the records made by the new department
may suggest, and be used as a basis Of,
more extended Investigations by the family
physician.
1t seems more than probable that the steps
taken by the Chicago School Board in es-
tablishing this department are the beginning
of sweeping reforms in the American public
school system generally and in taking the
initiative the Chicago School Board has
shown itself ready to adopt an advanced po-
sitlon in educational matters. The value of
such department depends wholly, of course,
upon the nature of the men who attend to
the detailed and general work. They should
be thoroughly competent and possessed of
that strictly scientific spirit which seeks to
prove no theory whatever, but to learn the
facts exactly as they are and to base all flu
ture operations upon them. Dr. Christopher,
the head of the Chicago department, is al
most an ideal person for the place. 1t is due
to his intelligent initiative and steady per-
sistence that the department was established.
Its work is now being conducted by compe-
tent specialists along lines laid down by him
and there Is no doubt that future investiga-
tions will equal or exceed in value those
which have already been made.

which the cylinder is raised. The results
obtained with the spirometer have been very
satisfactory
The ergograph by which the tests OF en-
durance are made, is a unique apparatus
and much the most interesting Of those
used by the department The hand and arm
OF the child undergoing the ergograph test
are so strapped down that the middle finger
only can be moved. Then the finger is in
serted in a loop connected with a weight
exactly per cent OF the child's weight and
the child is requested to bend the finger
and thus raise the weight forty-fye times
in a minute and a half, or once every two
seconds during that period. BY n revolving
scroll and etylus arrangement, a record Of
the work done Is made automatically and
the record is preserved to correspond with
the individual card upon which the child's S
other records are written.
A special geographic record, or ergo
gram, made by person in first-class con-
dtion Is shown herewith, 1t will be OBJ
served that its lines are remarkably even at
the beginning, but decrease with conspic-
uous regularity. Records quite different in
appearance are made by children who are
not in good shape physically and 1t has been
found in practice that the ergograph at
once reveals the nervous child, the child OF
highstrung temperament and the child Of
irregular capacity for work. Thus the ergo
graph is supposed to indicate nerve power,
rather than muscular strength. Singular
as it. may seem, the results obtained appear
Omaha daily bee., 1899-10-15

to bear out this notion, since 1t is not at all
unusual for a person of delicate physique
and with a comparatively undeveloped
muscular system to make a better showing
than a far more muscular individual.
The manuometer, used for testing the grip.

Similar study of children has been carried
on in tho past in many places and by many
investigators, but never before under the
auspices of municipality or state as a part
of the regular educational system or in con-
ditions making it possible to study a large
number of children by exactly the same
methods of a considerable period. The

establishment OF the department in connec-
ton with the Chicago school system was
brought about by the efforts OF Dr. W. S.
Christopher, a member of the Chicago School
Board, whose specially as a physician is
the treatment of children and who has
been convinced for years that the efficiency
of the public schools everywhere could be
increased vastly were a careful and sci
entifc scheme OF child study to be in
augurated.
DR.. Christophers views, shared by many
eminent educators. by the way, is not that
the measuring and testing are of value in
themselves to the school department, but
that, considered in relation to age and class
standing, they may be made the basis of
deductions which will suggest highly useful
changes in the grading of the children
and in the school courses themselves This
view seems borne out with special force by
the records obtained in one OF Chicago's un-
graded schools. Only pupils who are back
wards in their mental development are sent
to this school. Hitherto their low standing
has been attributed to obstinacy and vicious
ness in many instances, but the records
show clearly that backwardness may be
and frequently is due to physical causes, the
low mental status OF the child being ac-
companied by some bodily defect in nearly
Tins of ireuficient nutrition--in other words
thoy didn't have enough to eat, and, being
partially starved, 1t was impossible for them
to do the regular school work. Others
were short in lung capacity, and close in
vestigation showed that the nasal passages
Of most OF those suffering from this defect
were too small to allow normal breathing.
1t was found that one girl who had never
been able to talk plainly was partially deaf;
not having heard spoken words with dis
tnctness she was, OF course, herself unable
to articulate them properly. In fact 60 per
cent OF all in the school were below normal
in hearing. Other backward children were
pronouncedly asymmetrical or one-sided in
their physical development and various
other physical causes for intellectual slow
ness were brought out.
Records AnaIyzed.
Tho prime objoet OF the early work was
the obtaining OF data regarding the normal
child, and, in fact this is the chief purp Sc
OF the work now in progress This is why
the bulk OF the operations have been carried
