THE REASON
III GWHY!!

After seeing the afternoon
performance and the open
air exhibition outside the
Grand Theatre last evening,
we decided that the attrac-
ton booked for showing last
night, had been grossly mis-
represented. Our policy of
providing only attractions
such as we believe to be
worth the admission, made
it, impossible for US to allow
the public to pay the admis-
sion price as advertised.
| Knowing as we did that the
show was not as represented.
Further, the collection of
funds on the street was not
approved nor authorized by
us. 4B s.sl s1=.= e

is that the progress of the world Is
due to the daring ideas OF youth
and that as one grows older he De
comes more conservative until DIT
old age he views with suspicion ana
disgust any tendency toward change.

among the children and the causes
were discovered.
In one case, girl was found who
was very slow reader. On investi-
cation it was found that she had
spent most of her childhood in China
and now she is progressing rapidly
with a little special attention from
the teacher.
There was another case found of a
boy who was a very slow reader be-
cause he made the sound of every
word in his throat as he read. When
questioned, he said he used to slut
ter, and that accounts for his being
behind his grade in reading. Now
that the cause has been discovered,
this boys parents are being given an
opportunity to learn how to help him
correct the habit so that he may soon
catch up with the rest in his class.
In this same class there was an
other boy who was above the stand
ard for his grade. His parents had
an opportunity to have his eyes test
ed and did SO. The oculist advised
them to get glasses for the boy and
Sc they did, although they doubted
his need of them since he was doing
very good school work Within a
month the boy had doubled his rate

Public Schools Doing Good Work

The Pullman school children arc
above the average in reading.
This was the substance of re-
port made to the school board last
Wednesday afternoon by DR.. c. w.
Stone of the State College.
About year ago the school board
authorized Superintendent Henry to
nave measurements taken of the
school children in order to see
whether the schools were really ac-
comprising what they should.
After consulting with the educa-
ton department of the college it was
decided to make a test of the chill
dren's ability in silent reading. This
is the most important part of the
school work because silent reading is
the tool by which all other SUBJECTS
are learned.
The tests decided upon for the
measurements were the Monroe Sill
ent Reading Tests. These were given
four times during the year and the
results recorded as shown in the
graph printed here. This graph rep
resents the progress made by differ
ent grades in the Edison building in
Il years time as compared with the
progress made by children in other
places. The black lines marked

speed in silent reading.

OF speed in silent reading
The progress of these tests has
been followed closely by some of the
parents. One man about 60 years
old, says he is willing to spend any
amount of time if he can learn to
read more rapidly without sounding
every word in his throat as he reads,
and he is starting in to try. He says
he wishes tests had been made when
he was a boy SO that he could have
had his bad reading habits corrected
then.
The real value of these tests lies in
the fact that each child can tell eX-
actly where he stands in relation to
the rest of the class. This knowledge
causes him to work harder and each
success encourages him that much
more.
Also, each teacher can find out
what the causes are that keep some
pupils behind the rest of the class,
and can give the help necessary to
bring the slow ones up to the stand
ard.
The fact that the Pullman school
children are we'll above the standards
in silent reading is an indication that
the schools are getting results. The
citizens of Pullman have reason to
be proud of the work that is being
done in their schools.

Standard show the progress made
by other children in other places.
The other line shows the progress
made by the same grades OF children
in the Edison school.
In all of the grades the children
were a little below the standard, as
YOU can see, when the first test was
given in December, a year ago
Then they began to improve rapidly
and when the last test was given in
February, all of the grades were far
above the standard line.
The reasons for this great I'M
provement are not hard to find. Al
ter the first test, both the children
end the teachers realized that I'M
movement could be made. They ali
started in to work with the intention
of improving before the next test
was given. The result is that the
children in the Edison school are
now we'll above the standard in read
ing ability.
Although the illustration given
shows only the Edison school, the
same general conclusion is true in re-
card to the main building me
children there are also above the aV-
erage in reading, although the yarl-
alton from the standard line IS not
SO great in some rooms as III otherS'
AS a result of the tests many IN
aiuidnn1 differences were noted
