SPELLING Is NEGLECTED.

Member Of the Fargo Board Of Edu-
cation Complains Of Lack Of Edu-
cation in Spelling.
A member Of the board of educa-
ton of the Fargo city schools has q
statement in the Call that 1t was a
great surprise to the superintendent
and others to learn that so great a
deficiency existed in the matter Of
spelling among the pupils of the
Fargo high school, In order to test
the proficiency of the pupils list of
25 words was given for spelling and
the list comprised words in common
use as follows:
College, transitive. excel, parochial
hemorrhage, conscience, criticism.
icicle. physical, vertical, article. We
hicle, technical, pleurisy, debtor. rea.
sorable, lily, lilies conscience.
After the test the pupils were asked
to go to room where the words had
been written correctly on black
board and to mark the words mis-
spelled. Many fell below the 80 per
cent mark and very few stood above
80 per cent. Indeed, many children
failed to "catch" all the errors and
unwittingly gave themselves credit
/ for a higher percentage than their
work warranted.
Specimens of the papers showing
the incorrect spelling were printed
and the statement made that the pu-
pills were from the best homes in the
city where painstaking parents er
deavored 10 care for their children
The fault is claimed 70 be due t.
insufficient Instruction in the school
more than to anything else.
