PAQK SIX SCHOOL HOUSE IN ] CORNISH VILLAGE i r i; Writer Describes impressions o Made by the Fount of 1 Learning. F On the remote edge of Cornwell t ]ife goes very regularly by sea and t land; you can tell the day of the j e week by the funnels of the liners . Y that pass to and fro, making land-| s fall or departure and the time of r day by the outbreaks of chddish cries that mark the intervals of t scholastic labor. For the children s are by far the most numerous and t mobile part of the population; they 1 go to and fro outside my window i four times a day, like the tides at j 1 sea. Every morning the bell of the j i I.nltnnl l'iniro o C2 r*r?uf r?151 n it Tiiiu^i; lit f-y ? i%o vii\y |'v? v? i? j delivers his bundle, and 'while 1 am j reading in my paper of the day before about the mighty contest that is waging over the education bili in far distant London, the children are scraping and scuttling past on their way to school. So long a> \ou do not look out of the window) the thunders of Olympus sound in ; your ears; echoes of great speeches, of talk about clauses and closures, of tests and standards; you read of bishops marching and great indignation or enthusiasm so formidable; that it has to be conveyed by special j trains. Hut if you look out of the i \n indow the thunder ceases and in ! the morning sunshine little feet go: j-attering by on the road to the j house of knowledge. When the bell stops a sound of shrill voices raised in a hymn floats out on the scented air; and after that, if you walk past . the building wherein they are hived,! J you may hear now a confused buzzing or murmuring, on an insistent rhythmical chant which expert ears will identify in the multiplication table issuing from a score of infant thioats. Anon the buzzing ceases' the doors are opened, and the whole of the childish swarm issues from the building for a period of noise and commotion in the outer yard,' The bell rings again, and they are j gathered in; the buzzing and rhym- j ing begin anew; and so throughout i the day the bell signals the young ! generation to Filings down and ris- j % ing up, to the making of various j1 kinds of noises, and to the other , j harmless pursuits associated with i g the acquisition of elementary leain-Is ing. And when it is all over and the sun is sloping round to the oth- j cr side of the playground, the voi?- j <s rise again into the licensed up- j rear of a hymn, the street swarms ' \ again with children, and the school- j iraster, hanging up the key behind | c his own door, whistles to his dog for a walk. ', I y \ What transpires, within these ivied i j walls is to me a pleasant mystery, ' like the activities of bees in a hive j and 1 sometimes think that if the j walls of the school were made of ; glass and one ecu! I spy upon the | little creatures at their tasks, the j mystery would not be gicatly Irs- ^ sened. But it is certain at least | < that what they do there is not imp< rtant, and that the real busines ) of their day begins after the door is'] closed upon tre empty schoolhouso. < It is then that little Jane goes to i carry milk, and little Tom to earn i sixpence a week by weeding the laths in the rectory garden, and the j bigger Jane take up their household j vi/iiuiuMc?u)rrup ' With Cherry Flavor , for Kiddies9 Coughs, Colds, i Sore Throats.!
