TO CURE CHILDREN OF SHUTTER

An interesting addition to the cours'
of instruction in the public schools o.
Vienna is TO be made this winter b.
providing classes in four districts to
overcome the defects in speech of chill
dren who stutter. The length Of ths
course is to be five weeks, and instruc
ton is to be given during two hoursfo1
each week day. The number of pupils
in each class is limited to eight, as &
class cannot be conducted successfully
with a large number. The children are
to withdraw from other school attend
ance, as it is essential that they devote
themselves exclusively to the confs<
for the cure of suffering. In order Il
be admitted TO the classes the children
must present medical certificates tina
they are free from any organic disease
that would interfere with the purpose
of the instruction. 5
The corporation of the parents is es-
pecially important to the success Of thu
cure. During the period of the special
instruction it is necessary that the chill
eALNli NAVY q GElI1t ttAI ltgitt at AtSlstS
where they can practice the exercises
given them without any disturbance
whatsoever. The parents must under
take to have the children practice their
exercises atthomea for at least four
hours daily, and during the first two
weeks not to allow them TO speak at
all, except to practice the exercises pre-
scribed by the course Of instruction.
Keeping silent IS of such Importance
that the success of the course depends
upon this requirement being strickly
observed, Parents are particularly adj
vised never to cast any doubt upon the
effectiveness of the course or Of the
teachers. 1t is we'll known that stutter-
ers lack self-confidence, and this must
be taken in account In the treatment,
The children should be encouraged by
calling attention to progress that has
been made, for Sufferers are EXTREMITY
susceptible to praise. Parents, how
ever, should be careful to make no ex-
periments and to make no tests.
At the end Of the FIVE weeks course
the instructor brings each pupil hack
to his regular school and indicates to
his teacher what has been accomplish
ed, besides giving advice concerning
/ his further instruction The teacher Is
requested To try to encourage and
make permanent the new habits ac-
quired. Children who's have taken the
/ special course in suffering are exainin-
ed afterwards each month iii order 10
determine what permanent results
have been obtained. CONSUL General
