, he wants to understand them 1t is
just as essential for teacher to get
into the natural play spirit of the
child She must learn to correlate
that play spirit with the business of
learning something"
With all her delight in the humor-
GUS quirks of childhood goes a love
for the children that is never gush-
ing, but always frank and open.
Her books, of which she has written
nearly forty for use in elementary
grades, combine the teaching Of
reading and literature with enjoy
ment.
"Chidren have to live just as
much as grown-ups." she says. $50,
why shouldn't their hours in school
be happy? You can't get child to
grow mentally and spiritually unless
you get his imagination at work.
and you can't get his imagination
working until you set him free to
wander mentally among figures and
names with which he is familiar"
Miss Bryce's books abound with
quaint fables of animals. Bunny
and the bear are not discarded; they
are made to play their part in the
development Of the imagination.
That children are instinctively
rhythmic in thought and action is
made the basis for part of Miss
Bryce's system. Her desk is piled
high with booklets of rhymes made
by pupils either individually or in CO.
operation with their fellow scholars.
A kindergarten Orchestra
In the kindergarten pupils are
formed into an orchestra. Their first
lesson in music is to rap on the floor
with sticks to the tune of the school
piano. At the end of the year the
sticks have been replaced with tri-
angles, drums, bell plates and tone
tubes.
Last year Cleveland kindergar-
ten orchestra of 500 played before
group of visiting educators.
Recently Miss Bryce has added to
her accomplishments the writing of
pageants. Her work "The Light"
recently performed by hundreds of
Cleveland school children before Ma
tional Educational Association rep
resentatives, has been reproduced
throughout the entire country. She
is now considering proposition to
write pageant for the Pilgrim Me-
mortal celebration.
What Miss Bryce thinks of the
teaching problem of the country is
clearly shown in a recent statement
that theory is running away with
elementary education"
Miss Bryce is a demonstration of
applied pedagogical psychology"
said DR.. Spaulding once of her.
What others talk of doing she
does"
what she will think up next we
never know" said one of the super
visors. "Whenever there is special
Dit of work to be done. we all 20 to
Miss Bryce"
Is Not Academic
There is nothing of the type" of
academic woman about her. She is
-eserved until put into action by
question or suggestion. Then she
becomes human dynamo. She is
approachable to all visitors, and will
remain after hours to complete her
interrupted work.
II there be trouble to be smoothed
over, her advice is sought without
question. She is welcomed in the
schools by the children, and teachers
never fear her visits of supervision.
'Why should we?" teacher
asked; 1--WE are always the better for
her help and suggestions"
Miss Bryce will complete her work
in Cleveland this spring, and take |
up her new duties at Yale in the fall. |
New-York tribune., 1920-05-16


Bryce, assistant superin
tendent OF elementary education in
Cleveland public schools, who has
just been appointed the first woman
professor at Yale University, to oc-
cupy the position Of assistant pro-
fessor of elementary education In
the new department. recently organ
lied with DR.. Frank E. Spaulding,
Superintendent Of Schools in Cleve-
land, as it's head.
Eyes; fairy tales are real" she
said; Especially in the lives of chill
dren. The element of faith and dar-
ing necessary to belief in the un-
real is the r>ost stimulating thing a
child or a grown-up can possess"
Miss Bryce's theory of education
is not limited to a belief in fairy
tales as a vital element in teaching,
but it is illustrative of her belief
that the child has life to live as
child should and should not be
trained merely for mature life.
Her Own Fairy Story
In sense, her own career has the
aspect Of a fairy tale come true.
With no thought of equality Of sexes
IN educational posts, she has come to
position which places her among a
group of educators by tradition
chosen from among men.
She was surprised when questioned
regarding her reaction to the ap-
pointment to a faculty entirely COM
posed of men.
"Why, it never occurred TO me
that there was anything unusual
about my appointment she said; 81
have been so used to work with men
and women in the educational field
that / did not question at all the
popularity of my appointment Both
sexes have their individual contribu
tlons to make to education"
For a moment she broke off her
conversation to greet one of her
supervisors who stood in the door
way.
"He's quizzing me about myself"
she remarked, with a smile. "Can't
you help me out?"
The supervisor did later, pouring
out a tale of confidence that left no
doubt as to the reason for Miss
Bryce's appointment to the Yale
post.
"She's just human; that's ALL" the
supervisor said. "Whenever a prob
lem arises in our teaching Miss
Bryce settles it with two things in
mind--the humanness of the child
and the practical results of our
methods.
"The child comes first with her be-
cause she loves and believes in chill
dren."
Taught in Passaic Schools
First teacher. Miss Bryce has
remained teacher. Now it is super
visors she instructs, and it will be
prospective supervisors over whom
she will have control at Yale.
She was discovered" by DR..
Spaulding while he was superintend-
ent at Passaic, N. J. At that time
late in 1o04-she was teaching in
the elementary grades of Passaic
schools.
1T was an inspiration to go into
her Classroom" said DR.. Spaulding.
"She had caught the vision of real
teaching that, no years Of pedagogi-
cal theory could impart. What is
more, she has been able to help
others to do the same kind of teach

Work on French Fears

Such Frenchmen, all moderate
Frenchmen, in fact, are powerless,
however, in the presence of the Ger
man manner. If Germany means to
resume her old course, then French
men are ready to take all precau-
tions, all insurance, all safeguards.
And the German continues to do
precisely the things which are best
calculated to alarm Frenchmen and
confute American and British pro-
ponents Of the principle of modera
tion in dealing with Germany.
AS to the Treaty of Versailles
itself, it is crammed with unen-
forceable provisions. 1t contains
much that every one would be glad
to see modified in application or per
haps simplified. There is vast
effort to interfere with internal af-
fairs in Germany on the economic
side which is unenforceable and
ought not to be enforced.
The treaty itself is like any other
complicated and untried piece of
legislation. Nothing is more certain
than the fact that in practice it

Our Candidate for
The Legislature

The Republicans of Fremont coun-
ty commend to the voters at the cleo
tion November 2, Joseph T. Mclean
Of Florence, for representative in the
Twenty-third General Assembly. M.
Mclean is not SO well known to t
people of Canon City as soii-c o. ...s
other candidates on the party ticket,
but those who have made his ac-
quaintance since the beginning of the
campaign are very favorab'y i'm
pressed with him as a gentleman, ani
feel assured that, If elected, he will
make member of the Legislature of
which the citizens of the county will.
have no reason to be ashamed.
Mr.. Mclean has for a number of
years past bee nengaged in the insur
ance business in Florence, and is
highly esteemed in that community
for his sterling characteristics, his in
terest in public matter, his patriotic
citizenship and his splendid qualities
as a friend al ceiShbor Mr.. Nc
Lean formerly resided in the coal
camps Of the county and his popular
ity among the people there assure him
hearty support at the polls there
Broad in his intelligence, keen in his
understanding of political pdoblems
and of careful, conservative judg-
ment, he possesses all of the requis-
ties demanded for the place he seeks.
A man, whom Mr.. Mclean met in
Canon City few days ago for the
first time, remarked in the hearinf
The Record reporter shortly after
wards: 'Mr. Mclean seems to me
to be unusually level-headed and in
telligent and shall take pleasure in
voting for him for the Legislature. In
my opinion the people Fremont
county have not nominated a better
man for this office in many years.
OF somewhat retiring disposition
Mr.. Mclean is calm and deliberate
of his opinions AS a result his de
ductions are clear and convincing. He
has no vagaries to exploit and no enc
mics to punish. II chosen to the of
fee to which he aspires he will be-
come a true representative of the peo-
pie and will discharge the duties rest
ing upon him in a sensible and dis
passionate manner.
The bettre one knows Mr.. Mclean
the more thoroughly are his splendid
qualities discerned and understood.
He is a man of high ideals, of gen.
erous, kindly impulses and of the ut
most integrity. A student of political
affairs and versed in all Of the ques-
tions that have been obtruded upon
mankind by the recent war, he is a
type Of the men needed in our law
making bodies in this critical time of
the. country's history.
A vote for Mr.. Mclean on Novem-
ber 2. will be worthily bestowed, and
there are none that support him with
their ballot that will have reason to
regret 1t. Patriotic, clear-minded,
consecrated to duty and Of good judg-
ment, Mr.. Mclean is such a man as
will do honor in the Legislature.

For County Judge
Charles E. Waldo

The county judgeship is a position
that calls for man versed in the law
and Of a judicial mind capable OF
weighing in a wise, legal manner the
problems presented to him for deter
mination. Such a man is Judge
Charles E. Waldo. the Republican can
dtdate for that office. He embodies
TO an ideal degree all of the qualities
that one associates with the position.
and the voters Of Fremont county are
70 be congratulated on having the
privilege OF casting their votes for
such q man.
The Republican party considers it.
self fortunate in securing the consent
of Judge Waldo to make the race for
the county judgeship, and feels as
sured that his candidacy will be ac-
corded a measure of encouragement
and support such as would be given to
but few. IL any. other men within its
ranks. 1t will also strongly COM
mend itself to people Of other politi-
cal organizations, and will attract to
him backing on election day that we
believe will be irresistible.
Judge Waldo needs no press agent
or newspaper encomium to announce
to the people of Fremont county his
fitness for public office. He has re-
sided here so long and has established
by his probity and uprightness rep
utation as a citizen to which we can
neither add nor detract.' Daniel
Webster, in a speech eulogizing the
state of Massachusetts,, once said:
There she stands, she speaks for
herself So 1t is with Judge Waldo.
He has been resident Of the commu-
nifty so many years and has been so
useful and inspiring in his citizenship
as to make anything we might say in
praise of him futile and unnecessary.
His record is known to all, and is one
which the most ambitious might EMU
late to advantage.
Judge Waldo is the nestor of Canon
City's lawyers and his extended expe-
rience in professional life here has
given him familiarity and under
standing of the courts in this county
unequaled, perhaps, by any other man
that ever practiced in them. This
knowledge can not fail to be of ad
vantage to him in the county Judge
b1Ap, anu 10 Il Ol a bpiChdld
administration of its affairs If he is
called to the office for which he has
been nominated.
Personal, biographical matter, relat-
ing to Judge Waldo has not been
sought in this connection as the writer
has no intention of presenting a
sketch of his career. Such thing
is non-essential in a man SO well
known and so highly respected. Suf-
fee to say that he is one of the pio-
neers of the Fremont County Bar As
sociation, and one of the most estim-
able Of its citizens. He has per-
formed yeoman service for the state
and the county in his capacity as
lawyer, and his achievements are in
delibly written in their chronicles. AS
q resident of the community he is
public-sprited; as a neighbor he is
charitable and generous, and as
councillor he is wise and considerate.
No better man could have been named
for the county judgeship. In voting
for Judge Waldo you viii make no
mistake.
