What should we say of the man who refused to allow his folds to grow anything but weeds or to have his cond measure or his iron beds developed? We should say that he was denying the nation the use of its natural risbow and should deal with him as a publio enemy.

Whatever grace at beauty, originality or power there is latent in our children, whether they be in the palaca or the tenement, it must he rirealed and brought in the light, not primarily for the sake of the child but for the wake of the untions.
