fully used by the It. Louis. Mo. schools
according to n bulletin issued by the
I. =. Bureau Of Education.
Ii was the Exposition If 1901 that .ir>t
gave It. Louis the opportunity 10 extend
to itS schools the educational advantages
Of a great museum. After the fair had
closed a number of the exhibitors dona.-
cd parts If their displays ia the public
schools. and in this way the nucleus of
nm educational museum was obtained.
After the material for the museum
had been grouped. the question of using
il moSt profitably had 10 hc settled. A.
il was found impracticable To supply
every one ~ the hundred public schools
Of the city with a separate museum. il
was decided that there should he one
museum for all the schools and that hv
means of an autombilc truck the muse
um material should he sent To the vari-
Gus schools.
The museum IL arranged in close con
nection with the course Of Study follow
al in the schools. Among the groups of
exhibits are: Food products. material
for clothing. mounted animals. the life
and occupations Of different peoples Of
the world. charts and colored pictures
Illustrating history. minerals AMI ores.
and charts illustrating geography. aS
tronomy. and physiology" The museum
reports show that in point Of POPULARITY
the pictorial charts and the display Of
mounted birds comc first. Material for
clothing and the exhibit of food come
next in order of demand.
The travelling museum IF II. Louis has
1000 individual and duplicate collcc-
tion>. 1000 lantern slides: 5000 Stcrcnp
tie views: and 1000 colored charts and
photographs. The school authorities
make a point of the fact that there is
nothing in the travelling museum which
can not he used in direct connection
with the work Of the schools. II con

The main purpose of the museum H.
to bring facts home 10 the pupils n r..
practically as possible. Thus by means
of the cotton exhibit the children are
taken TO the cotton fields. where they
study the plant. the method Of preparing
the soil. the harvesting; To the cotton
gin. where the seed il separated from the

On July 10. Brownsville will once
more be called upon TO vote for or
against the adoption Of a commission

of our people are distinctly in favor Of
the commission form cannot be- doubted.
Yet for some undcfinablr reason. the
previous effort TO adopt the commission
has proven a failure. Those who were
chosen 10 draft a charter did not per
form the task that was submitted to
their charge, and the time within which
the work could done legally under
that election expired without anything
being accomplished. Now, however, wc
have another opportunity. The Herald
believes that the majority of the city
voters will east an affirmative vote on
July 10 next. III this be So. then it il ia
be hoped that the city fathers may ST.
