quito easy, howovor, children ofton go
ing to school because thoj aro mudo to
do so, while tho tcaohors. forming tho
pupils of this school, havo all como with
a purpose
Dr. MoNolll has charge of tho arith
metic, and has given many practical sug
gestions os to tho way it should bo
taught. Quito a feature is tho "rapid
arithmetic," and os a mental drill it
would seem to bo unsurpassed.
In grammar thoro has boon a gcnoral
review, ana?ynis and parsing hoing thor
oughly studied. Tho verb has received
a largo shnro of attention, and .Prof.
Hughes, who is in charge of this depart
ment, has intimated that Mark Taploy's
definition, "A vorb is a word that signi
fies to bo, to do or to suitor," would bo
appropriate.
Prof. Hughes also has ohargo of geog
raphy, and while tho work assigned has
boon intensely difficult to mastor, onco
mastered it is of incalculable value. His
method of map-drawing is acournto and
completo.
Unitod States History has becomo far
moro interesting with Dr. McNeill to
direct its study. Himsolf thoroughly
enthused with tho subject, ho imparts to
his pupils somo of his enthusiasm. Many
have remarked that did thoy havo tho
privilege of taking a course of study
under him thoy think thoy might acquire
some knowledgo of this sometimes neg
lected branch of study.
Drawing is presented in a simple and
attractive manner by Prof. Hughes.
Singing and calisthenic exercises aro
had at intervals to alford needed rest
and an occasional lesson in physiology is
given.
One of tho most enjoyable and valua
ble features of tho school, to those inter
ested in teaching, is tho lectures on sub
jects relating to teaching.'
During tho past few days Ibero have
been lectures on "Horace Mann" and
"Objects of a Recitation" by Dr. Mc
