tended seems not to be affording the
opportunity for full development of
to do is, Of course, very vivid. The
first step is to determine, by q frank
talk with the principal or with any
teacher who may really know the child,
what the chances are of imm mediate i'm
proyement or adjustment. BY far the
greatest number Of educators are open
ard honest, and will say for the well
fare of q child just what they think
regardless of any real or fancied effect
upon themselves.
Schools Employ Psychologists
If there is little promise that the
evident capabilities of John, or Jane
will be fully exercised, the next thing
Cor perhaps the first) is to make sure
Of impressions by finding the facts
through an actual measurement Of the
child's intelligence. Though the better
private schools all have psychologists
give these tests before they finally
accept pupils, just as does Columbia
University. it is also possible to be put
in touch otherwise with those whose
profession it is to do this The City
Of New York employs such psycholo-
gists, as do other large systems. From
smaller places, however, information as
to those capable Of giving the tests
may be had through local colleges, or
through the Teachers College Of Co.
lumbia University.
When father and mother have deter
tcrmined that son or daughter really
has the superior intelligence they have
believed. and that the present school
or class is inadequate, and is likely in
this particular year to remain 80, there
still exists the great problem of how
to find the right school environment
This may not be successfully done
just by catalogues or by agencies. As
the goal is the most important which
any family can seek to attain, the Civ
inP of the best opportunity to develop
life OK useful service, 80 the price
Of success is painstakirg search.
The quest may be narrowed at the
start by the purse. just as in every
thing else, or even more so. it is true
IN education, that you are likely to get
what you pay for II you want SO
many dollars worth Of instruction, you
may, perhaps. buy it, The smaller the
number Of dollars, the smaller the pay.
ment Of the teachers, the less to be de-
voted to equipment, to repairs and to
maintenance, and consequently the
less there Is to give of fine instruc-
tion and of proper surroundings. Ex-
ceptions to this general rule are those
comparatively few schools which have
been financially endowed. They alone
in these days can afford to keep their
rates comparatively low.
In this need for money tho private
schools are at ono with tire public
schools: No greater impetus has ever
been afforded to education in general

Private Schools for Children
of Unusual Intelligence

than the recent recognition that teach
ers should be paid living wage, and
more. Though in private schools they
have almost always averaged more than
in public schools, the Lockwood Dom
ohue bill, passed by the New York
Legislature last spring, raises the
standard everywhere. In consequence
advanced in many instances as much
as 80 per cent.
No Bargains in Schooling
Rule out at once, therefore, any
idea that exceptional educational op-
portunity may be had at cheap rates
There are no real bargains in school
ing. They way to 60 Mt this matter
is to determine how much additional
much you are willing to sacrifice for
, your children. Only by personal in
spection and by investigation of the
schools which attract can you judge
whether they appear to be worth the
price they charge
THAT takes time and effort" you
are thinking. Yes, but can you give
less to get your own son or daughter
into the right educational environ
mont?
A few basic questions which may
be suggested:
"Does the school measure the intel
ligence of all who apply, and group
its pupils into opportunity classes 2"
lis the teaching staff mature, schol-
arly and well trained?"
"Is the equipment modern, whole
some and attractive :"
"Is there plenty Of playing space
in the open and proper means Of physi-
cal development
Are the classrooms SO designed that
groups may be kept small-twenty-
five or SO the outside limit?"
"ls the spirit of the place. the at
mosphers. simple. straightforward, un-
affected ?"
DO the parents in general, not one
or two, think we'll Of the work."
1t these points are satisfactorily de-:
termined, it is safe to say that John
or Jane could not have from father or
mother finer boon than the oppor-
tunity to enter such school, 1t is
worth all the additional effort and
stinting it may cost.
