and was originated and introduced
by Froebel, a German philosopher
and educational reformer. He
opened the first kindergarten in
1887 for children from three to.
seven years of age. kindergarten
means children's garden,-a gar
den where children are given
proper care and nurture.
The kindergarten consists of a
system Of plays, games, gifts, oc-
cupations, morning talks and stor-
les made up from Nature, adapted
to draw out and encourage the
children to spontaneous investi-
cation and creative activity, and
in that way guiding them to edu-
cate themselves in Natures laws.
The kindergarten system though
fairly we'll received at one time,
became unpopular about the time
of Froebel's death, 1852; but a
few years later, the great merit of
the system becoming better known
it spread rapidly over the most in
telligent countries of the world.
Since 1872 it has been spreading
rapidly through the United States,
and is now a part of the school sys-
TEN of the large cities of this
country.
The only disadvantage of our
modern kindergartens is that they
are conducted in heated rooms
very often in overheated rooms
and over-crowded rooms. All the
children handle the same balls
blocks, clay, sand and other
equipment that are used in then
plays,-they romp with each othe'
and often play their games upor
the floor of the schoolroom.
Such conditions mean physlca
degeneration anemia, loss of ap
petite. loss of vitality, chorea, ner
vousness and then absorption o.
the germs of disease, resulting II
colds, acute diseases of various
forms, and finally some active form
of tuberculosis.

schools have been found to be 81

they are twelve years of age; that
tuberculosis when fully developed
is usually incurable; that open-air
treatment in sanitariums, camps,
etc, reinforced by good food and
proper sanitary measures has
cured many cases; that the death
rate for twenty years In the state
of New Jersey and in the United
States, has remained about nine
or ten per cent; that the only
method to reach the masses and
the children when they are amen
able to treatment, is through the
primary department of all schools;
that open-window schools have
not given universal satisfaction,
and hence can not be accepted IN
this plan; that open-air schools
have given good results wherever
established, and have resulted in
more cures than any other method
of treating this great White
Plague; and whereas most all
children begin to attend school at
five years of age-sometimes
younger and sometimes older;
and whereas at five years OF age
fifty per cent, and at seven and a
half years of age seventy-five per
cent of all children are tubercu-
lar: therefore it is absolutely nee
esSary to begin to begin preventive
measures when the children enter
school.
That is, we must begin with the
kindergarten or first primary
grade, and have open-air kinder
gartens instead of indoor kinder
gartens, and open-air first ane
second primaries, instead OF IN
door first and second primaries.
Fortunately the kindergarten
method of teaching is exceedingly
elastic, and can readily be trans
formed into open-air methods. II
realitv the kindergarten devised
BY Froebel included open-ail
methods, as gardening, care of an
lmaIS, birds, fish and other pets
ard nlaving games, and dancing
and singing in the omen air.
The kindergarten, like the open
air school, is of German origin

we'll, subjected to open-air treat
ment, or really sanitarium treat
ment in the schools?
Would you not in most all cases
get a sound mind in a sound body.
All pupils, who have been in the
kindergarten two years should be
subjected to a strict medical eX-
animation, to determine their ply
sical condition; and if they are
found below normal they should
be left in the open-air kindergar-
ten for another year, or if their
mental progress warrants it,
should be put into an advanced
open-air class.
We claim that this method of
education will prevent tuberculo-
sis, if pursued faithfully for a
generation; that it will save mil
lions of dollars annually by saving
valuable lives; and will save every
state large sums of money by re-
moving the necessity for building
equipping, and maintaining, sani-
tariums for these unfortunate vic
tins.
1t will also result in preventing
great deal of suffering and un.
happiness.

AFTER THE WAR is OVER
Trade Spite Fences Not Likely to
Last Long.

Charles f. Hauss, president of the
American chamber of commerce at
Milan, sees in war conditions an OPP
portunity for the United States to
acquire coke and iron business in
Italy. That country has been getting
its coke and pig iron from Germany,
Austria and Belgium, all of which
has, of course, now been stopped. If
the present feeling can be depended
upon, Mr.. Hauss says, Italy will prob
ably never purchase from Germany
again or only after long time.
But experience has shown that war
feeling cannot be depended upon. IL
cannot be depended upon in military
alliances, to say nothing of business
intercourse. The allies of today may
be the enemies of the next war, Be
sides there is no sentiment in bust
ness. The manufacturers of one
country are not going to allow their
competitors to get the best of them
in the world market because of per
sonal or national sentiment. If they
can obtain materials from their late
foes at better advantage than else
where they will do So
However rabid may be the national
antipathies at the moment with the
restoration of peace and the soften
ing lapse of time, perhaps, too, new
alignments and new policies, trade
will resume its normal course. There
will be no commercial spite fences in
Europe as memorials of this war

dependent, to permit the thought of
