SUPERINTENDENT
SUGGESTS PLANS
FOR HIS TEACHERS
Sitting Down and Holding
Fast TO Text Books During
REGULATIONS are DeplOred
and More Frequent Meetings
Advised.
NEWS OF CITY SCHOOLS

Instructions involving new ideas
in conducting recitations in city
schools have been received by prin-
cipals in each school building from
Superintendent John Carnagey.
In a letter to principals Superin-
tendent Carnagey suggests that
teachers be instructed to stand. while
conducting all recitations. The rea-
sons given are that half the interest
is lost and a bad example set If teach
ers sit. Hold too closely to text Socks
while conducting a recitation also is
cited as bad.
Superintendent Carnagey believes
in grade meetings and plenty of them
Heretofore one grade meeting each
month followed the general monthly
teachers meetings. This year Super
intendent Carnagey inaugurates a
new plan. and Will hold two grade
meetings each week. So far into de-
tail did teachers of the second grade
go yesterday afternoon. that It was
6 o'clock before the meeting ad-
journed.
Teachers are much encouraged
over orderly lines al the Washington
building. Never before i'm the his
tory of the school have pupils been
trained to such an excellent degree
in forming and marching into their
rooms.
