THE NETHERLANDS AND BELGIUM. Tue participation of the Netlierlands in the educational group at Vienna, as at former World’s Fairs, was not very active. Be- sides various Works kaving reference to the schools, specimens by the pupils were exhibited only by the “ Society of the Working- men ” in Amsterdam. A survey of the department of the Peo- ple’s and Middle Schools, was, however, given in a report, 1 which the government had caused to be written especially for the Exhi bition ; and from this report the following data concerning instruc- tion in drawing have been extracted : — Aecording to the law of 1857, the elements of the knowledge of form and of drawing were admitted into primary instruction. The first of these subjects, however, is not yet fully understood every- where, especially where the schools are in the hands of older teachers. It has been of but little use wherever it was treated as a sort of geometry, but without the rigorous logical demonstra- tion which is needed by the latter subject, and has been conducive to improvement only in those schools in which it was used as an aid to the imaginative faculty of the pupils, or as a preparation for instruction in drawing. Drawing itself has also received its just treatment in a few only of the public and private schools ; as a general thing it is confined to copying (upon slates) the figures which have been drawn on the blackboard. It is only of late that some of the assistant teachers have received certificates in this branch, so that an improvement may now be looked for. In the Middle Schools, regulated by law since 1863, drawing plays a more important part, especially in those which have been destined for the education of the working-classes. Formerly there existed only Drawing-Schools proper, in which instruction was con- 1 Written by St. Prave. inspector of Primary Schools. 140
