I confexs that I way inclined to be persimirtic and to wonder to what is the age coming. Then I began to think of some of my little frionds, girls aud boys of eleven and twelve, Icould not imagine any one of them diveussing gossip or town talk, and came to the conelurion that the little lady who knew so much about such things was a monstrosity and notat all like the children we see playing in the parks of our beautiful city. I recalled an invitation I had received from one of there little friends—an invitation carefully written on double-raled paper in large, clear Spencerian hband—inviting me to examine the work done by the children m the public schools, I determined to take off my dark glasses, to observe with unprejudiced eyes the work of the children of this age. I was not red for the exhibition that awaited me. shown into the large hall of the Franklin school building,in which was arranged the work | of the pupils in the tiret grade to the fourth year of the High School. It was more;than in- teresting to observe the development from one grade toanothor. There is the work of chil- dren of five or six years, designs in tinted per, simple drawings from natural leaves. : the higher grades flowers are combined with leaves and arranged into designs gradually be- coming more elaborate. The drawings from the High School are exquisitely shaded or tinted in water colors, There are designs for wall paper, mirrore, cups and saucers, in fact, for everything that requires decorative art. 'Be- sides the drawing, the same graded work in elay modeling is exhibited. e work in manual treming,® compara- tively new branch of public schoc! instruction, was indeed an agreeable surprise. ‘The first lessons in this department are evidently given to teach the use of the various toole, but before long the boys learn not only to make the tools, but cabinets, delicate woodwork, Indian clubs, iron chains and even clectro motors, The girls have e fiue display of needlework. ‘There is neat darning, true, even buttonholes and dainty dresses made by girls of twelve and thirteen years, There is no danger that the childron of this age will suffer from ennui or die of juvenile melancholia so long they are made to feel that they have power in m- selves, power to be developed. All bouor to the public school and its mag- nificent system. The parents have their part to perform in this plan for the education of thelr hildren. They should show their interest and appreciation by attending this exhibition at the Franklin School. ‘To those who delight in tracing development the world’s fur offers @ broad field for studying the progress of nations, but ere we leave this city it would be well to observe the wonderful progress that has been made by our school children.

There was a good doul of activity in the line of congratulatory remarks, handshakes, leave- taking and smiles, but the commencement cere- monies were without formality and pomp. Groups of scholars bung around awaiting some fattering praises trom their teachers and instances of — disnppointment were few. All the teachers are brimful of vacation hopes and summer plans. No orthodox commencement exercises were held. Some song singing was indulged in by several of the schools, but were only of the usual character, The various classes were dismissed with some complimentary and ad- visory remarks by their teachers, the rall books were turned in to Suporvising Principal Free- mau, and Van Buren School and annex stood adjourned. in the afternoon Mr. Freeman made a brief address to the teachers, in which he commended their devotion to the youth of the village and their foyaity to their vocation. Miss C. G. Brewer, principal, responded on behalf of the teachers, It was a bright, felicitous little speech and evoked a volley of applause.
