The Calumet news. [volume] (Calumet, Mich.) 1907-1938, 1910-06-28

Now that the Laurium playground
is in operation its advantages are more
noticeable and the verdict of the pub
lie is that it is a splendid thing for the
children and one of Laurium's most
valuable assets. The group of ladies
responsible for the creation of this lit
tie park are deserving of great praise
and the thanks of the community. The
playground is well equipped with
amusement devices which delight and
keep the little folks occupied, and
many mothers are grateful to those
who have given the playground move
ment such an excellent start i'm this
district The News hopes to see the
day when Calumet will have more Of
these pleasure places, for adults as
well as children, for they provide sun
shine, pure air, rest and comfort TO
many who are denied these privileges
at their own homes. When the play
ground movement was started in CAL
umet there were some who were In
clned TO scott at the idea. but the same
people today are among those loudest
in their praise of what has already
been accomplished.

Townsend without waiting ON his ad-
vice or leadership Even were this
not the case. Mr.. Osborne Is no tyro In
politics, nor lis he accustomed, fool
like, To rush i'm where angels fear 20
tread. Were he disposed To make en-
tangling political alliances. which he
isn't, his discretion would dictate his
present course of concentrating his
attention on his own campaign.
All OF which is so obvious that the
lying attempts of the anti-Osborne
newspapers 10 misrepresent his posi-
ton i'm this regard are purle and flu
tile. II is equally obvious that Mr.. Os-
born cannot. i'm any manner. be held
responsible for the leanings as to 9TH
er candidates for other Offices of the
hundreds OF particularly warm sup
porters he has in this and other parts
OF the state. He could not control
these supporters in relation To other
matters of politics. If he would and
he wouldn't be foolish enough to try.
Mr.. Osborn is making his campaign
valiantly, welcoming support from all
quarters without analyzing. or bother
ing about. its relations with other can
didates. This is the course the other
candidates should. and will doubtless,
follow. II they don't. II won't be Mr..

CHlPHaSiZiUg essentials
During the present school year the
policy more definitely outlined "a year
ago, of seeking the golden mean be-
tween presenting too much and too
little material to the pupils, of train
ing pupils to discriminate between es-
sential and essentials and de-
voting more time to a mastery of these
essentials through wise assimilation
and thorough drill has been carried
out and much progress has been made.
in better habits of study which has
strengthened the work along all lines,
particularly in the basic subjects.
AS was anticipated, the work I'm
arithmetic has been greatly strength
ened by the introduction and use Of
Harvey's Practical Arithmetics. These
books have afforded choice material
and wise directions to the teachers
for the utilization of that material.
Deflniteness has characterized the
work throughout and highly commend
able progress has been made in this
important subject.
That the work in language and 9TH
er subjects has been well done, no
better nor more conclusive evidence
can be presented than that which
comes to us from the presidents of
institutions where our students are
matriculatcd. | have numerous let
ters which state that our students give
evidence of having had at least as
good training as that afforded by 9TH
schools of the country.
In reading, IL Is matter of deep
regret that the board thought it i'm
possible to furnish the usual supply
of supplementary reading material
The lack of such material will serious
ly handicap the progress OF the work
in the reading in the near future. as the
present supply is rapidly wearing out.
In this connection. | wish TO quote
from Miss Browning's report her
statements concerning reading:
English, that is, reading and Ian
guage, are of most Importance i'm the
grades. The children in our
schools are largely of foreign par
and seldom hear English spok- |
I'm at home. These pupils require very |
definite training in the sounds of the |
English language. Considerable inn
Drovemcnt has been made i'm the study |
)f phonics and consequently I'm the |
reading and spelling. The pupils of |
each grade are able To read n book
suited to that grade with understand
ing and expression. Supplementary
Is very much needed. The
readers are adequate only
{ other material is furnished"
Miss Browning also states: VERY
lefnite Improvement has been made
n spelling.
Some very excellent results are OBJ
aimed in writing.
"The work in arithmetic is very
rood
1T gives me pleasure to state that
he primary rooms OF our schools are
.lmost without exception doing very
God work. The teachers are well pre-
AIRED for their work and obtain excel
nnt results
