With the aiinu.il opining of the schools
comes the cry for imro until. 11 irely do
cities make adequate provision lor increased
attendance. Various
expedients are re-
soried to in the
matter of temporary accom
modations , which are frequently more in
jurious than lielplul to pupils. Te.ichor.s.
too , are put under pivsiuro an 1 must make
a showing in results , rog.ir.lloas of a.lvora. * .
conditions , on p.nn of dismlsjal. The sys
tem of educational cramming and the desire
of parents lo show the mental qualities of
their children do not produce the best re
sults. On Hie contrary they tend to sacrl-
lice the phvsIcaSfor the mental development
of children. On this important fc.ituro of
school life tlie Philadelphia Times says :
"The caution most needed by ambitious
parents and enthusiastic teachers is not to
lot-trot that tlie health and development of
growing children require plenty of time for
play and exercuu in school days as well as in
vacation seasons. Study and recitations
there must be f6r the intellectual develop
ment nf the chilD nature and the accumula
tion of the knowledge that will bo required
in later years. Hut no svstcm of education
is sound In theory or wise in practice that
tloos not recoi-'iii/.o the importance of sym
metrical bodily , development. This cannot
bo secured if too many hours are devoted to
cramming the memory with facts to be
mechanically recited in the conllncmeiil of
the school room.
"The natural atmosphere of Iho growing
child is one of ijlay and vigorous physical
activity. To one who is in hearty sympathy
with the buoyant n.iluro uf children it is
lathetic to witness the groups of little ones
' tilling on the dour steps of our city homes
'n the pleasant autumn evenings crammmc
their nienivries with lessons to IHJ retitcd mi
the morrow Instead of giVing expression to
their natural instincts in
a good old-fash
ioned ronin. In too many cases the over
crammed children cai'ry their lessons to ben
with them to disturb their dreams , and it is
no uncommon thing lo overhear llie pupils
con mil' . ' their books or repeating their lessons
In the street.cars while on their way to
scboo : in the morning.
Rccognillon has been given of this ten
dency to overdo the conllnemont of children
in study by the public school authorities of
this city in the practice recently inaugurated
of holding bill ono school session per day for
Iho llrst half nionlh or month of the fall
term , thus making tlio transformation from
summer play to school conllncment gradual
instead of sudden. The period of smglo ses
sions might be extended withoul harm to
the intellectual development of the pupils.
In Ibis direction , too , a clear gain might be
made by a curriculum composed of fewer
studies. L-ixiiy in this direction is hardly
likely to go lee far. Hardly a day passes
that some human wreck is not borne to hos
pital or grave as the result of too much
school conllnemont in childhood. If the
world Isn't growing wise enough lo rccotrni/o
and correct this evil , it is lime some of our
adull educators were educated over again.
