Some people call every kind of artificial al culture. Now, are not exercises in Nothing can be said to be true physical culture which does not rec- ognize theoretically and practically this principle, that the body is the servant of the soul, and, therefore, if one would know the proper of the body and how it should be educated she must know the pur- poses of the soul. Physical culture leads to the study of morals; to the study of man as a spiritual being: to the study of the possibilities ofthe soul; and the prover study of the sul leads to this conclusion, that the chief end of every one in this world is to influence others by precept and by example toward higher states of being. A study of physical culture which does not recognize the high mission of man to man and the high relation of man to God is not a proper system of physical culture.” At the conclusion of Miss King’s paper she was called upon for a recitation. She responded, giving in capital style Ella Wheeler Wilcox’s poem, “You never can tell.” exerc Character Building. “Character Building versws Education” was the theme of a thoughtful: paper by Mrs. Ellen Richardson of Massachusetts. The address paid tributes of respect to Dr. J. R. Buchanon, to Dr. C. Wesley Emer- son of Boston, to Dr. Wm. T. Harris, Unit- ed States commissioner of. education; to Mrs. Phebe Hearst for her philanthropic work for Kindergartens, to the manual training schools and other persons and forces, all of which, it s claimed, were bringing about the dawn of an education, wherein soul development would replace the systems which had tended almost exclusive- ly toward intellectual development and mere faculty growth, in piace of the build- ing of character in the divine mission of service. z Education for the purpose of originality of thought, thought bold, clear, grand and beneficent, was shown to be the primary step. The secondary step must have clear- ly before the mind the end of education, the mission of character in the world,which was stated to be service for the good of the whole. Kindergarten, the science of an- thropology and manual training were placed before the audience as necessary elemen- tary steps in character development. The pcint of anxiety in the progress of the new education was shown to be when the pupil leaves the kindergarten at the age of about seven, presumably to enter higher grades, which are, however, of a lower plane, because then reality is taken out of education, and signs are substituted. Character, which has begun to unfoid so successfully in the kindergarten, loses here the real sentiment of feeling and becomes the intelleectual manipulator of signs only, which may or may not inspire thought; more often they do not. ‘The mission of the educator was shown to be, to awaken the soul to a knowledge and use of its own powers, that it should attain to the highest success of life’s uses in_the world. The responsibility of motherhood and educators was placed equally upon each, and the commonwealth wf the. United States, because fts Constitution assumes the charge of the education of its people. Reference was made to the solemn trust accepted by the executive board of the United Stetes government from George culture | [train a child i Washington 100 years ago next Janua' which provided a bequest with the earnest wish that an education should he pro- vided for building characters, which as statesmen. woul] preserve the spirit of the Constitution of the United States. On the whole, the speaker looked hone- fully to the future prospects of education, citing the fact that the greatest thinkers in Germany, in France, in England a in America are turning their attention i great seriousness toward tion. The German thought was affirmed to be the thought of the advance light, becau: made the greatest progress tow veloping the powers of the mind, ‘of toward real birth of man to th soul powers a r Right education w that which knowledge of his ation to infinitude proclaimed to | leads a man from his lower de sires, his meaner sensibilities’ to nis hi sensibilit purposes, to which elev p facultics into an o: growth of manhood; that which takes the youth from the farm, the shop, the studio, and returns him a better “and stronger farmer, mechanic and artist: Education toward practical ends with di- vine impulses, s6 that busine: come moral and the world pette high ideal set forth in charac in cducation. Training for Mothers. al paper of {he morning was read Sallie A. Cotton of Falkland, N. er buil The by M fi C., on “A Natiot Training: School for Women.” In her address Mrs. Cotton said in te ‘Scientific motherhood means more than @ casual thought can grasp. It means a grander, nobler race, an altruistic human- ity, which shall fit the earth for the Sa- vior’s advent. It means the reformation of the drunkard, th redemption of the criminal, the repentance of the murderer, the abolition of asylums for the blind, dumb and insane. It means the elimination of selfishness, the death of oppression, the birth of brotherly lov uplifting of mankind through true spiritual Ciristian- ity, and the control of hereditary weak- n of mind and of body, all by pre-natal influences. hy blessed results will not come in a day, nor a year—perhaps not fully in a century—but the sooner the first effort is made toward it th ner will its full ac- complishment be reached. Ot vr Wendell Holmes said truly that the time to begin to one hundred years before it is born, and now is not too soon to t gin to conquer the evils which fill che earth. “It is evident that woman's most imper- ative dut nment under which she lives fs upply a population com- posed of the highest types of men and wo- men, and it is equally evident that a scien- tific motherhood is necessary to the proper performance of this duty. But all duty is Miss Julia T. King. reciprocal, and it is the duty of the gov- ernment, which seeks the welfare of its people, to offer to its women an opportu- nity for the attainment of this scientific motherhood, which will be fraught with so much good to the nation. , “The message of a natign’s greatness is the elevation of its women, and any in- crease of national greatness, is dependent upon the mothers of the nation. Nowhere on earth does woman hold a,more honored position than in the United States, and it is hoped that this governmgnt will lead the world in offering to its women the op- portunity for acquiring: the,ggientific train- ing necessary to the performance of the high duties of woman's sphere. “Scientific motherhood wii gain no mark- cd impetus while restricted to a fortunate few. It must be made a national possi- dility in order to become a national benefit. Like all our national bleg&ings, it should be “by the people, for the people,” and it is athe duty of the government to give wo- ortuni te ‘hi = tifle knowledge.” “cane this scien “It can be done through’ the establishing by the government of a ‘national training school for women, where the women of the nation shall be trained in thé sciences of domesticity and peace, just as at West Point and Annapolis the men are trained in the science of war. “In this school woman should be taught the highest domestic science in all its di- versities. “She should be taught applied chemistry, because the nutrition of the nation is her charge. “She should be taught architecture, be- cause she makes the ‘honies, and should know what architectural’ conditions are most conducive to health and comfort. ‘She should be taught sanitation, disin- fection and the prevention and care of dis- ease, because it is to her arms all the na- tion returns In sickness and death, and she should be familiar with the foes of health and know how to combat them. “She should be taught the care of in- fants and their foods, for upon her knowl- edge and care the sons of men are depend= ent for strength in manhood to make the nation great. | “She should be’ taught the application of science to all departments of household labor, with a view to lightening that labor, in order to give more time to scientific thought and study. “She should be taught the mysteries and possibilities of heredity, and impressed with her duty to improve and develop her race, for the benefit of mankind, and for the government which provides such oppor- tunities for woman. “There will be no need to teach patriot- ism in such a school. Patriotism, already spontaneous in woman's heart, —will in- crease an hundred-fold when she is recog- nized by her country. ‘This national training school should re- ceive its quota of pupils from each state, just as do the other national schools, and its curriculum should embrace a higher course of study than is pursued at the industrial colleges of the various states. These state institutions form the first step by which woman may ascend to a more perfect womanhood, and this national train- ing school will be the second step in that ascent. One will develop her practically the other will develop her scientifically The first will give her skillful hands t cbey practical minds, and the second will give her deeper scientific knowledge, and teach her how to use it for good. “The boys of the nation, the India negro, have all received portunities; the arts and aces ha been promoted, but woman and her natural colleague, domestic science, have becn parentiy forgotten. The schools at W Point and Annapolis for the training of boys of the nation; the schools for training of the Indian and the negro; schools for the advancement of agricult and mechanic arts, are all proper and u: ful—but are they all ficie; “The elevation of domes! proper place among, the other s to dispel the pov: y disease, which are the alts of , and which in so many homes rob weman’s heart ef happiness and life of its brightness hrift will poverty, but ‘thrift is born of knowl and traiain; z ery encourage y, and d on the © of woman despit doctor's learning all the Mrs. Henry A.
