CHILDREN LACK REST
They Need More Sleep, Is Dr..
WoodWard's Warning.
TALKS AT C1EVEL AND PARK
Tells Community Association Par
ents to Keep in Touch
With Teachers.
TALKS AT CLEVELAND PARK

Declaring that a proper amount OF
good, healthful sleep was one of the most
necessary things for growing children,
DIR. William c. Woodward District
health officer. urged parents at meeting
of the Cleveland Park and Community
Association held in the John Eaton
School last night to see that their chill
dren received full amount Of sleep each
night.
I'VE hear lots about the need Of plenty
fresh air for Children said the speaker,
but We hear very little about the matter
Of sufficient sleep. None Of the children
these days gets proper amount of sleep.
and the need Of this regulation rest will
become very apparent before so very
long. and then steps will be taken to
remedy it. Why not do it now? The
children are not getting the rest which is
due them. 1t is up to the parents them
selves, for the teachers cannot help what
happens in the home.
First Filled With Food.
I'm the few rare cases where the mod
ern child is put to bed at an hour that is
good for his health he is previously
filled with lot of indigestible food and
sweets that take away from the ad-
vantages of rest"
DIR. Woodward declared the mother was
responsible for the welfare of the child,
and that she should see to it that the
child got the required amount Of sleep.
He advised the parents to keep in touch
with the child's teacher, as the teacher,
having many children of the same age un-
der her, was able to judge better of the
child's physical and mental helath. He
pointed out that the parent could not we'll
judge his child's health without COM
pairing 1t with other children of the same
age.
Library at School Kept Open.
Resolutions protesting against the cur
tailment of the privileges of the Public
Library through lack of congressional
appropriation were adopted. Last year a
branch library was established at the
John Eaton School, but through a def
cheney in the congressional appropriation
no funds were available for that purpose
this year. A committee, representing the
Philip Smith, chairman, representing the
association. has gathered contributions
enough, however. to keep the branch open
at the school until next June.
Identification of the school grounds was
discussed briefly and committee, headed
by Peter Bissett, chairman, was appointed
to take up the matter and see what could
be done to improve the grounds.

dent, Frank ]. Hogan; first vice president,

MANY WORDS PUzzL|NC.
.T0SCHOOL Boy AND GIRL
Official Shows Some of Great
est Stumbling Blocks
in Spelling.

What is the matter with schoolboy and
schoolgirl spelling?
A. T. Stuart, director Of intermediate
instruction. says that children spell bet
ter today than they did fifty years ago,
but admits that even nowadays there are
some words that some children always
misspell.
A circular recently sent out to teachers
shows certain words that are misspelled
most frequently in the lower grades, and
also misspelled most frequently in the
higher grades. In other words, children
in many instances seem to fly through
their photographic career like comets
with brilliant trail of misspelled words
which stick to them for life, and become
the features and distinguishing marks of
their education, unless attended to.
Words Which Puzzle.
The words which seem to give public
school children the greatest trouble, ac-
cording to the list sent around by Mr.
Stuart, are all good. wholesome and
necessary Anglo-Saxon words, with one or
two exceptions. Nickel is misspelled all
the way from the third to the eighth
grade. Twelfth trails along as
Twelfth 'twelphth'' and twelfth" all
the way from the fourth grade to the
high school. The simple word ninety"
according to the records, battles the stu
dents from the fourth to the eighth
grade.
Any one would think that the time
honored classic THE Village Black
smith would enable children in the
fifth. sixth and seventh grades to spell
village" correctly, but. evidently 1t
might as well be an urban performer
on the anvil. for village Is turned into
"villitch" and everything else but
village" piece" is a hard nut all
the way from the third to the sixth
grade. Necessary" with its double
dose Of sibilants. makes hard spelling
in the fourth. sixth and eight grades
1t would appear that after losing out
in the fourth grade the students ap-
prehend it for a year in the fifth and
get the word right; lose it in the
sixth, get it again in the seventh. and
lose it once more in the eighth. There
are several ways of spelling several"
in the public schools.
