4 xEY 70 tine SITUATION

Inc most emc1ent, the most demo
cratic public school system In this
country Is at Gary, Indiana.
For the first time In the history OF
education, scientific methods have been
applied to education, scientific manage.
msnt 70 . school system, the educa.
Nonal capacity doubled and the cost Of
education cut in two, oil 1t the same
time.
Il 10 only natural that q city built
by engineers for an organization so
largely involving engineering should
partske Of an engineering mind in its
educational system.
The man who accomplished this
educational wonder Is william Writ,
formerly in charge Of the public
schools Of Blutfton, Indiana, aud he
was found by the engineer who laid
out the sewer system Of Gary.
The writer spent half day recently
at Emerson School, the largest school
building, or school plant as it is calf
cd, in Gary, aud which is typical of
the whole system.
The system differs from that ordinar-
lily adapted by cities In the following
major particulars
Emerson School has the size and ap.
pearance Of the typical modern city
high school, but kindergarten, primary
grades, grammar grades and the high
school courses are all taught under one
roof.
Ordinarily the capacity OF building
the size,of Emerson School would only
be about 1,04O pupils, but by rotating
the classes and keeping one.half the
pupils on the play grounds, in the
manual training department, in the
gymnasium, in the swimming pool, in
drawing or music, the ordinary school
room capacity Is doubled to $3.50
pupils.
The school plant is in operation
from eight O'Clock In the morning un.
al I've o'clock In evening, six days .
week the year around, but . child does
not stay in the strait.jscket Of one
dssk oil day, nor are they compelled to
attend Saturdsys or during the two
months ordinarily allotted TO vacation.
Very few textbooks are used
Every teacher 10 specialist In one
hsaseh Of education, aud BY the rotat.
Ing systsm does not teach anything
bat their particular speciality.
Evsry child has locker, but NO
SECULAR desk.
The whole educational system can
b summed up In three words:-
Learn By doing!
The idea Of having % many grades

root 10 for both efficiency In education
and economy Of operation.
In the first place It il based on the

 The government has already shown, in the opinion of the east ern papers, that the coal lands were to be turned over to the Guggenheims when secured from the government. The government attorneys claim they will intro duce the actual correspondence between the parties.
 The defense does not seem to know how much of a case the government has and are becom- ing worried as to the outcome.

GOVERNOR SULzER IS AFTER SCOTT
 Ta
New York Governor Wants to Dust State Superintendent
 of Prisons.

Albany, March 15.---tioN. Sulzcr has preferred charges against Superintendent of State Prisons Joseph J. Scott, and will give him a hearing as soon as possible. The governor claims that the sup drintendent has been lax in his methods of supervising the pris- ons in his care and also charges him with neglect of duty.
 Supt. Scott is a Democrat and has strong backing both in New York City and from upstate poli- ticians, and the break is likely to lead to big row among the Dem- ncrats of the state.
 Murphy and Sulzer have split. Murphy controls the Senate and no more Sulzer appointments will be confirmed, while it is said the governor will appoint only anti Tammany men.
