SIX AND SIX PLAN.
High School Course of Study Is to Be
Revised


The high schools of Michigan are
each year increasing in Importance.
The last five years has seen a remarkable
movement of rural students to the high
school. There has also been a marked
effort on the part of school authorities
to make the high school teach the
things that will be of most use to the
boys and girls. For the purpose of
aiding in this problem the Department
of Public instruction will publish in
August suggestive Course of Study
for Michigan high schools. 1t will In.
dictate work along four distinct lines:
college preparatory, agriculture, domes-
tic arts and commercial The work
will be outlined so that pupils may be-
gin to choose the line they wish to pur-
sue in the seventh grade instead of the
ninth as at present. This will make
the division between the elementary
school and high school come with the
seventh grade. 1t is believed the large
number of children who now leave
school in the seventh and eighth grades
will be held in school by giving them
work which meets especially with their
needs. This organization will enable
schools to also teach all grades above
the sixth by the departmental plan,
that is by having special teacher for
each subject. Moreover the pupil will
advance by passing subjects instead of
grades
Present conditions in Michigan
schools are such that the proposed plan
can be adopted easily. Several cities
of the state have already tried the plan
In other states also the plan is meeting
with favor wherever tried Because it
divides the school course into two
parts, each covering six years, the pro-
posed organization is commonly called
the Sly and Six plan

After receiving them he was himself
taken sick and says that one small
bottle of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
