The child Is a little dramatist end a little philosopher.

The child looks at a plant and pives It a thought and feeling. This Is the mythical stage. He comes Into school and the aim of the teacher is to broaden the mental, spiritual and moral horizon of the pupil. The more this is done the better la the teacher. The child does not study psychology but llfe.Tt Is letter that this should be so.

The thing to teach is the fixed X. knowledge. These murtb ht as they are the toy ccurv Eve- Jjiffiyhas Its technique. lr fTin accurate knowledge of t. ITols he has the keys which can all mysteries of the past.

Historians munt have a knowledge of events but also of the motives which brought the events about. The child has his longings, his soul strivings. The educational value of the story is great. Take for Instance the story of Barbara Frietehle In which the loyal spirit of Maryland Is typified. The Btory of Washington's hatchet Is also a myth typifying his truthfulness.

Mitchell was the man who had pole In the lower board.
