A child can be given any quantity of information, he can be made to get his lessons, he can even be crowded through a series of exam- inations, but that is not edzzcafifzg him. Unless his interest in the subject has been awakened, the process has been a failure. Once get him floorozzgbly irzieresfrfl and be can edzzcafe himself, along fha! line, at Ieusf. Hence the value of toys, they are not only promoters of play, but they appeal to the sympathies and give exercise to the emotions, in this Way a hold is gotten upon the child, by interesting him ,before more intellectual training can make much impression.

fll' A Lonq Pldq Dau Children when they're little Play the whole day through With stones and leaves and berries too. Little sticks and twigs they whittle For their pinwheels and their kites. Balls they roll and tops they spin Dolls they trundle out and in! Now swinging high to see the sights, They count the roses on the wall. Now coming swiftly down the slide They just escape a serious fall. Then on the wagon for a ride! Clay and sand and great big blocks Keep them busy by the clocks. In China, India, Timbucktoo, Children play the whole day through From one to six they know the way To make of life a long play day. EDNA DEAN BAKER 1 l
