I PIYS# C t*r respondent New Yirrh State I Orange I PROGRESSIVE EDUCATION. leport of the Committee of ths New York State Grange. We believe that the grange slur, HI l»e ton greater extent tiitm heretofore n fchool for the progressive education of Its members, n contitiuniioii of the means unit opportunities of the public schools. To this end \\ e recommend tlia't courses of study be arranged in such subjects its history and Uic nat ural sciences; that occasional lectures be given by persons of ability and note who may be available for the purpose, and that examinations be held on the subjects prescribed for study. We suggest that In the regular programmes of the lecturer there be an occasional review of a newly issued book. In certain favored localities it might be feasible to provide instruction in elo cution. expression aud general public speaking. The lecturer's hour would thus partake of character of drill aud Instruction in addition to the feature of entertainment. The grange might furthermore con tribute to the enlightenment of the community outside the gates by main taining a simple course of public lec tures and concerts, extending through the autumn and winter months, the fee for admittance not to exceed a nickel or a dime. In localities contig uous to colleges and seminaries such lecture courses might be supplied from the teaching faculties at trifling ex pense. even when including demonstra tions with scientific apparatus. Nearly all our rural communities are without organizations devoted to the improvement of musical talent. Singing schools which in their day were to some extent crude aud unsat isfactory nevertheless exerted an im portant Influence on at least a part of the people who participated in them Might not the grange become the in strument in many cases for attuuiiiK the people to the appreciation ami practice of good singing? The girls and boys who have been favored with competent instruction in lite colleges and conservatories of music would of ten be glad for an opportunity through the grange singing class to repay some part of the debt they owe to the com munity that lias nurtured theiu. In addition to the recommendations already made with reference to the teaching aud study of agriculture, the (trange could well undertake some prac tical work, like the maintenance of competitive gardening among tlie chil dren of the grange or of the public schools of the town or district, Includ ing an autumn exhibition of the fruits of the little gardens. The outlay for such an undertaking need not exceed the cost of 41 single oyster supper. ~| READERS |~ SUNSET MAGAZINE I beautifully illustrated, good *turie« £- -Q I and articles about California and ! all the Far West. • CAMERA CRAFT devoted each month to the ar fistic reproduction of the best SI.OO work of amateur and professional a y rar photographers.
