SCHOOL STUDIES.

ONCE It was generally believed by many Delawareans
W and others that certain studies were specially adapt
ed to train the memory the reason and the other facu
ties OF those who took them and that the training re
celved in any such study would spread Its good ef-
fects over everything
That was the theory OF formal dlscplne and on the
strength OF pupils urged to study vigorously
precise subjects like mathematics and Latin even when
was conceded that these not likely TO be used
very much directly in everyday life
Nowadays psychologists do not believe that separate
mental faculties" exist, and many experiments have
shown that the transfer Of the effects Of tanng from
one field another very much less than everyone used
to suppose
And so the object OF weldirected school work today
is not so much TO cultivate strengthen minds and
faculties as to teach the things that It is worth while to
know to satisfy natural curiosity TO give larger points
OF view and broader sympahes, in short to enrich me
life OF the pupil and help him 10 adapt himself to the
world Of things and people in which he will have to live
This Is simpler and more human and the change of
object gives denined place I'm the school to things
like music and dancing which overcome social awkward
ness and add to the Joy OF living to domestic science
and manual training which give skin and courage tc
face the material world; TO nature study and the soca
sciences, with all their human interest.

SLOW AND EASIER
Depression on Wall Street
Discouraging to Investors.
Money Rates Firm.
BY I. A. FLEMIN G.

While the local market never gives
response in the slightest to the big
bull markets Of Wall street. continued
weakness and depression there VIII
always have its depressing effect
, here. There is a very restricted in
vestment movement here at this time
and stock pressing for sale is likely
to meet with lower bids.
The local stock exchange, in com
! mon with the New York. Chicago,
| Boston and Philadelphia exchanges,
will enjoy a holiday tomorrow, no
| further sessions being scheduled until
the American fleet to New York har-
Dor is the occasion, while the brokers
were not adverse to double day of
rest.
Business on today's session of the
local market was confined to four
stocks-Capital Traction at S7A, Lam
ston at S0H. Washington Gas at 45
and Railway preferred at ASH.
Changes were more or less unimpor-
tant.
Foreign Exchange.
The pound sterling was quoted at
| S3S61:. French francs We're firmer at
.O665. while marks were steady at
.81S and lire unchanged at .04o3.
The pound is about at the low price
| of yesterday afternoon. Gold ship
ment is likely to be announced Sat
urday.
Commercial Paper, Per Cent.
One cannot find fault with bankers
for sending their funds to New York
for use on the call market at to 10
per cent when the per cent legal
restriction is still in force here. Com
mercial paper is in excellent supply
at per cent, while the demand is
only fair, with the western banks buyers
and interior institutions also in the
market. Time money is very hard
to get.
Some grades of paper sells at more
than Z per cent.
Charles II. Sabin president of the
Guaranty Trust Company Of New York

ent rates. and that there Is not much
chance for a reduction where so mpch
capital is needed in speeding produc-

May Day Possibilities.
Wall street was worried today over
May day possibilities, some expres-
sions Of opinion being that unexpected
Developments would arise here and
abroad. but generally it is not believ-
ed that tomorrow will produce any
thing sensational.
