Educational News Of Special Interest
To Teachers In Hawai'S Schools
By Vauqhan MacCaughey College Of Hawaii

, nation, judgment, thinking and initia-
tive carry over to the first grade and
the child has increased power 10 take
up the work in reading, spelling and
numbers. He already has learned to
concentrate and keep at his work un-
til he has mastered it. His power to
attack new problems has been deyel-
Oped and he makes rapid progress. He
presents more alert, ready and re-
sponsiye attitude toward the new re-
Quirements Of the first grade than the
! child who has not had previous train.
ing. His vocabulary is increased By
his work in oral expression, dramatiza-
ton. and storytelling. The foreign
child needs this. preparation especially.
The educational value of toys can
not be overestimated. The tearing
down of the constructive toy is fol
lowed by building up a recreation OF
the toy. The process of destruction
and construction leads the child to
understand man-made things in the
world about him.
The best toys are made Of wood cut
in simple design and put together with
bolts. Three questions should be
asked before toy is given to the
child:
!. What is it made Of?
2. What will the child do with it?
,, What will it do for the child?
The toys should be strong and dur.
able. The thing to be guarded
against in securing constructive toyx
is fragility. Toys bring children TO,
getnar ii a group and help them to
initiate the social life about them.
Such toys as Little Red Riding
Hood, The Three Bears, The Three
Goats GTuff, The Three Little Pigs,
place before the child a clear image
of the story he is telling causing
him to forget his selfconsciousness
and in no way hindering his magma
ton. They help him to picture more
clearly in his mind the stories and
to reproduce them in words and play
more intelligently. These toys are
used for self-expression. An audience
is not needed. The child is constantly
experimenting.
|, The work reflects the activities OF
the outside world in imagination
through toy and story. The creative
power developed in the kindergarten
is the foundation for constructive
imagination, a quality so rare When
formal work is emphasized.

MAUI BOOSTER
DINNER PROVES
GREAT SUCCESS
Especial str.Bullstin Correspondence


WAILUKU, Maui, Aug. 22.-Nearly
$50 sat down at the chamber of COM
mer booster dinner at the Maui hotel
Tuesday evening. 1t was one of the
largest as we'll as one of the most
successful gatherings ever held under
the chambers auspices. 1t was nota-
BILE from the fact that for the frs
time ladies were included.
The other noteworthy feature was
that the dinner was entirely home
produced-Maui produced-from the
papaia cocktail to the small blacks
from the Honolua ranch. Landlord
Field and the chamber committee con-
sisting of D. H. Case, W. o. Aiken,
and ]. J. Walsh, were many times
complimented on the excellence of the
menu.
The celebrated Booster Club of
year ago was again much in evidence
under the leadership of Harry Wash
burn Baldwin. The members were in
uniforms consisting of white shirts
and duck trousers.
President r. A. Wadsworth Of the
chamber and leading booster, acted
as POSTMASTER. The principal ad-
dresses were made by Raymond c.
Brown, secretary of the Honolulu
Chamber of Commerce, who was pres.
ent to boost for the coming civic con
vention; and by Emil A. Berndt,
chairman of the promotion committee,
who with his wife and in company
with Mr.. and Mrs Worth Aiken had
just returned from a weeks trip
through the crater and around Maui
by the ditch trail. Mr.. Berndt urged
that the road to Hama be pushed
through as being one of the greatest
needs on Maui today from a tourist
standpoint.
Other speakers we're ]. A. NJ. John
son of Honolulu, W. o. Aiken, D. H.
Case, Mrs Will J. Cooper, E. R. Rev.
ms, w. F. Crockett, Jr, and Will J.
Cooper.
The boosters interspersed the var
ious addresses with some cleverly
improvised songs and yells which kept
things moving at a lively clip and
furnished plenty of fun. Mrs D. H.
Case was the author of one of the
cleverest Of the song hits of the even
ing.
At 10 o'clock the banqueters ad,
journed to the lobby of the hotel, only
to reassemble 10 minutes later when
the big dining room had been cleared
for dancing.

OUR DEMOCRACY, OUR COL
EGES AND WAR

The dean Of women OF the Wash
fnKton State College, in a recent not
able address before an educational
assembly. made the following very
interesting statement concerning the
colleges OF the United States and the
war, II Is OF interest at this time IN
Hawaii, when many OF our young peo-
pie are returning to colleges DOM
here and upon the mainland.
President Wilson has said We are
in the war to make the world sa1e
for democracy. This is true and 1t
is we'll. but the fact remains that
paramount duty ConfrOnts US, that
OF keeping democracy safe for the
world This Is where the work OF
the colleges comes in. II democracy
of a kind which should persist and
be extended in the world is to exist
during and after this great world
spasm, then il will be because the
fires OF idealism have not been al
lowed to be Quenched by blood or
money bags.
The spiritual affairs OF social, eco
nomic, intellectual progress must
have their fires kept alight, and edu.
cation must sec to IT that no torch OF
idealfsm, of vision for the people,
shall be thrust for reminding into
spent ashes.
The efforts made by colleges both
fof their men and for their women
at the first great shock Of call, were
naturally in the direction OF the OBJ
vious, cooking and knitting for the
women, drilling and enlistihg for the
men. This was necessary and well,
but not enough. The great contribu'
ton of the college is yet to be made,
Il is not Of leaders in bloodShed nor
yet as martyrs for the salvage OF
human wrecks, but as staunch resis-+
tiers of the subtle inroads of sordfd
and materialistic thinking, as guar
dams of the social and industrial gains
Of years, sayiors of the soul of the
people through clear vision,
The colleges OF the nation are Gus
todians of democracy in a peculiar
sense Of this wartime. Admintstra-
fions and students must recognize
this, must give democracy such IN
terpretation as shall guarantee tnat
democracy shall be safe for the world.
Other institutions there are whose OPP
portunity It is to steady dizzy world,
but colleges are unique in their ad-
vantage and in their responsibility.

COLLEGE OF HAWAII COURSE IN
AGRICULTURE,

The College of Hawaii has recently
issued the following statement con-
corning its course in agriculture:
The course in agriculture is de-
signed to give the student an intimate
knowledge of the fundamental prin-
ciples which underlie agriculture as a
science and profession, and thus to
equip him for effective service either
in practical farming, agricultural edu-
cation, or research work. Agricultural
science comprehends a wide range Of
subjects, and includes something
from nearly every department of hui.
man learning. The natural sciences
OF geology, chemistry, physics, botany,
zoology, bacteriology, and physiology
are directed and intimately related to
it. Not in the sciences alone should
the agricultural student be broadly
educated, but also in mathematics,
languages, history, and economies.
In outlining this course the object
sought is first to teach the general
laws governing the relationship of
growing crops and living animals to
soil, climate, and surroundings. The
method is by lecture, supplemented
by laboratory investigations and field
experiments. This study of the fun
damentals will be required of all
students who intend to specialize in
any advanced line of agricultural
work.
Following this fundamental work
the special applications and modifica.
tions appertaining to particular crops
and problems are studied. Electives
are offered IN the junior and senior
years to allow the student to make
his course more, general, or to special.

A KINDERGARTEN IN EVERY ELE'
MENTARY SCHOOL

Hawaii is behind the times in heI
kindergarten system, which depends
upon private charity, and is not an
integral part of the public school sys
tenn. Every public school system on
the mainland and in other countries
which considers itself complete, be-
gins with the kindergarten and con
tinues in an unbroken series through
TO the college and university. An
able statement was recently made py
4 prominent Denver school principal,
which bears directly upon the condi
ton of affairs in Hawaii:
"a new conception Of method has
changed the spirit Of the elementary
school. On the old basis little was
asked OF the child. The teacher did
the work and the child was passive.
According to- the new order the child
makes his contribution of self-activ-
ity and effort before the teacher can
furnish Interpretation and guidance.
The kindergarten demonstrates that
activity based upon the stage OF the
, child's development forms the basis
Df education. ~
Such method calls for more than
Systematic insight. The teacher seeks
10 secure from the children original
expression upon which she may exer-
else the function Of guidance for the
purpose of leading them through to
Ahigher levels Of insight and power.
Froebel has said that the plays Of
childhood are the germinal leaves Of
All later life. Let us learn from chill
dren. Give heed to the gentle admoni-
ton OF their life, to the silent de-
mands Of their minds, then viii the
life OF our children bring us peace and
Joy. Then shall we begin to grow
