Fatal Cunning Accident

Frank Rust, aged 18 years, son
of a blacksmith at Dover, the first
victim of the cunning season,
died at Delaware Hospital on
Sunday of blood poison resulting
from a charge of shot wounding
him in the right leg just above the
knee on Wednesday last. Young
Rust, Maurice and Frank Hartnett
and Irving Boggs, three Dover
youths, left in an automobile on
Wednesday to hunt squirrels
about five miles from town. One
of the party tripped in a thicket
and his gun was discharged, the
load entering Rust's leg. He lost
much blood and was sent to the
hospital for treatment.

child in bed by half-past eight
should not have to be called more
than once, at half-past six, to arise
and prepare his lessons. By so
doing he will be acquiring the
habit of early rising-a great help
toward punctuality which is un-
doubtedly one of the essentials to
success in whatever vocation he
may engage. There are men who
always fail in whatever they un-

always behind time. Dear friends,

HOME STUDY AND
SCHOOL WORK
PAPER RECENTLY READ BY 4 NEWARK
TEACHER

PARDON this aggression Dut Cne
Fastening of the day when the un
graded, rural school is replaced by
the centralized school is very near
to my heart. How glad | am that
the right people and especially the
women of our State are turning
their attention to the matter.
When intelligent women give their
support to any cause, even in con-
servative Delaware, results are
bound to follow.
When children reach the fourth
grade, they are approximately ten
years Of age, and should have a
short, definite lesson assigned for
home study. The assigned les
sons should be entirely prepared
at home, because a careless child
will dwadle and say to himself,
"Oh well, I'll have time in school
if don't get it done here" Books
taken home should not be allowed
opened in school more than five
minutes before recitation.
No lessons given for home study
should be such as require much as
sistance. 1t may be that a child
is so circumstanced that he has no
access to scholarly help; and in
that case an unreasonable burden
is imposed upon him and the task
will not be done. If he has access
to such help, the influence of an
intelligent home will produce far
more effect in ordinary intercourse
than if father or mother is reduced
to the role of a school assistant.
Home has its own sacredness,
and its own appropriate forms Of
training. School exercises should
not encrOach too far upon the
home. The teacher should state
the aim of the lesson so clearly,
definitely and simply that each
member Of the class can fully
grasp just what is to be done.
Aimless work is shiftless work. So
much for the teacher-now for
the parents. In trying to recall
some places where | have been an
interested observer of home
"studying," | had some amusing
recOlleCtionS. The pen of Bill
Nye could perhaps do justice to
some of the scenes.
Why is it that the lead-pencil-
innocent-looking ARTICLES so
elusive; and why, after being
tracked to it's lair, has it such a
brittle point? | have witnessed
after much wrestling with dull
knives Of various kinds, the razor
of the head of the house being
! finally brought forth by a desper.
ate mother, to remedy the defec.
tive pencil point. After a few
minutes of pretended work broken
by pleas for help or a drink OF
water, callers appeared or the
child became sleepy and retired tc
the couch for nap. Turning the
leaves, looking at the pictures
sharpening pencils or listening tc
neighborhood gossip is not study
A child should have a reasonably
quiet corner to himself, where hi
can concentrate his attention anC
not be asked to run to the store Of
to bring up the coal, until his tasl
is completed.
| am confident from my expert
ence with Newark parents, tina
they are careful to see that theiI
children do have favorable condi
tions for home study.

Newark post., 1915-09-08

York City's powers that be" in
the school world, say that one and
one-half hours should be spent in
home study by pupils of seventh
and eighth grades. 1t seems to me
utter nonsense to specify the
amount of time for each pupil of a
grade. The task which one child
can master in half hour may re-
quire twice or three times as long
for one of his classmates. | asked
each of my pupils few days ago,
to notice just how long he spent in
preparing the next days work.
The replies ranged from twenty
five minutes to two hours-aver-
age, forty-five minutes.
The question, it seems to me, is
~ot so much-do they learn the
next days lesson in a given time,
as they are acquiring the power
of concentration, learning self-ac-
tivity, forming the habit Of study
in preparation for eighth grade
and high school tasks?
Experience has taught me that
it is better not to assign arithme-
tic for home work. Doubtless
some present are familiar with
the story of the boy who, by the
united efforts of himself and par
ents, solved difficult problem
and went happily away to school.
On his return the mother saw that
his mood had changed. "Why,
son, what's the matter; wasn't
YOUR solution correct?" ooh no,
we left out two 'ands' and a there
fore and teacher gave me zero"
Fortunately we are more than a
decade beyond the day of good old
DR.. Brooks and his 'ands' and
"therefores" but too often the
mistaken kindness of home help
ers in the solving of problems de-
feats the principal aims Of arith-
metical work-perseverance and
independent thinking. Spelling
and physiology, or reading and
history assigned for home work,
seem to give best results. Occa-
sionally the will come pleadingly
to a teacher, an intensely nervous
little girl or a boy with high fore
head and brilliant eyes, asking for
the privilege of taking home all
his books. Now what is to be
done? This, in my judgment is
where the parents should be
warned of the danger Of over
study; but | have found that par
entail pride in the possession of a
precocious child is very strong
and does not always take kindly to
the warning. Even a hint from
the family physician, at the teach
er's suggestion, does not have any
appreciable effect. However, par
ents may take comfort in the fact
that the majority of boys in our
grammar grades do not overstudy
either at home or at school, of
their own volition.
As each class is promoted to my
room | try to encourage the chill,
dren to do their home work in the
morning, rather than in the even,
ing and some respond. Who does
not deplore the prevalence of de-
fective eyesight among children
Have we not read again and agair
that the light should fall upon the
book or paper over the left shoul
der? Are we careful to see thai
this rule is obeyed? About a yeal
ago a famous occulist told me tha
teachers and pupils are burning
their eyesight out working by ar
tificial light. Again, is it not true
that better work can be done wher
body and mind are rested? Th'
old adage, early to bed ant
early to rise, makes men healthy
and wealthy and wise," is just al
, true today as when first said, man,

The trouble at the mine Of the

Wheeling appears to be- shaping it
self to the satisfaction Of all concern

Several conferences were held this
week with the sub district okcers,
state President John Moore and the
management of the mine, with the
result that much of the bitterness
that has crept into the controversy
has been eliminated, and a working
understanding for future conferences
has been arranged.
With the management 81 the mine and
the omcials of the organizations pen
for friendly discussion of the trou-
BILE, prospects of an early settlement
are better at the present time than
since the scale was signed couple
Of months ago. The Johnson COM
pany is the only concern on the Ohio
side that has failed to sign the scale

dealt fairly with the employees for
