CLOCKS AS EDUCATORS.
Armour Institute Professor Pleads
 for Idea Used by Germans.

Chicago Inter-Ocean.
 ''While travehng in Europe last sum- rner," said Prof. Louis c. Monhn of Ar mour Institute, the other day. T came across 0 queer little clock. It was com plete in all it's parts, but was not put to- egther. It is intended that children shall examine the different parts of the affair and then arrange them s6 that the clock will run.
 1T should like to see such 6 contrivance as this introduced into America. It in- terests children. instructs them and gives them a natural pride in caring for some thing that they have created.
 lover in Germany they call these ht- tie contrivanoes 'tick-tacks,' and primary educators set great store by them. In Chicago the smart boy is given loco motive-a miniature railroad. He then proceeds to smash 1t to pieces, and his proud parents present him with a toy electric launch. He also smashes that. As that boy grows up he becomes more reckless. Z=Stead of cherishing his pos sessions he has no regard for them"
