the left is shifted every ten minutes.

of the number on top. Six dollars is the

The Fire Drill.
Several times a week at Dennison the
signal for the fire drill is given. THIS
comes without warning to anyone in
the building and IS given by Miss Raw-
Engs. the principal The signal IS the
rapid ringing Of a bell AT the first ring
all the pupils leave their seats and get
their hats and cioaks. At the second
ring the pupils on the first floor march
out in line and cross the street in front
Of the building. At the second ring
those on the second floor 60 out, and
the third is the signal for the scholars
on the third floor to quit the building.
Every room has its particular position
on the sidewalk across from the build
ing and goes TO 1t In regular order This
rule is observed that the teachers may
know where every member OF their
classes is Absolute order IS preserved
as the boys and girls file quickly out OF
the building and the chances OF a crush
and the injury of pupils by overcrowd-
ing at the doorways and on the stairs
are thereby minimized. Miss Rawlings
stands at the main entrance OF the
building until every pupil and teacher
has passed by on the way out. not quit
ting her post until the building is empty
The pupils bring only their clothing with
them and no tine is wasted attempting
TO save books or papers.
The fire drill forms very pretty
sight, the most attractive Of which is
furnished by the smaller children; the
members of the kindergarten, the first
and the second grades. who come run

their coats on or half on and Others
carrying both hats and coats in their
hands.
When everyone is out and in position

the signal 10 return. and all hle back in
regular order TO resume their class

The kindergarten system as taught at
the Dennison School. and at the other
public schools in the city. is the same
as that used in Boston, Pittsburg. Bal
timore. and Brooklyn. and which is the
work. for the most part. Of Miss Susan
E. Blow. the recognized leader of kin
dersarten ia this country. To avoid de-
serving the charge Of sentimentality
which is frequently brought against the
kindergarten, those in charge of the
work in the public schools OF Washing
ton have outlined a program of work
based upon high Intellectual plane WITH
a view 10 making it a vitaIizing force
in the life Of the child The main idea
Of this program is that The child should
be taught, at a period when impress
sions are most vital and lasting. TO see

dependent and interrelated-
The Home Idea.
The kindergarten program begins with
the family, the first institution into
which the child enters. and leads out
from the known to the unknown. The
family life Of the lower animals is laid
before them, that they may see their
own family life reflected in that OF the
birds Of the air and the beasts of the
field. The little tots are led to notice
the different kinds Of homes in nature.

are taught songs and games relating TO
family life; they are taught punctuaIity
and carefulness. being required to re-
turn uninjured the toys and playthings
that are loaned them. Nothing alb
stract is taught at De1nison kinder
garten- Everything is concrete. and the
children are taught by means of OBJ
jects in and out Of the schoolroonn. They
are taken around to the markets, the
dairies. the bakeries, and other places
where they can see for themselves how
things are made The object is to stir
Iaheir interest. to stimulate their desire
TO know. and give them seeing eyes.
Mothers Invited to Cooperate.
The mothers of the children are en-
couraged to visit the kindergarten and
see their little ones at work that they
may supplement the school work witt

recognize the interest stimulated in tn,
