l
have never found anything yet that a
child could climb up upon that he
couldn't climb down just as safely. |
never encouraged climbing, but chill
dren all do it, and my way seems to
have been successful in preventing bad
results from their adventures. In a
short time after our baby had been
taught to climb down all the help he
needed was the reminder that he was
to hold very tight with his hands un-
til he had secured foothold.
eve lived in an apartment, and so
had not stairs to watch out for. But
the first time the baby saw stairs at
a friends house he was half way up
before we saw him. | showed him at
once how to get down in the same
way, and thereafter had no trouble.
He has never had fall down stairs.
"Of course, as l said, do not en-
courage climbing, and my first rule in
teaching a child to climb down from
anything is to be very careful. Nat
urally the little hands and feet slip
once in a while and a little bump is
the result, but it is never so severe as
a fall from the article itself would be,
and these falls are not of much con-
sequence. At any rate, believe that
it is one of the most valuable things
that can be taught to a child"

There are many new things that
we should teach our little Ones" said a
young mother the other day, "but
believe that | have found out some
thing about it really worth while. A
mother can save her child from many
a fall, some of which are likely to
be bad ones, if, just as soon as the
baby begins to 'climp up she
straightway teaches him also to
climb down.
THE first time my own little young
ster climbed safely up on the Nor
ris chair and gave his little squeal of
mixed delight and fear, my impulse
naturally was to seize him and lift
him down to safety. But second
thought told me instantly that such a
course would not have helped in the
slightest in future climbing expert
ments, and it would have prevented
no falls at all except that imminent
one.
Accordingly, adopted the other
plan, the one which has saved him
many falls since then. Instead of
hitting him down, | held him securely
where he was and then made him go
through the motion of getting down
backwards by himself, l merely keep
ing him from falling with one hand.
He grasped the idea at once, and held
on with his hands until one foot and
then the other touched the floor, when
| praised him highly. We went
through with the performance several
times, and he gained confidence with
each time until in few minutes, he
he could climb down as easily and
safely as he could climb up, and then

a 45-acre tract of land. The site is
perfected suited to the purpose. Lo-
Gated in rich valley on the banks of
the Latah river, it affords opportunity
for boating, swimming, skating,
abundance of ice for cutting, and wa
ter in plenty for irrigating purposes.
The school had been in oneration but
little over a year and being under
the direction of William Nj. Baker, a
man who received his training at the
Chicago Parental School, it is con-
Quoted similarly. 1t is organized on
the family plan, with cottages built to
accommodate 20 boys to each home.
Each family is under the direction of
a man and his wife, particularly Sc
lected for the place.
The cost of keeping boys in small
families is considerable, but it is ca
silly overbalanced by the greater good
that can be done. AS in Chicago, the
classes are kept at the same standard
as the city schools. In addition they
have manual training, horticulture,
laundry work, and military training.
The boys have built wagon boxes, hot
beds, root cellars, and fumes, and as
sisted in putting in the telephone and
fire alarm system. They have 400
chickens and 200 ducks. They have
raised all the vegetables used at the
institution in a year except one sack
of onions.
The equipment in the horticultural
department consisted of three horses,
harness, wagons, and the necessary
tools for farm and garden. The veg
etable garden is planted on the plat
plan, each plat measuring 25x63 feet,
each boy having one of these divi-
sions as his own garden. Each gar
den is hoed and weeded by the boy
assigned to it and the system of irri-
cation is so arranged that each boy
can handle the water on his own plat.
Gig. ~. Beets, peas, beans, parsnips,
lettuce, radishes, onions, celery, cab
bage, and potatoes, are growing on
each plat. About acres have been
planted to corn, potatoes, squash,
pumpkins, tomatoes, cabbage, beans,
and the regular root crops Gig. p.
A fairly good-sized orchard has been
set out and many of the small fruits.
This farm life is Of unquestioned ben
eft to boys from the city streets.
They soon become healthy, vigorous
and bright-eyed under the outdoor

More in the line of school garden
ing is being done in the eastern part
of Washington than in the western.
Spokane especially has some excellent
work, though not as a recognized part
of the course Of study. The principal
of building, however, who recognizes
its value in the growth of the child
and in addition to her other duties
finds time to have the children plant
and cultivate garden will find her
efforts well commended by the super
intendent of schools By the use Of
water, marvellous lawns are grown in
Spokane in an incredibly short time.
Several very attractive clover lawns
that had been planted but six weeks
were noted around school buildings.
All the schools that have gardens use
the same area, so feet by 100 feet, and
these are generally similar in plant
the individual plat for the child and
an observation or educational section.
A large potato yield at the Audubon
School was to be sold for pictures for
the school, This school, following the
thought suggested by its name, has
made and placed bird boxes in every
available spot about the school-in the
windows, on poles in the yard, and in
nearby trees.
An excellent beginning has been
made in Spokane, and when it sees the
necessity of trained teacher to direct
the work it will hold a front rank in
the best form of school garden, the
one on the immediate school grounds,
for the board of education is most far
sighted in its purchase of grounds for
buildings. 1t never buys less than
block, 300 feet by 300 feet, and some
times more. 1t buys in advance of the
growth of population and has now
four sites waiting to be built upon.
With so much land buildings are prop
erly located, additions can be made as
needed, and plenty of space assigned
for gardens and Fairgrounds.
Schools that deserve especial men,
ton other than the Audubon are the
Columbus School, in a semi-rural sec
ton, and the Cooper School. The re-
markably green lawn of the former
school was in striking contrast to the
dried grasses of the prairie surround
ing it. Two hundred and forty chill
dren are represented in the Cooper
School garden.

then you will see that the rejuvena-
ton of spring is really success.
In sylvan woods, where wild flowers
grow;
On bright spring days, / love to go
Among the green verdure, to bask in
the sun,
And pluck wild flowers, one by one.
On grassy hill, love to lie;
And watch the birds, as they fly,
In search of food, that they love best
For their young ones in the nest.
On bank of creek, | love to sit
And in the water, my fingers dip;
Then watch the minnows scamper
away,
From the place in which they lay.
In tangled vale, | love to roam;
Farther and farther away from
home;
In the woodland far away;
Where all nature holds sway.
Out with nature, love to go;
Let my thoughts with nature grow
Spring days like the days of June,
l love with nature to commune.
