Teaching elementary school subjects . rawing of the finerarchitecture of brain and cord paths that can be really in-telligible only to a trained biologist, and means nothing to achild save a curious puzzle of Hues. A frog with the brainpithed will explain more about reflex actions and the relation-ship of cord and centre than innumerable drawings withoutsome concrete verification. The pupil whose time is takento study the brain or eye has a right to study them in theonly way that ever yields educational returns—^he has theright to study these as real things, and not as shadowy sym-bols in words. AVhen for any reason the actual things them-selves may not be had, it would be better in many cases toomit such assignments altogether and proceed to other workwith more substantial returns. The pupil interested in hiscamera, will be equally or more interested in its counterpartin the eye. To handle the crystalline lens of a beefs eye, See Doctor Rettgers book on Elements of Physiology and Sanitation,A. S. Barnes & Co.— Vital efficiency through physical education is emphasized in all Philippme schools
