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

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
