of Mrs King's worthy and success-!
ful work in the K i n d e r g a r t; e n
school. Between thirty and forty!
little children, fit their most plas
tic age-between four and nine-$
gather daily at the residence of Dr
Gwaltney, in Buncombe and there
are amused and instructed iu such
a way that it is all delightful lo
the little folk. They are the hap
piest looking children in all Edg
?eld, for their youthful energy and
enthusiasm is being giren a suit
able and sensible direction aud de
velopment. Their minds and bod
ies grow together, neither bei::g
allowed to outstrip the other.
Parents are learning that it is
not wise lo let children "run wild"
for six years and then suddenly
sheck their mad career, and lock
them up for live long and tedious
bours in the rigid discipline of a
schcol. The Kindergarten is a.
gradual and etpy process, jzhfch
