A Step Forward

Ann Abbor, April 19, 189J. Editor Courier : - Is it true as rumor has it that our school authorities are to inaugúrate a new era in taking the children of all the grades into the flelds Saturdays to see the peeping of the bulbs, the opening of the flowers, and to collect mosses, pebbles, bugs, and caterpillers, and observe the transformaron of the latter, - in fact to study Nature ? Can you inform us, Mr. Editor? We hope it is, for Ann Arbor should lead in these movernents, as the " young idea" is ready to drink in all this. Yours for progress,
