The betterment of the home and the bringing together more clnselyof the school and tho home, arr principles now which are not only Influences hopefully evident in modern educa tional systems, but organizations hav ing those same principles as their ba sic purpose. Schools lor "grown-ups" are being organized in various ways both in the cities and In the rural communities. The great universities are fostering the same movement in their extension work, and there seems a place and a need for ench succeed ing movement along these lines. The After-School Club of America with headquarters in Philadelphia, Is an organization sending a good mes sage out and sending it in organized, tangible form. Its principle Is to educate; to help along the parent and the child at the snmc tfme, and to take tho teacher In the compact. Literature bearing on matters related to the movement In diffused, corres pondence between the members of the After-School Club and the heads of it. encouraged, and linally opportunities for acquirement of tho best reading matter on various subjects, made pos sible for a reasonable expenditure.

' "The most distinctive feature of the movement Is a series of personal com radeshlp letters which uro written by Nathaniel M. Dmvsun to boys and girls. 'Uncle Nt.' as he Is called by the little men and Woiih n inemscrs of the club, writes very personal letters tt hioh are designed to develop 'i the child's desires and queries, and to help iilm form Ideals nnd umblliona, Blnco one of the events In a child's life i the arrival of a letter which Is his erv own. you cun readily imagine the influence on a boy or girl of a fort nightly letter from a grown person of lol'tv ideals who instlnctly reaches the child's own plane of thought and In terest. Undo Nat's letters to children and young people nbout falrios, birds. music, art, wonders of science ana na ture, animals, sports, amtntinns, cnar- ictcrs in history, etc., are stimulating character builders. His letters to boys are written to meet a boy's point of view: tho letters to girls show the more delicate feminine view-point, but both without exaggeration of sex dif ferences. Mr. Dawson lays hold of every fact supplied by the parents, and supplements It with the revela tions the children make of themsolvea In their own letters. Ho then deduces a systematic plan leading the child into such use of books as will strengthen the weak places In his taijte, giving him direction In handi craft.
