MOTHERS' CLUB
HOLDS MEETING.
Mr.'. 'utlnjrnd au exoelUut pHper,
which waa m followi:
A fisit to tha Llnoolo school in
Ssuts Bart-sro. Calif., three yeare ego
revested condition nearly wbst
toey ought not to be as it is possible
to hud io any publio acbool in this
cnuutry rough, wwd-grown ground
riilauidnted buildings, dirty ami dis
ligurel furniture, (mub of It lefose,
bauiened from the other buildings cf
the city). very high word of tardi
ness and a i-iy low average of attend
imoe; dimirili-r, rowdyism, and vio
iousnefs. and an almost entire luck of
anything that might be culled a
wholesome and proper school spirit.
The reputation of the school
bad; its tradition were wholly
wrong; It was looked upon by the
board with disfavor and treated aa a
necessary evil Two things, however,
the sehor.l did possess: plenty of
children and a few good teachers.
Unfortunate experiments lu trying
to "tlx things up" at the Lincoln
school made the getting of money
from the board tor improvement piel
ty nearly an impossibility. Ihey did,
however, as a sort of a joke, give tbe
superintendent an old tumble down
building oocupylng a pirt of r eed
patch that served tor play uruund.oo
condition tbat be should get it
moved away without expense to tha
district. The discovery of some good
buildiug mat ril u its walls resulted,
after vigorous ellorts mi the superin
tendent's pHit. in the si!e of the old
wreck for $75, and upon the rxpcndi
tmo of this sum depended tls phyul
cmI transformation Hud rejuvenation
of the sobool
Previom ttfo-ts at flower growing
aud tree plunting bad resulted eveiy
time In the tbett or destruction of
every plant put out. Ibis time, bow
ever, a canvass of tbe eutiie ward
wns made and the co-operation of tbs
parents secured iu tbe effort to ool
lect proper plants and tiees. 1 be en
thusiasm of tbe rupils was worked un
to the point of clearing tbe yard and
getting It ready for lawos and shrub
bery. A professional gardner living
neaiby olunteered to supervise ths
plauting, and a committee ct parents
petitioned the superintendent to
make it tbe "palm school" and set
out only palm trees. Ho great was
tbe interest aroused that uearly thirty
varieties of palms were given and
some forty others bought by subscrlp-tlon-and
all this among laboring
people. A tine, large lawu waa put io
with climbing vines and loses, and
all kinds ot (lowers. Then the school
board took hold of the movement,
tha rdav around was graded aud the
buildinu MDBlred and repaiuted. To
dav it Is one ot tbe most beautiful
and well ketit olaoos iu tbe city.
All this helped soma In decreasing
tardiness and lessening absence, but
It waa soon seen to be only tbe begin
nlno of thinss needed. Uround was
enured and a Sue garden planted.
Vacant lots nearby were reuted, fixed
up 8 ml planted with potatoes, squash
and pumpkins, and the prooeeds real
Ized from the sale ot tbe-.e crops were
used to en uln a workshop In tbe base
roent. The old-ityle, worn-out desks
were banished irom two ot the Urge
school rooms and replaced by chain
and tables at less cost to the board
thin new desks would have been.
One ot these rooms was turned into a
workroom for the girls, corresponding
to the shop for the boys- and the
other room was made workroom for
both the smaller boys and girls.
Muob of the old formal order of tbe
school room disappeared ; the ohlld
ren helned eaoh other, tbey work to
gelber at hand work and tbey study
and ieoite together. From tbe Urst
trade to the eighth, this idea ot work
lug together Is carried out and yet
there is no weakeulug of control on
the tencber's part nor lessening of
real "good order" on tbe part ot tbe
pucila. One group ot children will
be found gathered about a "rug
frame." trauHforming with busy An
gers a piece of old burlap and some
diwoardod olotblng Into a servloeame
rug; another group is tying a quilt;
another building a book cane; and
Htlll another constructing a punt foi
surf boating. And dining much of
tbls time, while tbelr bauds are busy,
they are talking over or reciting their
lessons, most of which are based upon
tbe things tbey are working with. At
work with cotton goods tbey have a
real, liviug interest In cotton and
they g' t its geography and history
aud nature study beoause they have a
real reason tor wanting to know It.
Arithmetic and language grow out ot
tha work in tha same way, and with a
like living Interest.
Tbe courses of training Hint tbls
school Is glvlug ate as varied as tba
home needs of the locality and tba
different mental tendencies and phy
sical requirements of tbe children.
For example, there Is a course io
meudins mending anytbiug that
belongs in or about the home, whether
of paper, or cloth, or wood, or leath
er, or Iron, or tin, or crookery.
Eveiythlug about tbe sohool is thus
repuiied, and many things are
brought from home.
Aud this is the way of it: A brok
en thing is placed before two or mare
children aud they are asked to work
out a good plan fot mending it.
Wbeu they have doue this, they re
port to the teaober aud after some
discussion a plnu is adoptbd and car
ried through to snocess, wbetbei on
the Hist triul or on tbe third. And 1
am auite persuaded tbat the aduca
tiooal value of a problem like that Is
euual to any that may be found in
books. The ingenuity tbat some ot
them display iu this meuding is quite
remarkable, and tbe training tbat tbey
set makes not only for power but for
oul.ure as well, aud for utility. These
children nave mended and reoon
etructed more tbun a hundred chairs
and dosks aud other article of aobool
furniture, tbev have rebound mora
limn two hundred school books and
thev have constructed many cup
boards and bookcases and shelves aud
other things of use for tbs varinui
rooms. Before anyone can start upon
tbe construction ot any new thing be
must draw a working diagram of tbe
thing, and figure out just bow much
stnfl it will take and what It will cost.
There Hie courses in sewlug and quilt
iug and rug making and basketry aud
housekeeping, simple housekeeping;
and a course lu selecting and buying
the simple things needed for tbe
home, i'hey have "shoe judging oou
tests' and cloth judging contest
Had fruit judging and vegetable judg
Ina a- their gardou and "patched
coiue to maturity.
One of tbe most acceptable feature
ot this work ia it eoonomy. Of
course almost anything can be done
in an educational way where plenty
of moiey is forthcoming. Hut in this
school all of tbe various kinds ot
work are based upon tbe principle
tbat there must be little or no expen
diture. For the ibop work, refuse
lumber from 'he mill and dlsoardep
dry goods boxes have served for al
most tbe entire supply. For tba girls'

tbey must discover some platl that

tbey searched the hills and the

Hbre that has proven almost equal to
the purchased ratlia. 'lhee material!

themselves, and weave Into wante pa
per baskets, hand bags and all sorts at
decorative articles.
On investigation by 8 veral of the
teachers, it was found tbat nearly half
ot all the girl in tbat eibool ot about
three hundred were tbe only house
keeper their home bad, many ot
them, too, under ten years ot age.
This Investigation also revealed home
conditions that were pitiful la many
oases and unsatisfactory in most in
stances. To remedy this, one of the
rooms of the school building is pat
tltioued oft by Bcreens into a kitchen
a ItvUig room and a bedroom and
there these girls, big and little, ure
tauuht bow to keep bouBO, to cook
and to buy tbe simplest aud cheapest
foods; bow to "tidy up" a room and
make bud; and bow to sweep und
clean; and bow to decorate iu o plain
and tasteful way.
At tbe close of tbe term, the child
ren ot this Lincoln School ot Home
ludustry had a "day at homo" which
lasted for three days, aud "a tuir,
at which the products ot tboir hunds
were offeied for sale. Hundreds of
nnoola from ail classes visited the
children at their work aud the tiet re
ceipts f ir tbe tail exceeded a hundred
dollar. From all parts ot tbe city are
ooming requests that something like
tbe same plan be followed in tbe other
schools ot Bauta llarbara.
And the results have certainly been
little ahoit ot wonderful, ih whole
spirit of tba sobool bag beeu trans
formed aud tbe entire neigbboibood
uplitted. And lb, too, it must De
remembered, under a hard condi
tions, neibape. as any city In this
country is required to meet.
None of tbe teacners nan any spec
ial training tor tbls kind ot work.
The plan had to be wrought Dy exper
iment. Tbe attendance average naa
leaped from Ho" per cent to almost 97
per cent, tardiness ia at a miuiruum,
the spirit cf tba school is right aud
the geueral deportment as good as lu
any school I have ever visited. For-
marlv more thau 70 per cent of all the
pupils dropped out bfore getting
through the seventh grade. Now 85
per cent stay in until tbe eighth grade
is readied. 1 was particularly iniei-
ested iu going over tbe results of the
eaular December examinations given
bv ibe county board oi eauoauon to
the sixth, seventh and eighth grades
of all tbe schools of tne county, una
to mv iuteusa surptise 1 found the
papers written by tbe pupils of that
school as blub as any lu tbe county,
in spite ot ail the time given to tbe
Industrial work, and belter by far
than this school had ever before pio
duced. Ibis Is a cjuvluoing avldunoe
ot elllolency.
Mrs. i'reiberread the following line
paper, wbiob was selected from Amer
ican Motherhood:
Do you know her, that other moth
er of your little sons and daughters:
Those little beings wbu until six
years, or possibly kindergarten age
have known but little other thau your
thoughtful oare aud intlueuue, now go
somewhere at 9 o'clock every morning
snd sualu at one in the afternoon to
sDeud five or six hours ot each school
dav lu Immediate ooutuot with some
personality other than your own.
Have you taken tbe trouble to be
come really acquainted with that per
sonality, and its probable influence
upou your child? You know the
children go to learn numbers, to write
and observe, to cultivate ineotai, aud
to some extent physical powers, but
they learn more than this.
Vou take fir grunted that they are
well taken oare nt, trusting to thj
good judgment of superintendent and
school board to place over these little
ueonle. people who are capable and
worthv ot trust. Vet schuul boards
and uperinteg)denta are not Infallible,
and sometimes are iu pUces if such
responsibility through other agenciis
than natural fitness fur tbe position.

Tbis expresses the general impression

with it e have bieu content, ceasing
to interest ours ilve:i further, or to in
quire it we do uot owe to those same
teachers the le-pnu.iiliiiiiy oi oo-oper-atiou.
M'lcli W blog said today of
the co-operation otparonts and teach
ers, it has Deeu tne consummation
devoutly to be wished aud toiled for
by many edunutcrs tor ye-.ir. tcduy,
through the ngeucy nl rn ;thi'rs' or
ganizutlons ami imnheiV ti.ee! legs,
which are iiuppnv growing rn num
bers r.s the world steadily progresses
to better tilings, this opportunity for
helping our children U rwogulzed
und dwelt upon. I'M rr operation
has existed u exjuplion.il canes lu
the past, but nnwjou-n with our awak
ening uloug thute linen .f thought,
how tunny mothers can be found who
visit a schoolroom unless it bo upnu
some special occbhIou?
Some ono bus said: "Ibe mother
must aconiuj any her obi 1 1 uot only
to but through the schoolroom door
Hho tnutit understand thit aims or tbe
teaober, the principles ot mental end
moral unfolan.eijt. Hho nioit know
tbe reasons for pursuing certain meth
od -i, for certain permissions, for cer
tain prohibition!?. Aud he must
know tbat tlii. vital knowledge onn
not be gleaned 1 y occriKioual verbal
messages seut or reooird thiough the
child, or by occasional iucursious into
the intellectual Held, or sporadic vis
its to the sohoolroom. is he must have
real knowledge ot tbo educative
value of cuirloula, of tbo taxiug pow
er of mental effort, of diet demanded
in sedentary life, of tbe intention of
surroundings In tbe growth ot charac
ter, tbe place and tower or social
ooutaot In the development of the
life, and an intimate knowledge ot
tbe foioes at work, the temptations
presented and the manner in which
tbey are to be overcome. Such know
ledge com oh, not by instinct, but by
intelligent aud educated insight.
Iruly tbe responsibility of mother
hood is great indeed, aud iuoteuses
as tbe complexities of modern life
multicly. And those iu wboru exists
the conscientious desire to attain iu
soma degree the ideal iu motherhood,
dare not carelessly disregard those
opportunities. Those upou whom the
responsibility of motherhood has rest
ed but lighHy, seem to diop its slight
hold wbeu the child starts to school,
turning it entirely over to the teach
er even in tl-nt which peitalns to
moral us well as mental wcll-belug.
When uot In school, the streets and
sidewalks contribute their shaie to
the traiuing of such children. In
sohool the teacher becomes, uot tbe
second mother, but the real mother
indeed, and upon her fulls the burden
ot arousing and developing tbe belter
traits
Many children, far more than we
like to think, are allowed to reach
the age of six without having learned
that ueoassaiy lesson ot lire, tbe les
sou of okedieuoe; obedience tbst
rests upon perfect trust, and at a time
when it Is so easily acquired.
A prominent educator iu dhcussing
the tendency of pteaeut-diiy parents to
full in exacting obedience, says this is
manifestiug itself in our couutry iu a
lack of reverence lor law Motbeis
who would be indignant to know that
any one thought them unkind, cruelly
allow seedi ot selfishness, discontent
and disobedience to grow ; and tbey
do grow like bad weeds, aud must
eveutually bring sorrow and suffering
iu after years iiow nobly have tbe
thousands of conscientious teachers
taken up tbe task ot weeding rut
these undesirable traits and instillii g
iu the child nobler and battel idtals!
When we think ot all the teacher has
done iu the part, aud her willingness
to do eveu more in the future, does
it uot seem as it parents should bum
their lull share? those v. ho bare a
vision of better things hould seek to
arouse feeliugs of respcusibility lu the
heedless, the thoughtless nud the self
satisfied; the lnlter being pcrhnps
the most riifllcult to deal with, foi
eelt-satisfaction though a solace to the
possessor, has ever retarced progress,
g An excellent feature ot one large
mothers' ogauizutlon is tbe eflort to
establish intelligent and helpful co
operation of parents end teaohers by
menus of i outhly meetings held iu
each grade, where mothers can tu Ik
freely with the teaohei.
I he mother is in a position to kuow
much tbat the teacbei does not know
about aud the te,icler lias nn opt or
tunity to tpeak iu a geueral way ul
mutters, which, it tpoken of individ
ually, would perhaps ci.use offense.
Occasional evening meetings, which
tbe fathers us well as mothers, teach
