beneath and the water under the earth are impractical because 

 the field covered is so great that there can be no proper prepara- 

 tion, no sense of responsibility and therefore very little real 

 individual observation. Our pupils must discover some of the 

 secrets from nature herself before they will begin to love or even 

 appreciate nature.

 personally discovered by the child. AA^e may radiate the sun- 

 light of enthusiasm and pour the showers of loving appreciation 

 but there can be no growth until that seed is planted.
