been given to this matter, and this
Fall in most large cities special classes
will be opened for the supernormal
child in which he will be under the
direction of special teachers who will
aid rather than retard his advance
ment. This work will be expert
mental at first and cannot be expected
to meet all the needs, although it is
the beginning of an educational re-
form
Psychologists divide school children
into three classes: supernormal,
bright or gifted; normal or average;
and backward. subnormal or def
cient All courses of study were
planned or the normal child who nat
urally represents the greatest number.
Santa Barbara, Cal, has recently en-
ployed the Binet test to gauge the
school children of that city. Accord
ing to that, % per cent. of school
children were supernormal, A per
cent. normal and "a per cent. subnor-
NAL in varying degrees.
This proves that the present system
of infieXible grading is just only to
IA per cent. of the school children.
The old country school gave far
greater advantages to the gifted child
than the best equipped city institu-
ton. The boy who learned the multi
plication table by hearing other chill
dren recite IL, was not kept back un-
til the most stupid student in the class
had mastered 1t. He was allowed to

lecture upon the Fourth Dimension,
the most abstruse problem in mathe-
mates, is the son of DIR. Boris Sidis,
a specialist In mental and nervous
diseases. DR.. Sidis takes the stand
that disease and nervousness result
from worry, emotional excitement
and lack of interest in the work at

we do not teach children any
thing in infancy for fear of override
veloping their BRAIN" said DR.. Sidis
in a recent address, when in reality
the brain. like the body, gains strength
and health from use. After the
child's natural interest has been dulled
and his brain rendered less active
than nature intended, because 1t was
not used in the beginning, we put him
in school and confront him with a
Heterogeneous collection of facts which
do not interest him. We force him
to study. We cram him and feed him
and stuff him like a goose. We ex-

faculties that he requires a commits
sion to feed and care for him when
he has arrived at maturity. Psy-
biologists claim that the impractical
tendencies of genius are entirely due
to lack of general education. The
well-rounded education, which de-
velops the intellect as a whole, will
not detract from the special gift. 1t
is more likely to strengthen 1t because
all the faculties are made stronger.
A number of other gifted children
are now in the limelight as examples
of the possibilities of judicious educa-
ton. Herbert Weiner, who recently
received the degree of Doctor of Phil
osophy at eighteen, graduated from
Tufts College at the age of fourteen.
Three younger Weiner children, now
being educated after the same meth
DDS, are expected to distinguish them
selves equally. William James Sidis,
who entered Harvard University at
eleven and year later delivered a

forge ahead for himself and If he Gig
ured clear through the 'rithmetic''
that term he was encouraged by his
teacher. 1t frequently happens that
a country boy transferred to the city
school will be several grades ahead
for his age, because of the individual
liberty he has been allowed.
Divided Into Two Classes
The supernormal children are di-
vided into two classes: The first class
shows exceptional brightness upon all
subjects The other may be only
normal as regards most subjects, but
Will exhibit one or two special gifts
or talents. The education of one of
these classes differs materially from
that of the other. The special talent
may be in a single direction and need
broadening to render it of greatest
practical value. The child with a
special gift, such as music or art,
should not have that gift so highly
developed at the expense of his other

to attend this private school she
would have lost two full years at the
most important period of her life be-
cause the public school of her city
made no provision for her exceptional
mentality.
Many Such Cases Found
In every city such cases are found
and educators are at last recognizing
the economic waste of retarding the
gifted child to make him fit into a
course of study designed for the or
dinary child. Much time and money
have been spent upon the develop
ment of the backward child Special
teachers have been provided in the
attempt to bring him up TO normal
standards. The supernormal or
gifted child, who has long been recog-

asset, has been neglected in this coun-
try, and his special talents wasted and
ignored.
