The child taken a keen Interest In the ehaafe of the seasons. He exults •like la the snow of January and the first flower of spring. Taking everything la its turn he finds (as the CresAor intended) all very good* Boch natural feelltgs and inter ests of the child convey a hint. They are an invaluable means of broadening his life and enriching his personality^ The wise teacher will cherish and cultivate them by all means. There la a two-fold reason for at tention to nature and nature-study in the school-room: first, to awakec* in the tlm minds of our children the poetkrsense, oftentimes dormant, but never, perhaps, even in the case of the dullest, "wholly lacking. • And. accord, by carefully planned nature lessons, though merely oral and comparatively de- fultory, we may sow the seeds which shall develop lator on in the boys or girl’s devotion to some scientific interest. I know l young Charlestonian who is today quite an authority on birds. His interest In this subject dates back to his not very far distaU school days when c teacher he loved used to talk to her pupils about birds, and encouragb them to notice the differ ent species that they saw around end their haibtts. It is a good practice to take a few minutes occasionally/o call the attention of the children to what Is going on f'bout them in tbart vast realm of Mother Nature where nothing is small or .Insignificant. To encourage them to watch for the ecrliest snowdrop or L-ercissus in February, to go abroad for Jessa mines and crab-apple blossoms to make their school room sweet and becutiful; to note the first sound of the whippoorwill in spring. Snch things have a wonderfully refining and ennobling influence. They ex clude lower and baser pleasures. Th*y are in a high degree, educa tive. It has been found in some pr-rts of our State that children- take a great deal of Interest In a school garden; or If that is not practicr-ble in a window garden, or even in a few potted plants in the school room. Sometimes it has proven* a good plan to givo ouch child a plant for which ka la raopoadblo, which he may eoaaldcr his This, It will be easily seen, practical advantaces. apart from the mere esthetic value. But at all everts let us. fop the children's sake, have flowers iu our school rooms. The training of an Immor tal being is a many-sided teak. It is worth all we can do, the best we cat* do. % ^ Lodge, Feb. 17.—Specialf The Lodge High school music pupils re cently gave a fine musteeL Moat of the music pupils are beginner* but all did well.
