Especial to THE TINES

East Chicago Ind, Sept. 1.-Superin-
tendent Of schools. e. \. Canine. has is
sued his annual report and the state
ment. which has been published in
pamphlet form. contains much that is
Of interest both to parents having
children in the public schools. but to
public spirited citizens generally. Aft
er a few preliminary remarks, in which
Mr. Canine refers to the unusually good
showing Of the year to which the re-
port has reference, he plunges right
into the detailed subject matter in hand.
Near to Mr. aCnine's heart is evidently
the special work which was taken up
last year, as an innovation for the ad-
vancement of backward children. This
is the first feature Of school work men
toned and a greater amount Of space
is allotted to this in the little booklet
than to any one subject. Mr. CANNES
remarks upon this subject open with
some quotations taken from Iaggards
in Our Public Schools by Leonard p
Ayres. secretary of the Backward
Children Investigation Of the Russell
Sage foundation. and in which some
interesting statistics regarding the per
centage of dull children are given. to-
gether with the causes leading up to
their backWardneSs. An interesting adj
dendum to this feature Of the report.
Is Miss Jackson's statement which Gov
ers the work with backward children
for the first six months Of her incumb-
ency in charge Of this branch Of the
educational system.
It appears by the report that there
are more than twice as many girls
who need special help as boys This
IS true in the lower grades as well as
in the higher ones so the excuse that
there are more girls in school than
boys cannot be offered. For example
the number Of boys needing special
help in their studies during January
was 10. as compared with IS girls. In
February boys to % girls. in March.
s to %; in April. 9 to rs, and so on.
The general average for the entire
term was, however, 9 boys TO q girls. in
all the grades. AS a result of this spe-,
cial help. the children who passed with
their classes, and the majority Of whom
would have failed without aid was:
Boys. IS; girls. %; total. A. Two 9TH
ers passed in the subjects in which
they were helped. but failed to pass to
a higher grade for other reasons. OF
the total number girls showed little

A Fine Plav.

There is a class of people who sell
dom visit a theater. but who always
attend a certain class of plays. plays
of the type of The Old Homestead"
Our New Minister" the Ninety and
Nine" That these plays have had long
lives is entirely due to the fact that
they are strongly supported by the
non heatergoing element. To this class
of plays belongs the Minister'S Daugh-
ters,' which viii be Manager Kuech-
ler's offering at the Majestic theater

Daughters" is from the pen of Miron
Leffingwell. an author new to the the
atergoing public. The play was first
produced in Chicago last spring, where
it ran until late in the summer months.
Its success on the road has been so
great that the Rowland Clifford Amuse-
ment company. the producers. have
placed two companies of equal merit
entour. and are now contemplating put

ager Kuechler is TO be congratulated
