Recently there has been shown a new and more practical way by which the end sought is accomplished.

The work of colonizing is laid aside, for the most part, and the better work of indicating good localities for settlement is taken up. Reliance is now placed upon the individual rather than upon the organizer of colonies. There has been a noticeable migration of Northern and especially of Western farmers into the South. The knowledge that the South is an excellent truck and fruit-growing region, and that the railroad transportation facilities are favorable to prompt shipment of products to market, has spread abroad in the bleak regions, and quite a rush has begun, taken part in by men of experience in farming, who see attiaction in the South's fertile soil. in-law, J.

So much of the happiness and success of life depends upon the seeing capacity that it is both a wonder and a pity that more attention is not paid by parents in the home and by instructors in the schools to the perfecting of this gift. The trouble is that the great major ity of people regard the capacity oi the eyes as something fixed at birth, and not to be interfered with. If they would think a little they wou recognize that it is, after all, largel, a matter of excerclse and They know that the power of the muscles is capable of almost indefinit training, but they fail to apply th principle to the eyes. All forms excercise are called upon to increase and strengthen the muscular system of growing children, and the wisdom of this, always granting reasonable moderation, is never questioned, but the child with the weak, undeveloped visual faculty, with the untrained color sense, with the carrying capacity of the sight limited to a few feet, is called stupid, and his best hope is that he may be fitted with glasses before he is soolded into real stupidity. The sight can be educated and exercised just as truly as the hearing, the sense ot touch, or even the leg and arm muscles can; and the work, which can be easily converted into play, should be begun very early in ife.

Much so-called color-blindness is not a radical defect of vision at all, but a lack of training in attention and could have been avoided by any form of simple half-play, half-lesson, with colored balls or skeins of silk in early childhood. Matching colors is an excellent game lesson. It can be carried on with silks, woods, paper or any other material in which it is pos-to get many shades with very small Longworth.
