CAPE MAY'S SUMMER SCHOOL ITS HISTORY AND PR06RESS Meaning of Most Important Institution Erer Brought to Cape May A great deal has been published from i time to time in the Star and Wave re- j carding the Cape May Summer School ! of Agriculture, Induatrial Art and I Science, bat it in doubtful if our peo- f pie, even those who are actively de- j •irous I of assisting and pushing along j every enterprise likely to benefit Oape ! May. koow what is being accomplished i by this school and what it means to j Cape May. VISIT THE SCHOOL The quickest and easiest way to learn will be to visit the school which is in session at the High School Build- 1 ing and see what is being done. The dean, Proi. T. D. Sensor, will give any inf- rmalion desired and have visitors shown the school and its work. THE HISTORY The history of the organization of .the school is briefly this. Early in the spring of 1907, Prof. Sensor condfeived the 1 idea of establishing a summer school for the purpose of preparing teachers to teach in the public schools, the elements of agriculture, various forma of induatrial work and home economics. The incentive was the necessity which has been recognized I for si veral yean1, by well-informed educators and thoushtful men of all classes, of making tra ring in agricul | ture and industrial art a constituent | part of the daily work of pupils in the ! pu'ilic schools. THOUGHT OF MILLVILLE FIRST; His first thought was to establish it J at Milivil r, which w. uld be a central ! point for several S >uth J rsey counties i but he did not receive adequate en j couragem.'nt or assistance and wa$ in- 1 riuced to present the matter to some j leading men here The value of such i a school win r congized by those to whom the mitter was presented end subscriptions aggregating about $1100 were obtained and the school ivhs established tfiu summer with a faculty of j tome of the most eminent t aches in ' I

their respective lines in the country. By means of the small tuition . fee charged and an fappropriaation of $200 by the city, the expenses were paid l that yar. LAW PASSED IN 1908 At the next session of the legislature • a law passed authorizing such a school and appropriating $300b for its main1 tenance. This appropriation 'did not become available, however, until November 1st, but |the IState Board authorized the opening of the school and I aboutllOO pupils were in attendance, | the expenses partially paid by contri1 butions and tuition fees and the bal- " j ance financed by Prof. Sensor snd ' friends of the school. 1) INCREASE IN PUPILS ' | This year there was an increase in ■ the number of pupils by about B0 per t cent, and tho aeasion has been the f most successful, all of those attendI ing expressing their appreciation of ' the instruction received and the various courses in the most emphatic terms. Scholastically it has been a great suc- ' cess from its foundation and our chief 1 interest is in the great work it is doing ' as a school. We prefer to keep out of ! such discussions 'everything '.but the ! ideal for which such an institution " stands. Only men of broad^expenence in school work can fully realize the great meaning of its work, bat we* will ! call attention briefly, to another mean5 ing it has to Cape^ilay. 1 iWHAT IT DOES FOR OAPE MAY r It has been estimated that the school I has caused an expenditure '.in this re- ■ sort in various ways of $10,000 during 9 its session here this summer. This is - interesting, is it not? Interesting - to business people, interesting to all ' j ho have the welfare of the resort at 1 heart. •j IT SHOULD BE ASSISTED | We advance the proposition that it ' should be seriated. For two years past 5 1 10.000 boosleU have been sent cut adI vertirirg the ichool and incidentally r | advertising Cape May. More elabor1 ! ate booklets advertising Cape May at | ' ! greater length and the school »s much I 8 ' as required, should be provided at the , ! expense of thc^Bosrd of Trade or ci'y I " or by private contribution. I J ' BUILDING REQUIRED □ A building should be provided,* also, . d and this affords a fine opportunity for t 0 some wealthy philanthropist to do a [ g:eat good and provide a monument to fj himself which would do him honor, n 1 The industrial Idea must be implanted

[incur public schools If tba various R localities and the nation at large are I to get full and practical benefit from I the free public school training which U is being supported bo lavishly through- j , oat the country. This school is the | ] beginning of a new epoch in school , matters by preparing teachers for the ( addition to the public school curriculum which is believed by the best informed school men to be imperative and inevitable. The erection here of such a broiling as oescribed would-lead to the establishment of an all the year in- | stitution of incalculable benefit to , this community and many 'others and generations yet unborn would bless the founder of such an institution. A great deal more could be aaid upon 'this important question, but it would require a much laige paper than the Star and Wave to tell the whole story. We have Baid enough to help thought on the subject. THE SUMMER SCHOOLS RECEPTION The reception of the faculty of the Cape May School of Agriculture, Industrial Art and Science to the students and friends of tbe school at Congress Hall was a very enjoyable affair, about 200 people participating. A dance in which many indulged closed the evening.

GOLF NOTES Tbe tournament on Wednesdaywas the all absorbing topic among golfers today, while the start of the men's singles has occupied the attention of the tennis players. The fact that several ladies have entered Wednesday's tournament, and that they are classy enough to make even good players go, adds interest to the occasion. The men usually scout the'idea of the possibility of defeat at the bends of a woman golfer but several recent occurrencesset them' guessing. In the first place'Miss ■ G. Davis has made a£43 which is dan9 gerous. Miss Richardson's 46 on her I first round raises unpleasant reflections i of what she might do if forced. Miss A. Davis was out today taking a practice round by herself. Miss M. Reed - was in consultation with Dougherty I and * he results of his instructions - added tocher present game will put her t in the front rank. Miss E. Bispham and Miss M. Starr - were out this morning studying tbe I mysteries of driving. R. W. Starr, Jr., played a practice • round belore the opening of the tennis - tournament, to prepare for the match I on Wednesday. Mrs. J. N. Mills took out a weekly ticket and played withJMr. Kills in". the t afternoon. ~)i' > r L. Smith and Miss jSmith played a e

9 match in the afternoon. J. W. Janney took out a day's card I f and showed W. M. Allen how the game ! 9 should be played. Osgood Welsh made his first appear- - ance on the course this year and played f a round with C. Brown. I C. O. Van Leer and S. Bispham f played a match in the afternoon. Af8 ter the match Mr. Bispham was giving 3 K. B. Sbephardja tew^points on how 8 easy it is to beat^G- H. Parr. The deed 8 is to be accomplished on Wednesday. 1 W. L. Allen was so ^successful in - showing W. W. Shaw how to get his name on the list of point holders for the cup that he is overrun with appli1 cants for tutoring. He had another - distinguished point holier out with him I this afternoon and otht rs are awaiting s their turn. i The list of point hdlders on the cup 1 is as follows : t W. L. Allen. 8 1-3 W. B. Mellor. 6 1-3 J. M. E Hildieth, 6 t F. W. Aiken, 6 t T. M. Allen. 51-3 I- A. L. Bunting, 5 y L. .1. McGrath, 5 L. II. Ay res. 3 ti E. II. Munis, 3 hi W. II. Hulings, 8 e S. D. Wright, Jr., 1 y C N.

IN TO COMMON SCHOOLS At the meeting of National Rdu- | rational Association in Denver. PrinciI pel Harvey, oK the Stout Institute at Menominee, WUmonrin, made a strong appeal for a wider Industrial education for both boys and girls in the public schools beginning with tbe early years. It Is A rather curioks phase of our progress in this respe^that in our kindergartens we have filamentary manual taining for children and also' in oar high schools, but (none in the gramschool where nine-tenths of tbe ( children conclude all the education tbey ever received in Bcbools. An exception ' should be made in Mat girls are taught Bewing and cooking to a slight degree. ( If manual training ia good for infants and "for children over fourteen i . why ia it not good for the years between? It is good. It is necessary. We are aimply indolent in the matter. Mr. Harvey aperies from knowledge. , Tbe Stout Institute is one of tbe most remarkable institutions in tbe country, ' not only for its present scope, but its - history. Senator Stout is a man of ' wealth and intelligence. About a dozen ' 1 years ago be became interested in tbe public schools to tbe extant that be ' offered to pay out of bis own pocket for ! some radical changes which' he thought necessary. As elsewhere, boys and ^ girls went to school in that little city under more or leee restraint and were always anxious to get out. It seemed , to Mr. Stout that if he could make the , 9 schools interesting it need not detract from tbeir efficeincy. In consequence ^ he introduced manual training, domes- ' tic science and the like, and pretty soon the saddest day in tbe life of a 5 boy or girl 'was when sickness oom- , ' pelled staying at home. • There is no earthly reason why we 1 should confine our education so largely f to absorbing what is printed in books. 1 They are a very essential part of edu1 cation, but not tbe whole. There were 8 educated children before ibe printing " press was invented. The clever Greeks r knew more about education in some 8 directions than do we— or, at least, 8 more than we practice. It seems certain that one of tbe coming changes in ^ our system of teaching children knowledge will be that books will be used 8 less and other forms more. Moving r pictures, practical lectures, work in | the shops and the sewing rooms, etc., r will not be mere appendanges of school B jo the large cities, but a part of the normal way of teaching. e Just to the extent that children are 8 interested in acquiring education they ^ profit by it. We have been using mental and physical bludgeons long enough. r -rPhiladelphia Inquirer,
