NATURE STUDY FOR
LITTLE CHILDREN

When Froebel was looking for a
name suitable for his system of edu
cation, he did not call it Child
School," or Child House." but
"Child Garden" and he intended
that the gardener" of the kinder
garten should be the teacher herself.
Nearly half of Froebel's Mother
Plays deal with the things of nature.
At one time he said, "A little child
that freely seeks flowers and cher
ishes and cares for them in order to
wind them into a bouquet for parents
or teachers cannot be a bad child, or
become a bad man. Such a child can
easily be led to the love, and to a
knowledge of his Father-God-who
give him such gifts"
Love of nature is the heritage Of
childhood. 1t is tendency in every
child of every land, be he black,
white or yellow.
All nature is akin to childhood;
birds, animals, flowers, insects are
all beautiful to children, even the
lovely Gravity caterpillar" and the
sleepy snail"
We all know how a dog will allow
a child to stumble over him. recog-
nizing the action by only an express
sion of long-suffering indifference; he
will stand all kinds of teasing which
he would not tolerate from an adult.
There seems to be a silent but mu-
tual understanding among young ami
mails of all kinds whether they have
four legs or two.
AS primitive man opened the early
scenes of his life among the wonders
of nature, so the child needs the ex-
perience of the race in nature won
der and play All natural phenomena
are matters of personal interest to
the young child, and towards the
moon, stars, sun, wind and rain he
feels the inherent interest of the
race.
1t is well to be able to tell the
children the names of the plants and
flowers they bring, and to awaken in
them longing to know more of the
wonderful life of the bird, bee and
other insects.
Children love the stories of animal
and plant life; they love nature be
cause they are a part Of it, 1t is
good thing for children to collec'
specimens; how they revel in thu
woods no matter what season it may
be! What can be more joyous thar
to gather acorns, nuts and berries il
the autumn woods? Will not thu
children be interested to know tina
acorns grow only on oak trees, ant
that they are the seeds of the Oal
as well as food for squirrels?

Getting Correct Numbers Difficult.
Barre Timesl


+. G.. Currier of Richmond. who was
in town yesterday to register his car,
stated that the car which ran into his
horse which young girl was riding was
never located. The number secured did
not prove to be the correct car, it is
said The girl was thrown from the
horse and the horse was injured The
car went on without stopping.-Item
in Montpelier Argus.
The above gives proof that the iden-
tification of automobiles by their num-
bers and the subsequent identification
of the drivers are matters of consider
able difficulty, especially under the
stress of excitement attending a COLI
sion There is great possibility of mis-
take; and officers seeking to locate per-
petrators of wrong need to take eogni-
zance of that possibility. A person be-
coming the victim of collision with a
motor vehicle is not usually prepared to
fix correctly in his mind the number OF
the machine being driven away, al
though some persons may be able to do
so. Therefore. identifications by report
of persons a@grieved, or even by per-
sons who were eye-witnesses of the ae4
cident, are not TO be considered as def
mite and conclusive. They may, how
ever. furnish some evidence on which to

What church -goer does not enjoy a
little variation from the regular service
once in a while? Two mice decided to
attend church in Newport, VT, last Sun

forced the pastor to pause in his sermon

rescued the women and children first
and then completely routed the invaders.
