Should a Child Go to School at Six?

Ella Frances Lynch, the we'll known
educator and Investigator, in the first
of a series of articles, in the March
Pictorial Review. asks the question
''Why send child to school at six
years-much less at four or fve?"
Then she goes on to say:
Theoretically a child is supposed to
enter school at six. because it is sup
posed to take him eight years at five
hours day to prepare for high school
which is at present the end OF the
elementary schools Probably it will
take him eight years if he begins at
six with seventy other children. But
it has been conclusively proved that if
classes are small enough SO that
teacher can reach her individual
pupils. four years of schooling begun
at ten years of age, will result in
pupils even better prepared for high
school than those who begin at six !
This is because the ten-year-old brings
to his studies mature mind, and can
master in a few months work what
would take a year beginning at six.
And bear in mind that the six-year old
spends five hours day in school-not
necessarily in learning. In nearly all
the schools the size Of the lower grade
makes it necessary for the teacher to
| give OUG oil GuGlcSo HdllSLy VI oO-
called ''busy work. This means
spelling to be copied again and again,
copies of number work. to be
followed 'tuntiI both sides of the slate
are full" In this way. the teacher is
enabled to attend to the needs of G
small group at time. the only way
she really can teach anything to young
children. The other children are ir
school-but not learning. So tbs
school wastes not only time. but the
energy Of the children in its care,
turning their efforts into mere
mechanical repetition until the brain
is weary and stupefed. Could any
thing be less educational?
It is a severe arraignment that
make, that the public school stupidity
and wantonly wastes public funds
human initiative and human energy
and stultifies instead of stimulating
efficiency. But in this arraignment
do not stand alone. DIR. Eliot says:

The letter written the editor by
Judge Miles and published in these
columns two weeks ago has been
copied in other papers and favorably
commented upon by several Vermont
publications. Judge Miles certainly
presents matters in very clear and
logical manner and the letter went to
a considerable extent in clearing up a
somewhat misunderstood conception of
the courts of this state.

The Missisquoi valley in this county
is in another atmosphere compared
with the rest of the county in many
respects. At the last gubernatorial
election that valley voted the Republi-
can ticket with a good margin while
the rest of the county went strongly
for the Progressive ticket. The vote
March meeting day on the primary
question was another example of the
different public sentiment that apears
to prevail in that valley. Lowell
Westfeld, Troy and Jay make up the
valley and these towns gave the direct
primary a cold shoulder. while the rest
of the county voted strongly for it.
One who takes the pains to note these
matters becomes interested in the
question: Why?

GIRL OF TODAY.

The typical American girl of
today differs from the girl of six
ty years ago in that she is more
artificial. She has more accom-
plishments. but not so many sol
id requirements. She has to be
differentiated into the society
girl and the girl who is not
what might be called a social
factor in one Of our great CEN
tiers. Fashionable girls are so
few in comparison to the rest
that ! think among the great
mass Of the latter must be found
the typical American girl. But
the girl who represents a great
many American women in the
country differs from the type Of
sixty years ago only in this. that
she is more travelled. and her
horizon is broader. Her educa-
ton is on a higher plane. but
she knows less of domestic ac-
complishments and is more eX-
pensive as wife until she learns
them.-Chauncey NJ. Depew.

Says Ufford's Figures Wrong.

Editor Monitor:
In the Monitor of recent date it was
stated that the value of the hay crop
of Vermont for the last year totaled
in round numbers So, 100000 and that
it surpassed in value nearly all the
other states EKansas, and ssNebraska
included. It may be of interest to you
to know that the value of the alfalfa
hay alone raised in Kansas last year
was over $18. O0O 600 and that other
hay was raised which brought the total
value of hay produced in Kansas to over
S28, OOU, 900. The value of hay pro-
duced in Nebraska was almost as
large.

A PECULIAR FATALITY

Providence Man Meets Death by Fall
ing Into CoaIhod
John Leath, a fish dealer, was suf-
located at his home at Providence.
He was found dead with his head in
a coalhod, which was damned tightly
beneath water pipes in the kitchen.
1t is supposed that while sleeping
in a chair, he fell out and struck his
head on the coalhod, which slid be-
meath the pipes. Leach's position
was such that it would have beeen i'm
possible for him to have extricated
himself.
