the age of bronze arms furniture jewelry ind gems have come down to us from distant ages to show their makers skill in carving while pottery in a hundred varied patterns and even bits of decorated plaster have served to prove the cunning of the earliest greek fingers with the brush not to forget those more homely arts of the loom and embroideryframe which homer loves to describe and for which the athenian women became so famous in the making of athens sacred peplos although some of these products of art are unfortunately lost to us forevor through the perishableness of their material and others are not nearly so well preserved among the ruins of ancient athens as they are at other places existing chiofly in tiny fragments that have lodges in the crevices ot rock there are enough evidences to show that these arts did exist in homeric athens and com pare quite favorably with those of aganonnons princely abode if it is not going too far to draw one more illustration from the better preserved monuments of the atreid capital we may restore a scene upon the athenian acropolis with details borrowed from the ruins and the lines of homer we must picture the lordly abode of the athenian princes as something far more than an aggregation of massive walls and colonnaded courts those walls severe and plain with out blazed within a revetment ot curiously wrought metal or brilliantly colored plaster the doors incased in beaten bronze swung upon hinges of the same ma terial the handles too were richly wrought in gold or silver the walls were massy brass the cornice high blue metals crowned in colors of the sky rich plates of gold the fading doors incase the pillars silver on a brazen base silver the lintels deep projecting oer and gold the ringlets that command the door if this famous description of the house of alcinous from homers odyssey were our only warrant for imagining this lavish use of beaten metal with enrichments in gold and silver many would doubtless be dis posed to say that the homeric pic ture was drawn from the realm of pure imagery although the very mention of these methods of decora tion and the poets minute description of the exquisitcness of the crafts manship with which they are applied are enough to prove beyond a doubt the existence of such modes of archi tectural adornment in their day but these elaborate and brilliant poetical reproductions have been brought from the regions of doubt or mere proba bility into the iull light of fact by the wellknown discoveries of myce ra this fashion of covering walls cf stone with metal plates which seems to have been the most ancient form of mural decorations in greece em ployed even before painted plaster and which characterizes the homeric period of art as an age of bronze was in all probability imported from the east there is an asiatic ring about such lavish use of metals sug gestive of phoenician art which de lighted to cover everything with plates of metal suggestive also of the brazen pillars and other works of brass which hiram king of tyre made for the temple of solomon for hiram was a man skillful to work in gold and in silver in brass in iron in stone and in timber in pur ple in blue and in fine- linen and in crimson also to grave any manner of graving it was moreover from phoenicia that bronze came into greece partly by way of asia minor but more especially by way of cy prus from the story of athens by howard crosby butler what new york is wearing by annebelle worthington illustrated dressmaking lesson fur nished with every pattern simple

frequently dependent on physical conditions and many chil dren who are rated slow by intel ligence tests can attain a higher mark after a few weeks of treat ment according to a study being con ducted

change in the ma jority ot malnourished children he studied ho reiiarts that after twenty weeks of these foods as sup plements to their regular diets the children became more alert physi cally responsive and cooperative the children who had been rated slow dr hodgdon found scored an average of ten points better on the intelligence tests after being given dietary treatment from octo ber to june when the treatment was discontinued during the sum mer vacation tho same children scor ed 48 points less than they had in june children rated iijrmal on the tests gained an average of 38 points

widespread cribbing the older methods are therefore to be re introduced the authority of the tea cher and his responsibility for discip line together with the right to expel recalcitrant pupils are according to tho dispatches to be restored and so are individual ratings and compul sory examinations the curriculum too while keeping somo of the innovations such as the study in fields and workshops

curriculum is not habits nor is a curriculum tools but the manner in which a child lives whilo doing the work provided for in the curriculum makes for either an inte grated or disintegrated individual
