VACATION SCHOOLS IN FAVOR
Midsummer Education and Play Supplies a
"Long Felt Want."
VERTICAL HANDWRITING ON THE WANE

Ildtlf ntloniil .No ten.
Vacation schools, Inaugurated as a private
venture a. few years ago, have become
public Institutions In several cities nnd ap
pear to fulfill a genuine "long felt want "
In New York City accommodations were
provided for 6,000 pupils and 20,000 boys and
girls applied for admission. tloston, l'hlln
delphla and Chicago report tho supply of
puplll eager to enter schools far In oxroas
of the schools provided. I.nst year these
cities started vacation schools as an experi
ment. The results obtained nnd the In
creased demand Indicate they v. Ill become a
fixture, for which provision musi bo made
on a more liberal scale.
The syMom in vogue In Chicago differs
radically from the regular school routine.
Everything Is play and only In Its results
can tho efforts of tho tarher be seen. "It
Is like going to a big playroom," cays the
turonicie. "wbore fifty children are turned
looite with nothing but their entertainment
In view. And yet tho children In these
playrooms learn to cook, to sew. to model
clay, to make furniture and to do n thou
sand and one useful things. The readlnc.
writing and arithmetic are asides, which.
nevertheless, nro primary studies In the
scnoois and nluays considered carefully.
i nn tjov who makes a bench must be able
to figure Its dimensions nnd to make the
drawings for (he work. In the same way
tho girl who makes a loaf of bread must bo
ablo to write the recipe for the loaf and to
rend tho cook book from which It Is taken.
Tho children say It Is Just like piny, and yet,
wnen considered In Its true light. It In very
much like work. The fact that the ehil.
drcn cannot tcengnlze the work In It makes
its recreation Just ns bcneliclal ns piny with
out an object.
'To bo sure, (ho many objects for which
the vacation school Is created and adorned
differ hs widely as the peoplo to whom It Is
of Interest, in the first place. In the Chi
cago vacation schools there arc the philan
thropists who havo established tho schools
as a refuge for little children from (he In
fluences of the streets. In the second
place, there nre tho mothers and fathers of
the children, who have accepted tho help of
mo scnooi as ft solution to tho problem of
where to put the children during the work
ing hours of the day. In the third place,
thero are the children themselves, who have
entered Joyfully Into the spirit of the thing
because of the exreptlon.il opportunities to
play It has offered."
Vertical HniidM rltliiK.
The vertical stylo of penmanship, a fad
Introduced in various public schools In (he
past few years, Is rapidly losing public
favor. The school boards of New York
City and Chicago have abolished It and
rcMored an Improved style of nlant writ
ing. The chief reason for adontlne the
vertical system was hygienic. It was
claimed that under (ho old system pupils
assumed awkward and unhealthful positions
In writing, that curvature of the spine, Im
pairment of the vision and other physical
Ills resulted from these habits, The vertical
system permitted those who pructlced It to
assume a natural position, but It was slower
than tho other. Now, however. It Is claimed
that a system of sant ,wrtlng has been
evolved which permits health, speed and
legibility to be combined.
Tho new system of handwriting, approved
by the school board of New York City, may
bo described ns a compromise In which is
sought to bo retained the good points of both.
Tho old writing had a slant of 3S degrees
from the vertical and S2 degrees from tho
horizontal. Its letters Avero all narrow and
high, three spaces being allowed for tho
highest letters and tho same below tho lino
for the sub-line letters. The vortical writing
introduced about four yeats ago had aa
characteristics besides Its absence of slant
tho broad and moderately high lotters.
The new style will retain tho broad letters
and moderate height of tho vertical style,
but will bo started from 20 to 25 degrees
from the vertical,

Prof. Schoenrlcb of Baltimore, In a sug
gestive paper read before tho National German-American
Teachers' association, ro
cently In session In Philadelphia, said:
"A grave danger threatening the public
school systems of our country Is tho ten
dency of making thorn top-henvy. Only
too frequently tho main energy Is directed
to tho development of the high schools; by
their results the schools systems of the
different cities are frequently Judged and
consequently tho schelulo of tho lower
schools points up to tho high schools and
not out Into actual life."
Tnktng the above quotation for a text,
the Philadelphia Ledger comments editori
ally as follows: "Tho great, original pur
poso of tho common school system was to
glvo pupils a well grounded, practical edu
cation, and to this end thorough Instruc
tion should bo given In the lower grades
In the fundamental branches, upon which
foundation tho student may build such an
educational t'uperstructuro as his special
needs, Inclination and environment may re
quire. Tho destiny of an overwhelming ma
jority of publlo school pupils throughout
tho country Is not the university, the col
lege, nor even tho High school, which Is
tho capstone of tbo common school system.
In tho last report of the United States
commissioner of education th.3 attendance
In tho various olonientary school grades
and In the high schools of twenty-four
typical American cities is exhibited to Il
lustrate how rapidly attendance falls off In
tho higher grades, nnd how small a propor
tion passes through the high schools. Kin
dergartens, ninth grammar grades and nor
mal BChooU aro omitted. In tho first year's
work of thtso twenty-four cities 211,070
pupils wore enrolled. In the eighth year's
work tho number had dwindled lo 33,913.
Tbo total enrolled in eight elementary
grudos was 874,773, and In the high schools
only 47,251. Tho commissioner says that
tho steady decreaso In tho actual number
Is relatively so small that mortality may be
eliminated In considering tho causes of the
falling off In school attendance. Philadel
phia Is one of the twenty-four typical cities
mentioned In the commlacloncr's report.
Tho total number of pupils enrolled In all
the schools on tho date, December 31, 1S07,
was 143,381. Of these 139,000 were enrolled
In kindergarten and elementary schools, and
4,342 were cre,dltrl to high schools. Tor
Chicago the figures weiJ: Elementary
schools, 182,165; high schools, 7,547
"The relatively small number of pupils
able to attend high schools gives force and
significance to Prof. Schoenrlch's criticism
that the public school system of the country
li 'top-heavy,' and tho thp curriculum of
tho lower schools 'points up lo the high
schools and not to actual life.' Common
experience, as well as tho quoted school
statistics, shows that the great mass of pub
lic school children enter upon tho practical
business of making a living, graduate Into
'actual life,' without higher training than
that received in the lower schools. To over
load tho curriculum of these schools with
fads which trench upon the time, the very
precious time, which should be devoted to
thorough drill In the fundamental branches
ot knowledge Is to deprive the vabt majority
of the school population of their rights. It
Is evident (hat there Is god ground f
Prof Schoenrlch's criticism that the mal
energies of the school systems of the cnun
try aro too often directed to the develop
ment of the high schools at tho cost r
diminished opportunities fcr the very many
thousands of boys and girls who. for out
reason or another, cannot grasp high school
privileges. The tenetlency to crowd th
curriculum with too many studies, the man
Ifrat lack of school accommodations for
pupils In the lower grades In the grea
cities, accompanied by the most elaborate
provisions for tho high schools, are dlrec
lions in Vhlch tho professor's remarks are
very applicable. In striving to bring tbt
higher education within reach of all there Is
danger that tho foundation teaching may
be neglected."
Textile Cdiieallon In c llnnlnnd
The New Hodford Textile school Is the
outcoiie largely of the development of the
cotton manufacturing Interests In the south
as well as of the Kuropean example and en
terprlse In textile education, says a writer In
the Review of Reviews. The far-seelns
manufacturers of New Knglatid foresco the
tlmft when the manufacture of the cheaper
and coarser goods must from economic ad
vantages be pre-empted by the siuth, and
have seized tho opportunity to take an ad
vance step. The whole trend of the textile
Industry In New Kngland today lo towaid
tho production of liner nnd more artistic ina
terlal, fcr which Is required skillful nnd
Intelligent workmanship of the highest
grade, such as special textile training In
a well equipped Institution may be ex
pcetod to provide.
Though competition with the south In
cotton manufacture li a comparatively new
feature 111 the textile Industry, It Is not
feared, but rather hailed, by the wise manu
facturer for lUi bearing on national pros
pcrlty. The advance of the south In this
direction Involves a broadening of tho
whole Industry, an expansion of foreign
commerce nnd n growth In our exports of
manufactured good. It Is a fact that only
one-third of tho raw cotton now produced
remains In the country: the other two-
thirds go lo Orcat Britain and other Euro
pean countries, (o he rnenufacdired and by
them exported In various directions. With
southern mills for conifer products and
northern mills for finer grades the United
States may be extceted to take Its plsyo
bcBldo the larger exporting countries of
tho world.

Tho eollego man," sayp Prof. Hugo Mun-
sterberg In the Atlantic, "who specializes In
political economy or philosophy or chem
istry from his freshman year kriws, In his
special field, far more than any ono of us
knew, but If we take a composite picture of
all seniors tho boy who leaves the gym
nasium Is not nt a disadvantage In the
comparison of Intellectual physiognomy,
while he Is, of course, far lesa matme ac
cording to his much lower age. If any
man in Dartmouth or Amherst takes his
bachelor's degree with that knowledge In
mathematics, history, geography, litera
ture. Latin, Creek, French, or physics
which wo had on lenvlng school he Is nuro
to grnduate with honors. Our going to tho
university can thus be compared merely
with tho entrance Into the post-graduate
courses. Our three highest gymnasium
classes alone correspond to the college,
nnd whoever comparew tho German uni
versity with tho eollego Instead of the grad
uate school Is misled cither by the age of
the students or toy the external forms of
student life nnd Instruction.
1 know It would bo wrong to explain our
being three years ahead of n New England
boy merely from the scholarly preparation
of our teachers. A second factor, which Is
hnrdly less Importnnt, stnnds clear before
my mind, too; tho help which the school
found In our homes. 1 do not mean that wo
were helned In our work, but he teachers
wcro silently hcipod by the spirit which pre
vailed In our homes with regard to tho
school work. The school had the right of
way; our parcnto re-enforced our belief In
tho work and our respect for tho teachers;
a reprimand In school was a shadow on
our home life; a word of praise In the
school was a ray of sunBhlno for the house
hold. The excellent school books, the wlso
piano for tho upbuilding of the ten years'
course, tho hygienic care, the external
stimulations, have all, of course, helped
toward the results; and yet I am convinced
that tl.elr effect was entirely secondary
compared with those two features, tho
scholarly enthusiasm of our teachers and
the renpect for the school on the part of our
parents."

steamer, the State of Nebraska, will ex-

leased. The trouble, however, will not be
from Olnsgow, because I very much doubt
thnt Intendln:: nossenccrs to America will
go from there, hut will go elsewhere to em
bark. These people will take ro.ltes to
other ports and silo over without our
knowledge. If (he disease should spread

this fact before they nro permitted to sail.

SCHOOL HISTORIES IN SOUTH

None Thnt Are I npiilrlolle
nml Prejudiced.
ATIANTA. (la.. Aits. 31-Concerning the
nctlon of the Grand Army of tho Hcpnbllc
at Chicago Wednesday in condemning
school books alleged to be used in south
ern schools as calculated to perpetuate
prejudice against the fedoral government
General John II. Gordon, commnnder-lu-chlcf
of tho confedcrato votcruns, said
today:
It Is dlfllclllt for mo (o believe th.it anv
southern teacher Is knowingly using niij
ijook nun ih inienueii in perpetuate sec
tional nrellldlee In the inlnil.u of xmitliom
children.
More than twenty years ago. with the
hearty approval of General It. 1J. I.ee and 1
bellovo with the sanction of our whole peo
ple. 1 lnnde earnest and persistent effoiti
to have banished from the schools of the
south mid the north all wectlonal school
books nnd books which had any taint of
bitterness ngnlnst either section.
Kvery movement made by the Culled
Confederate Veterans nnd everv recom
mendation made by our historical commit
tee has been to rind nml s.ixtnln only such
books as nave the truth of history without
tho slightest tinge of passion or prejudice,
against either the north or the south. I do
not hesitate to sny In the broadest and
most emphatic terms that such Is the spirit
of an overwhelming majority of the south
ern people.
Any orrnri. however, to have honks used
In schools, north or south, which would
lower the self-resneel of the ehitriren of
either section or their Icglttnmte iirlde In
the motives which prompted tho soldiers of
either army or In their fathers' achieve
ments had Just ns well bo abandoned, flueh
nr. effort will never succeed. It ought not
to succeed necausc ll would he dlrectlv de
structive of tho future manhood of ojr
country.
