Occasionally an ill-natured remark-is
made concerning the trip of the president
but the greetings in the South show that
it is approved by something that is far
greater than a sympathetic partisanship.
The millions w ho are denied the pleasure
of visiting the capital rejoice at the op
portunity which ia afforded them of see
ing the head of the nation and give to
the journey the distinction of an im
pressive patriotic festival.
Personal character, personal emin
ence enter into such a:T.ir to a certain
extent, but in their deeper significance
the man is the symbol of his office, and!
no one understands this better thaq Mr.
McKinley himself or is quicker to recog
nise it. Thus in his si eech at Memphis
he said: "I do not misinterpret this
demonstration. I do not appropriate it,
but accept it in its true spirit, and recog
nize its true significance to our common
country. It is representative of that
universal good feeling happily subsisting
among the people of the United States
and which is not bounded by state, po
litical or geographical lines."
Immediately afterward the president
referred to the mighty, resistless power
for good which is inherent in a "united
nation of free men," and undoubtedly
his own presence inspired a fuller real!
zation of the onion among some of bis
hearers than they ever bad felt before
For the occasions are extremely rare in
which the depths of national conscious
ness are thoroughly stirred. W accept
our institutions aa a matter of course and
our security discourages emotionalism.
But the emotion is there nevertheless,
and when the chief representative of all
the states passes from one to another be
brings with him that exultant sense oi
unity and power which bursts the bonds
of a habitual reserve and proclaims the
nation above state and party.
If any feature were needed to empha
size the meaning of the demonstrations
in the South it is supplied by those
white-haired confederate veterans who
come bearing flowers while clad fn the
old uniforms of gray. At first thought
it may appear as though there were
something incongruous In the spectacle,
but it Is the best of pledges that loyalty
to the past has nothing in it of disloyal
ty to the present. Uniforms and flowers
preach eloquently today of the complete
disappearance of the sectionalism which
made for secepeion.
If, however, we should touch solely
upon the symbolic character of the re
ception we should be doing the Presi
dent an injustice. His genial nature,
kindly ways and democratic bearing, bis
readiness to sacrifice his own comfort to
prevent the disappointment of the peo
ple, his worthiness as a man in all the
relations of life have not been without
their tiTuct upon the cordiality of the

He promises to "revive" the merchant
marine by securing control of one of the
greatest English steamship companies,
thereby laying foundation for a world's
shipping trust. In pursuance of thi
plan ho has acquired contr d ot the ly
lnd Steamship Company of 1-ondon,
one of the greatest ocean transport com
panies ot the world.
The Iyland proeity, which was
recently appraised at Xl.(XX),000, ha
about sixty five vessel In its fleet.
The acquirement of control In one ot
the largest Atlantic transport fluel in
the world by the Morgans will ailed a
tonnage that is now estimated at over
300,000, and which is concerned lit the
American, Mexican and Went Indian
trades. It Is of far-reaching consequence
to the commercial and industrial supre
macy of the western world. It means
among other thing' the ultimate rapture
by American of the British and Uerman
oversea coal trade. It means an area ot
unprecedented activity in the coal min
ing Industry In this country. The min
er will b employed at good wages the
year round, and coal will not U dug to
lie on top the ground and lose its value
through long exposure to the elements.
Coal will be mined to supply the ever
Increasing foreign demand as well as the
domestic demand.
Another interesting feature of the Mor
gan deal w ill be its probable effect upon
the port of New York. The lylatid
Line, in fact, has already made a deal
with the Illinois Central Railroad for
additional ocean tonnage from New Or
leans. There is little doubt that the
time is not far distant when much of the
freight from the middle West that now
goe to the port of New York will leave
by way ot the port of New Orleans.

The question of reviving the American
merchant marine, which has occupied
the attention of our statesmen for seyer
al decades, Is about to be solved in a
very practical way and on a gigantic
scale by J. Pierpont Morgan of New
York.
Mr. Morgan Is going to solve it fn the
usual Morganeuque style. Being a man
of colossal deals, accustomed to handling
transactions that run into dizzy financial
heights, it goes without Baying that any
plans originating with Mr. Morgan for
"reviving" our merchant marine will be
a far-reaching importance to the mari-
eecures a divorce by removal to another time world.

Ilndi rgarten In the Home.
The article on the "Kindergarten in
the Home," wa read before the Moth
ers' Club in this city, by Miss Nefger
and found so helpful that they desire its
publication in order that mothers w ho
were unable to be present may also de
rive benefit therefrom.
In reading it before the mothers Min
Nefzger added many thoughts, incidents
and anecdotes a they came to her mind,
which made it especially interesting.
The next meeting of the Mother
Club will be at Mrs. E. F. fjtorv's. The
subject, "How Can Parents and Teach
ers Co-operate?" All mothers invited.
KI.MJKKOAKTg IS TIIK IIOMK.
Friends, I have ventured to come be
fore you today because I have a belief
that after all do one ia so closely in
touch with a mother's aims, hopes and
fears as a student of Froebel. My sub
jectasyou know is "The Kindergarten
in the Home," which means nothing
lees than an all-sided nurture of the
child's faculties during those all import
ant seven years of infancy. Were It
possible for us to learn all the songs,
games and exercises used for this pur
pose without understanding the under
lying principles, ve would still bo like
the mariner at sea without his compass.
So it will perhaps be worth our time to
take a backward look to see how this
original man came to discover this new
educational plan which harmonizes so
completely with the child's wishes and
needs.
It was Carlyle, was it not, who told us
that "only the wise man sees the won
derful in that which ia common," that
"if the son rose but once in ten years
we would all be on the hilltops with our
glasses"? So it was m this matter of
child training. For centuries men had
seen the mother playing with the child;
but who but Froehel bad ever found out
that this sympathetic play was essential
to the child's perfect development I For
centuries children have been permitted
to play, but who but Froebel saw the
immense educational possibilities of this
childish activity? True, Plato and
others had called attention to the value
and need ot guidance of this play spirit,
but who but Froebel has ever shown us
how to guide it, Right here we may auk,
how came Froebel to gain this deeper
insight? At the time Froebel decided
to make teaching hi life work ques
tioning spirit was abroad. Kousseau
had flung that educational firebrand, hi
"Kmile," Into the thought world of his
time, which far from being a reliable
guide, yet imrlormml the Important

tional rubbish of that day . Hut the star

Postaloui's heart was in the rU'ht
place, but method he had none, so it
came about ttiat FroeUd, after leaching
a bov'a school for twenty vests and
growing increasingly dissatisfied, turned
his attention wholly to the stilly of the
little child, tor experience a well a In

iVaUnly ha it, "That the true educa

acquaint him with the different mem
ber of hi body. With the eye of the
seer, rroeuul saw what had until then
escaped observation, namely that these

mother in her artless play awaketia hiui

love, but he also saw Instiiicl waa not

nothing itiort of insight would meet the
requirement. So after ball a reiilury of
the clow-id observation aud study of
chill life, he wrote thai famous book,
"Mother Play," which ha lightened the
labor and brightened the hie ot every j
mother and child happy enough to have '
come under it influence. To under

man be fostered. To illustrate : Mother
in suburb hoeing corn, child comes up
to her, "Oh mother, I'll help hoe the
corn," "No John, I'm afraid you will
cut it down." Mother says to neighbor
a few yera later, "I don't know what
alls John, he doesn't seem to care lor
his home at alt, and never seem con
tented while there." Contrast the fol
lowing with the above: Young Agaseig
to his mother, "Oh mother, I'm going to
catch all the fish in the sea and put them
In my pond." "Very well, my son,
shall you begin right now"
That great apontle of Froebel, Sunan
Ulow says, "We paralyze the spirit ot
investigation by Indifference toquestions,
clip the wings of immagination by not
responding to his paretic fancies, kill ar
tistic effort by scorning the crude re
sults, and Ireer-e sympathy by coldness
to appeal. Thus remaining an alien to
the child life and forcing tion the child
a life foreign to him, wo sow In weak
natures the seeds of idleness, In strong
ones insubordination."
Thai kery places two mothers In strik
ing contrast in "Vanity Fair," hut It Is
the loving and tho unloving mother who
are here contrasted, not the wise and
the foolish. No one can read of poor
Amelia's devotion and sacrifices without
a throb of sympathy. But that is not
the tvpe of the highest motherhood.
Amelia could not do otherwise than to
envelope this boy with love warm and
tender, but was she wise enough to look
ahead to see the need of fostering love
and service In him?
An earnest sttniy of the "Mother Play"
will give the mother such an insight into
child consciousness that she can at a
glance determine the educational value
of a given game, song or occupation

knowledges the truth hidden within
these two covers Is still lighting her
home with the tallow dip, still traveling
in an ox cart, still fighting with the
weapons of primeval times. Nor is she
aware of the fact that social conditions
have changed to such a degree that the
proper rearing of a child is more diffi
cult than eyer before.
But a superficial study will not help
ber for she is not likely to gain those
truths and be a leader of fashion at the
same time.
In closing, the student of Froebid
would leave with you these, Froebel'aj,
words: "Women think, and educate a
happy coming race, for you alone can do
it."
