BACKWARD CHILDREN.

e An educator who specializes in the treatment OF
backward children, has recently investigated the
number of such pupils in the schools of city of
about SO 600 people. She found that about two per
cent of the children of school needed to join
some class where they could have special attention.
on account of their sub-normal capacities If they
kept with ordinary pupils they fall away be-
hind, become discouraged, and usually drop out Of
school. Many of them become refractory and in
clined to law breaking.
Intelligent parents wish to have such children
have all possible attention. But ignorant fam
have ordinary ability, and they often resist attempts
to place them in special schools
If a child of that character has home where
him in a special class of backward children But
if he is getting little good training at home, he will
go from bad to worse unless he gets special
attention.
In many families the father and mother do not
work together One parent will feel the need of
action to correct such a childs faults. while the
other win conceal the misdemeanors of the child
and encourage him to tell les to get out of his
difficulties
Many of these sub-nOrmal children found in
families where parent at least weak
mentally Teachers say the proportion of these
children to increase. They constitute prob
lem that should not be ignored. Most of these
youngsters, if given hand work in special class,
at least learn to do simple task well, to
cooperate with others, and to obey the laws of the
community. A great deal of cost and loss be
avoided by providing special treatment for children
Of this type
