JUST A LITTLE cASE.-We have
said something before about the Dali
las Free Legal Aid bureau. Here's
another example of how it works.
A certain dealer in cows sold cow
to poor woman under guarantee
that it would give three gallons of
milk. 1t gave one. After protesting
to the dealer, who laughed at her, in
desperation she went to the city free
legal aid bureau. ..
Investigation was made as con-
scientiously as if there were a big
cash fee involved. Numerous victims
of the sharper, who, it was disclosed,
made business of misrepresenting
COWS, were unearthed. The city bu-
reau took all their cases. The first
step was to advise the newspapers
and they warned the public and re-
fused the fraud advertisements.
The COW dealer is anxious now to
make good his victims losses and
keep good himself, if the free legal
aid bureau lets up on him.
A little thing in itself, that free le-
gal aid bureau, but it will in the long
run accomplish more toward the
wedding out of the harpies who prey
upon the poor and unsophisticated
than a dozen police forces.

BE JOYFUL.

BE JOYFUL. - OF course, San
Francisco has right to feel proud
of the fact that it closed its exposi-
ton with balance of over $2,000,-
900 on the credit side of the ledger
Not only may San Francisco con-
graduate itself, but all America
should be jubilant, for there's great
deal more cause for felicitation than
merely a big cash balance for San
Francisco.
The success of the big show was
largely due to the fact that thou
sands of wealthy American saw"
their country for the first time In
1914 $3O0,000,O00 was spent by
Americans seeing Europe first" In
1915 practically nothing was so
spent, for which praise the war lords.
For many years the press of this
country has waged campaign urg-
ing our rich classes to see America
first, yet it took a war to get them
to do it. Now, however, that they
have done so and have learned to
their establishment that their own
country has more to offer than Eu-
rope, we may look for a decided
dropping off in foreign travel, even
after peace is declared.
Next year San Diego. with the
choicest of the exhibits from the San
Francisco fair added to the multitu-
dinous attractions of its own beau
tiful exposition, will be the magnet
to draw the people of the east across

causes; those who have never fully re-
sponded to the grade work and those
who have truancy and mischief making
to live down.
One hundred and ninety-nine boys
and girls, ranging in ages from six TO
twenty years. here find the enjoyment
that Is the inherent right of childhood,
and. while they are kept busy being
happy, they are also taught many use
full things that may help them to be
self-sunpporting in after life
OF this number the larger portion,
11e, are typical children, and. Of the
balance, all but fourteen are of the
ungraded schools. by many called the
incorrigibies- The little group of four
teen are non-graded. since they neither
require the supervision of the upgraded
nor the same class of instruction as
the atypical pupils. These children are
In reality little misfits. whose places in
the school plan have not as yet been
determined.
In the atypical class are included the
children who for some cause or other
are two or more years behind the school
grade in which their age would ordi-
narily place them. Their slowness is
due to many causes. Under the train
ing and the optimistic surroundings Of
the schools all of the children are ben
sfted, and some improve greatly. This
n found to be true chiefly among the
youngsters who are behind their classes

that is institutional or necessarily
custodial, is not admitted to these
schools. The classes. when possible
are kept down to fifteen to each teach
er, and they are to be found in various
parts of the city. in the regular schooI
buildings and in rented private houses
equipped for this purpose. There are
ungraded classes in the Gales and the
curtis schools, while the Samuel F. b.
Morse School has two classes or eacn
type. in all about forty children AT
present. The enrolment In the un-
GRADED is always heaviest during the
three winter months. The bad weatner
reacts upon the conduct, 1t is claimed:
Other atypical schools are located AT
o5 9Th street southeast. SO 9Th street
southwest, 1922 MARYLAND avenue
northeast, 1907 33d street george
town. and in Tenleytown.
When a teacher in the regular scnoois
conclli51es that one of her pupils needs
the atypical training. the child is put
through the most complete and eiabo-
rate tests, in order that correct dag
nosis of it's physical condition ana It's
exact mental age may be ascertained
Its previous record in the schools is
called for, it's parents are interviewed
and every possible fact concerning the
chiId's life is looked into as far as pos
sible, SO that the teacher may know
just where to begin the training
Seventeen distinctly different tests

at the Gales School There also is an
ungraded school. The coaching school
has been found a blessing by many a
little foreigner whose imperfect knowl-
edge of English retarded his progress
With the atypical children optimism
is the prevailing thought in the pro-
gram of the work, for these children. all
of whom are more or less defective in
their mental development, have known
little but negativeness all Of their
lives. At home and at school they
quickly learn that they are in some
way different from their mates. They
know that they are behind their classes,
and a settled apathy descends upon
them, which nothing shakes until they
find themselves in another type Of
school, where constant encouragement
and liberal praise stimulate an effort
The graded teacher may in kindly
sympathy frequently omit to call upon
the slow child. in order to spare him
the humiliation of failing. but her very
well meant omission drives home to
the cropping little mind the fact that
she knows he could not answer cor
rectly. At home he early learns that
he is slow, awkward and stupid, and
80 the negation of his environment en-
folds him and adds itH blight to the
one which birth or circumstance has
fastened upon him.
There are various grades of atypical
children. and the low grade, the type
