unnecessary, for il is possible to give

1t is possible for children to learn that

Danger in Making Exceptions.
Children love novelty so much, IN

everything that is out Of the ordinary.
Sometimes, however, they quickly be-

A friend out shopping with her little
girl met me on crowded street on a
warm day. After talking Of nothing
in particular for a few moments she
told me half-apologetically that they

She explained her hesitation by saying:

children drinking ice cream soda
And, Of course, / do not-as a steady
diet. There are no doubt many chill
dren who consume too much OF the
colored and sweetened juices that are
sold under various fancy names. And
there is no doubt that children should
learn to quench their thirst with water.
II is also true that if you give them
chance they will nag and nag until
you yield the nickel or dime that the
soda water man wants. But for all
that it is perfectly legitimate TO satisfy
the taste for the cold and the sweet

LAUDS PATRIOTISM
OF COUNTRY'S JEWS
Hugo, Secretary of State, Chief
Speaker at Free Sons of
Judah Convention.

No class of people has accomplished
more in this country or has greater
faith in and love for the Stars and
Stripes than the Jews, according to
Francis NJ Hugo, Secretary of State,
in a speech yesterday at the twenty
fifth annual convention of the Free
Sons of Judah, at the Central Opera
House
Borough President Marcus NJ. Marks
talked of the work that the Free Sons
of Judah, with a membership Of $4,000,
had done for the last twenty-five years.
In bidding the organization welcome
on behalf of the city administration,
Mr.. Marks said that there was more
room for more Jews in New York.
Mr.. Marks's work as an administra-
tive officer was praised by Samuel S.
Koeng, Republican county chairman.
Judge Louis d. Gibbs, of the Bronx
County Court, reviewed the part the
Jews of The Bronx had taken in the
activities Of the Free Sons of Judah.
Judge Gibbs made an imprisoned APP
peal for the prosecuted Jews of East
ern Europe and asked that the Jews
of this country be ready to extend aid
to their brethren after the war IN case
OF large emigration.
The Free Sons of Judah have paid
out S2,50O,000 in death, sickness and
unemployment benefits since their or
ganization, according to Louis Gold
stein, their president

interesting. so begin with these. secure
the child's interest, and never fear but
the matter of technique will follow.
In the settlement a new method of
music teaching has been developed
which leads to the study Of the body
and the coordination of mind and
muscles which should lessen the time
required in daily practice, and it is
| extraordinary what can be done.
Take the violin, for instance. How
often has it occurred that a person
almost mentally deficient can be more
expressive on the instrument than one
so sensitive ard refined that the very
clements which would make him a fine
musician are source OF difficulty!
There must be something that keeps
US all from doing what we want to do.
Every expression is made through the
use Of the body. BY realizing this and
trying to bring about a coordination
between the mind and muscles we have
gotten at the very health of the child.
lie must be taught to sit and stand
right, to place his hands on the keys
Alright. Wonderful things can be done
in this way, and instead of music being
Just a means Of entertainment il can
be the means of lifting out from the
body that submerged self which needs
expression.
We are not at all interested in the
talented child. because the talented
child will always attract attention, like
the possessor of physical beauty. But
since the world depends upon the de-
velopment of the normal child it is
this one that attracts us. Such lit
tie one can be made to play well. We
have proven this time and time again.
There is really no such thing as tone
deafness. You can teach so much
through music. There are 80 many
possibilities that it is a pity they
cannot be worked out faster. And, it
is our firm belief, that il is not the
brilliant musician who should be high
priced; il is the devoted earnest teach
or who is willing to work on what the
child brings him.
Here enters the serious question of
the teacher and the child One type

out against the irregularity of the
proceeding it was an unheard of
thing to 90 to sleep in one place and
wake up somewhere else. But father
called attention to the fact that peO-
pie go to sleep in a railway car IN one
city and wake up in another city many
miles away. That was interesting;
and Alfred fell into the game of play
ing that he was to take journey
from distant city, and was to wake
I'D in his own bed in the morning.
This worked very we'll 5 a trick.
But II that were repeated too fire.
auently, it would soon break up any
sense of order-or rather. the new
way might gradually replace the old
order.
That is indeed the danger in max
ing EXCEPTIONS; but we must not be
deferred by the danger. We must vary
the routine as need arises and thus
teach the children that rule is not
so .ething absolute, put convenience.
We must teach them. also. to be the
masters of their habits, and not the
slaves. Children must retain as long
AS possible that peculiar power of
youth the ability TO change from one
set of habits to another. With ad-
vancing years and judgment, this
means the ability 10 use discretion
without rejecting the benefits Of reg
ularity.

child is one often made so through
slavery.
The first thing to do with the din
corrigible" child is to turn his mind
into channels of interest. to aid him in
discovering a personal ideal, and music
is one of the greatest aids in such a
direction. There is a subtle sense in
an art expression that aids the human
being in realizing his ideal. To awaken
the beauty and appreciation Of har-
mony Is more important than to give
the child a so-called thorough educa-
ton.
When it is said that music will in
fuence the unmanageablc child II is
not meant that mere listening ic all
that is required, though there have
been great changes when such children
have been placed in surroundings
where music is feature. Teach the
child to play. All children want to
play on some instrument. This may
seem exaggerated, but notice the little
ones inclination in tender ears to
play on some toy instrument. A baby
loves TO sit by the piano and finger
the keys. II is only when the child
grows Older that either the lack of an
instrument, or through making
drudpery of music by old-fashiored
methods, this desire for musical ex-
preston is crushed.
It is necessary that the whole idea
Of music teaching be changed and the
terrible custom OF subiecting the child
to hard daily practice when 1t can do
nothing but make a most horrid noise
should be stopped, for it is subjecting
the child TO the most nerve-racklng
physical torture-not to say anything
about its neighbors.
You cannot take child, good, bad
or Indifferent, put him to work at the
piano with an utterly uncongenlal
teacher, make him practise certain set
hours a day set scales in set way
and bring forth good results. Either
YOU are going to produce a spiritless
good" child or a rebel. Scales are
tuneless affairs representing to the
child nothing but drudgery. Chords
that form harmonic instruction are

Regularity in Daily Routine Essential.
With very young children Il is essen
tial TO have a fixed regularity IN the
daily routine, if it can possibly be
carried out. This is necessary, be-
cause il is the only way Of getting
children into the habit Of disposing of
the daily necessities in routine way.
In the mater Of eating, sleeping and
dressing, in putting away toys and
clothes, in table manners and in the
details Of courteous conduct, the rou-
time must be observed, with never an
execution. 1t is apparently the only
wav Of making sure of the habits.
You know the saying about being
offered an inch and taking a yard,
Well. that seems 20 be particularly true
of children on the way to learning the
rplcs OF hfe's game. A change from
tho ordinary means license to ignore
tho rule. During this period, there
fore. every departure from the routine
inyolves serious setback. When
habits are being acquired, no excep-
ticn should be permitted. But after

Not only has this work been done with
children drawn from the neighborhood
that surrounds the Music School Set
Element, but with little ones who live
in luxury uptown, where the air Is
sweet and clean, and in homes where
they are surrounded with beautiful
things, for the incorrigible child is
found not alone in the slums-she lives
in mansions as well.
The child Of this type is one in whom
ideals have been crushed or suppressed.

These are brave words. viii Mr..
Churchill answer few questions which
his speech suggests?
Is not the demand OF women for
wider responsibilities a part Of the
spirit Of the tines?
Why does Mr.. Churchilps party in
the Board of Education oppose giving
equal opportunities TO married women
in the schools?
Is the repressive policy Of Mr..
Churchill and his followers based upon
knowledge of objective facts or upon
Assumptions Of inner consciousness"?
Does not the Gary system fulfil Mr.
Churchill's ideal of a democratic sys-
tenn of education?
Why has Superintendent Writ been
so meagrely supported in comparison
70 the support given Superintendent
Ettinger?
If Mr.. Churchill believes that n cur
riculum should be based upon study OF
conditions, why has he failed to sup
port the vocational education survey
which has been recommended TO him
by Professor John Dewey, Superin-
tendents, Ettinger. Haaren and Strau-
benmdller, and, believe, Schneider
and Writ?
II Mr.. Churchill believes in justice
for teachers, why was principal,
found guilty OF an error Of judgment,
let off without so much as a reprimand,
on the ground that he had broken no
bylaw, when a teacher under similar
circumstances was suspended for eight
months?
