iNsTRUcTlNe THE
 ADULT IMMIGRANT

In a communication recently receiv- ed at the Governors office, H. H. Wheaton of the U. S. Bureau of Edu- cation emphasizes the necessity of teaching the adult immigrant how Co speak English as soon as possible af- ter his arrival in this country.
 With the adult immigrant. desire for instruction and ability to acquire language are largely lost" says Dr. Wheaton. yet. inability to speak Eng lish is the most serious barrier to in- tercourse between Americans and for eigners. Furthermore. employers are coming to see the necessity of teach ing their foreign born employees the English language and something of the rules of safety Experience has shown that a large amount Of indus trial accidents are due to the fact that foreigners have not understood the orders of foremen A canvass of many employees of foreign-born work ingmen indicates that a knowledge of English is urgently needed.
 In eight of the principal cities of the United States. according to Dr. Wheaton. the number of foreign-born adults unable to speak English to- tals over SOOOOO. New York alone has 422.OOO
 The types of schools adapted to the education of the immigrant are even- ing. industrial and camp schools. "The number of classes provided by different cities" declares Mir. Wheat on Ifs far from adequate. Approp- riations are insufficient to provide the requisite teaching. Failure to apprec. fate the need of increase in accom- modations is shown by the fact that 19 cities in the State of New York, with a population of 10000 to 80,00O and with a foreign-born population varying from 1000 to 1000. have no night classes where immigrants can learn the English language.
 Dr. Wheaton finds that private and religious agencies have largely sup plemented the inadequate provisions made by the State to teach adult im- migrants English and American laws and customs.

VALUE OF KINDERGARTEN
 IS BEING INVESTIGATED

In an annual review of the kinder garten work which has just been is- sued by the Commissioner of educa- ton, Miss A. M. Winchester one Of the best informed kindergarten work CTS in the country makes the follow ing statement:
 "For several years investigations have been undertaken in different cities for the purpose of ascertaining the advantage gained by children with Kindergarten training over non-kin- dergarten children. The emphasis in these investigations has been plac- ed usually upon the rate Of speed with which the children make the success sive grades
 "The fallacy of drawing conclus- ions from such surveys" says Miss Winchester, "is manifest at once. lt is well nigh impossible to gauge the speed accurately. because in the first grade both Kindergarten and non kindergarten children are placed to. gether. and by the rule of uniformity which seems necessary in school sys. tens. the teacher unconsciously stan- dardizes the progress of her class. The laggards are brought up by dint l of conscientious work. and the for. ward ones are held in leash, SO that by Che time the fifth or sixth grade is reached, whatever special impetus may have resulted from the childs Kindergarten training has ceased to be measurable.
 "In any event, the permanent val ue of the Kindergarten has little ii any connection with the number of years required to so through the grades, The kndergarten's concern Is with the content of the child rath CT than with the mere economy oi time. Power to think and do, a ten dency to assume right attitudes to- wards life. and ability to work and play happily with one's fellows these are the results of training based upon the belief in education by devel opment."
 Miss Winchester points out that an investigation about to be undertaken by the International Kindergarten Union in this field will involve mak ing a study in several different cit ies Of one set of children who entered Kindergarten five years ago and an other set in the same school who did not attend Kindergarten. The rec ords of these children will be exam ined with reference to their interest attitudes. spirit toward one another and with reference to their proficien cy in school studies. The quality and spirit of the teachers of these chil dren as well as the quality and spirit of the homes from which the children come will be taken into considera tion.

An expenditure Of S50.O00 in con verting the steamers Spokane and City Of Seattle into oil burners is being planned by officials Of the Pacific Coast Steamship Company The work. it Is announced. is to be done this winter following the close Of Che summer tourist season
 Although the same interests that control the Pacific Coast Steamship Company own coal mines and railroad facilities for delivering the coal, oil has not only been found cheaper but more convenient as fuel for the com pany's steamers.
