NINE, MONTESSOR|
HER UNIQUE
Method That Makes a Child
Direct Its Own Education.
Claims Big Results.
n ME-. MARIA MONTESSORI of
!" Rome, founder Of the Mon
N tessori system of education,

AZ ME-. MARIA MONTESSORI of
l" Rome, founder of the Mon
H tessori system of education,
has arrived in this country
to study our systems Of education, to
see the work done by her own students
in different parts Of the country and
especially to give the people of Amer
lea who have expressed an interest in
her system broader view of the work.
It is said that there are between six
ty-fve and seventy teachers in the
United States who have studied under
her and have received certificates au-
thorizing them to teach her method.
Rhode Island is the only state in this
country which has taken up officially
the Montessori system of education,
and there it is to be introduced into
the State Normal school. Miss Clara
Craig, supervisor Of observation and
training schools in Rhode Island, was
sent by her state to take a four
months course at the Montessori
school, and upon her return the state
officially accepted her report advising
the adoption of the method of instruc-
ton. The only other countries repre-
sented at the school with her, she said.
were India and England.
First Experiment Here.
The first "hOuse of childhOod.l as the
Montessori schools are called. in the
United States was started in 1911 at
Tarrytown, N. Y, by Miss Anne E.
George, who now has a similar school

in Washington. Miss George was DR..
Montessori's first American pupil.
This Montessori school is still in opera
tion and is in charge of Il former as
sistant of Miss George.
Superintendent of Schools Maxwell
and the New York board of education
have also caught the Montessori fever,
and a "house Of childhood'' was re-
Gently established in Brooklyn for the
purpose of trying out the system.
American educators first had their
attention focused on DR.. Montessori's
method Of teaching young children by
the leading article in McClures Maga-
zine for May, 1911. 1t was named 'An
Educational Wonder Worker" with
1.-The Methods of Maria Montessori''
as subhead. and was written by Miss
Josephine Tozier
Thanks to the publicity given to her
educational message, Mme Montes-
SORTS name is better known in Ameri-
ca today than that of Froebel and
Pestalozzi. Her most enthusiastic sup
porters contend that she is even great
er than these two kindergartners, as
they had metaphysical and philo-
sophical standpoint, while she is pri-
marily scientist and psychologist.
Dr. Montessori says that she was the
first woman in Rome to take up the
study of medicine and that it attract
ed great deal Of attention and criti-
cism. Finally 1t was carried to the
ears of Pope Leo XIII. He however,
gave his approval, saying he could see
no harm In it, She was graduated in
1896 from the College of Medicine in
Rome.
Nine. Montessori has brought to the
United States motion picture films
which will show exactly how the work
is carried on in the Houses Of Child
hood in Rome. After her series of lee
lures she will return to Rome early in
January.
The Montessori Method.
DR.. Montessori hopes to start in
Rome a school in which she may take
young children and carry them through
term of ten years or more. 1t will
be laboratory school where the chill
dren may be studied carefully and
where they will live constantly under
the supervision Of the instructor. II
this school Mme Montessori hopes tt
have children Of different nationali
ties. Her method of instruction is SC
