A delightful letter from Miss Gladys
Jones tells of her experiences at a
normal institute In Canon City, Colo
RADIO where Miss Elsie Chambers was
one Of the instructors. Miss Cham
bers is one Of the Kiowa county teach
ers. He correlation OF industrial arts
with books has brought her work to
the notice OF the entire state. Below

at the office OF Mrs. w. II. Baker, SUI
perintendent OF schools OF Pueblo

Miss Chambers is principal Of the
Hasweil school Kiowa county.
She has an original way OF teaching
such subjects, etc, by the aid OF pic
torial drawings. Even such subjects
as physiology. civil government, soci-
ology, and economies are handled In
the same unique amer.
Among the articles on exhibition are
two miniature farm wagons, complete
IN every detail. They were made by
fourth and ninth grade pupils and were
whitfield out OF the wood from an or
binary packing case. Both are paint
ed, one red and the other a bright
green with white trimming. They are
equipped with whiffle trees, tongues
reaches and everything else necessary
to compose a complete farm wagon.
Miss Chambers has a system of II.
Illustrating all subjects under study
thus lending a variety commonly alb.
sent.
For instance, In the study OF geog
raphy she has drawn a series Of maps
showing the climatic peculiarities, pre.
oipitation, produce, o~c., OF the coun.
tries designated upon them. Each
map has a key" by which the pupil
may ascertain the specific piece OF
knowledge sought.
In teaching civil government, Miss
Chambers causes hor pupils to draw
pictorial diagrams. She Is able 10

unique feature of the six acts Is that
of the Paldrons, one man and two

skill. especially by one of the women.
are in every sense extraordinary. The
performers jump a ladder of lighted
lamps. resting on the tops of the
shades and thence throwing SOM

their work is the balancing of the man

support of him with one hand in the
air. although he is much larger and
heavier than she. Burhams singing

tional offering with their bell ringing
They use bells ranging from one to
