Change In PenmanshIp.

The most important change that has
been planned in regard to the work in
the schools is in the penmanship. Four
years ago a system of vertical pen.
manship was introduced. The teach
erS have worked faithfully with this,
but the results have been far from
satisfactory. Business men have
found the writing of pupils who have
been trained in this style of penman-
ship slow and unsatisfactory. In the
practice work in the schools the re-
suits have tended toward a back-hand,
and the desired beauty and speed have
not been secured. The general trend
in the schools of the country has been
more recently from the use of vertical
writing to a modified slant. After
careful consideration of the matter,
school authorities have adopted a sys-
TEN of semi-slant writing for use in
schools. and Superintendent Hayden
believes that this will be much more
satisfactory in it's results and give pu-
pills better individual handwriting.
Manual Training ReOrGnnIzed.
At the last meeting of the board
arrangements were made TO organize
the manual work that has been car
ried on in the lower grades into a
definite course. Miss Dean, the sup
ervisOr of drawing and art, will have
charge of this work in the first four
grades, and Mr. Kent. supervisor of
manual training, will direct the work
in the upper four grades and high
school. This means that there will
be installed in the schools a system
attic course in hand training running
from the first grade all the way up
through and into the high school. The
course begins with simple work like
paper cutting and paper weaving in
the first grade. wool weaving and the
construction of simple. useful objects
in the intermediate grades, and card
board work and knife work with soft
woods and the teaching of the use of
common tools to the boys and sewing
work for the girls in the grammar
grades, up to the more formal shop
work for the boys in the high school.
In this respect the Rock Island city
schools are simply taking place with
the progressive schools of the country.
as il has come TO be recognized that
the training of the hand and eye
through manual work is just as impor-
tant in the education of the child as
is his instruction in the scholastic
branches of SchoOlwOrk
