that the optimistic condition for men,
tai and moral growth and unfolding is
a maximum of physical health and de-
velopment. Thus while it may be
right and proper for teachers to learn
to score corn and become expert in
judging the qualities of farm animals,
it is immensely more important that
they learn to Judge children. What
are the standard physical measure
ments Of the normal six year old,
seven year old, or eight year old, and
which children in class of a dozen
are the most perfect types of their
ages; and which vary most from the
type? These are the questions which
the up-to-date teachers are learning to
answer Not only are they learning
to answer these questions, but they
are learning to help mature and en-
vironment to approximate the normal
type in so far as health and symme-
trical development is concerned.
Throughout the child's school career
careful tests and measurements are
made and recorded so that at any time
the child's whole school history may
easily be secured and consulted If
there has been retardation anywhere
along the line Dit is never entirely
overcome nor can it be overcome;
hence, the necessity of abbreviating
such tendencies as much as possible.

Continued from Last Issue.)

Continued from Last lSSue.)
The interesting article from the pen
of Prof. A. p. Hollis begun in last
weeks issue of the State Normal
School Extension" is concluded this
week in short article in which the
writer gives space to the plans Of the
Model school relative to the estab-
lishment of a psychological clinic,
such as has been given good deal of
attention in eastern schools
The school is planning also to
employ the methods" writes Mr.
Hollis, of the Psychological Clinics
TO provide with still greater
care for exceptional children. The
supervisor of the Model school spent
six weeks with DR.. Wilmer at the Uni.
versity of Pennsylvania last summer,
investigating the methods of the
psychological clinic, which is attract.
ing considerable attention in educa.
tional circles, DR.. Wilmer having been
the originator of that kind of work.
AS soon as the school IS equipped with
the proper apparatus 1t Is hoped to
make center for the treatment of
difficult cases in the schools of Valley
City and some of the neighboring
towns. The plan is to combine the
methods of = the psychological Clinic
with very complete medical and
physical examination by regular staff
physician, and with such investiga.
tons and tests as the Psychology de.
partment of the institution may be
able to furnish.
In the matter of election of differ
ent lines of work for the different
pupils, the school is feeling it's way
with great caution. It is not the policy
of the school to prepare grade child
rem for vocations, and it is not ap-
preaching the elective problem from
the vocational standpoint, but it does
recognize the fact that some pupils
are sensory minded while others are
motor minded, and that these two
groups do not feed equally well on the
same material; SO that classes in Man
ual Training, Domestic Science, Ger
man, Agriculture, Physics, and the
like, are introduced in the grade cur.
riculum and in some cases substi-
tuted for the regular line of studies
until pupils have found themselves.

pleted, and had to wait for the end of
the year before promotion could take
place. The problem is most fascinat.
ing one the Model school has ever un-
dertaken to solve, and it does not feel
that it has by any means reached the
final solution, but these several plans
are being given careful trial and
1t is believed that real progress has
been made in the direction of the free
development of the individual educa.
