Educators all over the country are

something Of eugenics, and It was
because OF this that each cir! cEild
admitted had to meet ycry

Stud:ee, exercises, play and method
OF living have been framed with the
full view of mainta ming normality
snd of effecting, if possible, what
may be called supcr-normality
AT the same time the originatOrs
have aimed at attaining the very
first wastcless education ever offered
in the United States This Is effected
by corrclation of studies-really, TN
intcrlocking training. For instance,
English, history ana geography are
nj! taught together as closely related
parts Of one subject. French is
taught by combination OF the
Montessoli and phonetic methods
with reading. writing and speaking
at the same time. In the second
year Latin will be begun on similar
methods, and Greek or German viii
be started in The fourth year. Every
where possible studies have beer
combined so that what undcr existing
methods takes three or four distinct
mental motions" can be accom-
plishcd in one. :.
In some OF the more advanced Ger
man schools mathematics and draw
ing are taught in manner which
makes each subject supplement ant
explain the other. and This metho,
will BE- used in the model school. Tn
principles of design will include tn

Schooling in the Open Air

The work in science will begin with

Personally I do not like the hustle,
and am sorry to see It's revival, but,
being woman. there are many logi.
cal things that dislike. l adore the

best to have it retained for tailored
gowns, especially those developed in
heavy fabrics.
The most favored early Spring fab.
ric will be the delightful taffetas.
The present kinds are soft and
supple. and will drape charmingly.
They will even lend themselves to
the hustle figure as gracefully as any

tomorrow.
OF the three figures prefer that
OF tomorrow. The gown is lovely.
There is the new rounded train.
which Is very effective. The long
sleeves are decidedly chic. Even
opera gowns are being made waist
length. This draped tunic Is drawn
firmly upward. so that tho figure is
