The school should keep in summer time, when now there is vaca.
and all the wild out of doors should be- filled with The laughter Of

Some day we will get over the notion that the way TO educate
children Is Ia coop them mp in stuny rooms, plunge their noses into
books and burden them with the knowledge Of things for which when
grow up they will have no mortal use.

nay, even have no friends among the stars and look upon the flowers
of the woods and mcadows, which have a grace and tender beauty
that no Dollhouse products can rival, as weeds aud vulgar neeligihlcsl
