NEWARK RESIDENTS
WANT NEW TIME

Special TO The Evening Journal.
NEWARK, April 13.-There is "a
persistent demand among residents
OF Newark for the Town Council 10
pass an ordinance providing for
daylight saving time. Last summer
many residents were compelled TO
undergo a practical hardship in the
matter of working hours or at least
hours away from home because of
the fact of Wilmington operating
under the new time while Newark
remained on old time.
The board Of directors of the
Chamber Of Commerce at a recent
meeting unanimously adopted a
resolution favoring daylight saving
time for Newark and requested
Town Council TO take action to that
effect Announcement has been
made by the University of Delaware
that Il will operate on the daylight
saving time because of 1t being
necessary owing to changed sched-
ules on the railroads.

bring home Is now done in school
and the better readings, the more
interesting subject matter is taken
home for evening study.
Semi-annual promotions are also
in vogue. This enables pupils who
are particularly ambitious to make
up half years work and secure an
extra promotion, or pupils who for
various reasons are slow are per-
mitted TO drop back half year and
not lose the entire year. This
works out particularly we'll in high
school subjects. Pupils who are
compelled to drop a subject at the
end OF the second or third month
may take up the subject at the be-
ginning of the second term. losing
only the half year.
Parent Teachers associations have
been organized and are doing very
effective work. The patrons OF the
Mesa public schools are deeply in
terested In the progress of the
children and are anxious TO secure
for their posterity the best heritage
that an American public can give, a
well arranged public school educa-

been added to the course OF the
Junior high school.
Physical Education
Physical education is a part Of
every child's life each day. During
the year 1920-1921 there was no day
during the year that the children
could not get out on the play ground
and participate in their class exer-
cises. During the year 1921-1922, TO
date, the same experience has been
had.
The course OF study in the high
school meets the requirements of the
North Central Association of Sec
ondary Schools and Colleges, and
also, of the colleges and universities
OF the United States. The English
department is stressing public
speech. The history department is
emphasizing citizenship. In the
senior class special course on
problems of democracy Is given. The
aim OF this course is a special prep
aration for the graduates OF Mesa
Union High school, so that they NAV
have a working knowledge of ele-
mentary economies, sociology and
civics. The Spanish department
stresses a conversational knowledge
OF the language. The science de-
partment is especially active in pro-
noting scientific interests, agricul-
tural, biological, and mining. The
home economics department is Civ
ing a four years course in home
making, home nursing and home
management. The Industrial depart
ment gives courses in carpentry,
cabinet making, mechanical draw
ing, and auto mechanics. At the
present time the carpentry class is
building shop for their department.
The agricultural department func-
tons with the community and at
tempts to give the students both an
experimental and a working knowl>
edge of the farm problems of the
Salt River valley. The art, music
and physical education departments
are aiming to make their work
practical and individual
The students OF the Mesa Union
High school have a self-governing
body which has functioned we'll dur
ing its existence. The interests of
the students are taken care of
through committee action of faculty
and students. Social activities,
athletic activities, literary work
ueDates and assemblies are handled
by the students.
Fine Teaching Staff
The most important single factor
in a system OF schools is, naturally
the teacher. In the Mesa grade
schools every teacher has not only
completed a four-year high school
course but has completed a minimum
requirement OF two years normal
school work and secured diploma of
graduation from an accredited insti-
tuition. Many OF these teachers have
attended summer school and have
taken extension courses developing
their professional interests and
their teaching abilities.
The high school teachers have an.
equally high standing. Instructors
of academic subjects are all college
or university graduates, with con-
Arizona republican., 1922-01-01

The public schools of the Mesa
community are governed by a num-
ber of boards Of trustees. The Lehi
school district is three miles north
of Mesa. and consists of one good
school building with six teachers.
The Alma school district iss one mile
west of Mesa, and consists of two
excellent buildings with fourteen
teachers. The Gilbert and Chandler
schools were at one time connected
with the Mesa schools but have in
recent years, had their own organi-
zation.
The Mesa schools proper, consist
of Mesa school district No. 4 and the
Mesa Union high school district. Dis
trict No. comprises the town of
Mesa City and the county lying
north, east and south OF the city.
The Mesa Union High school dis
trict consists of the Alma, Lehi and
Mesa grade school districts.
The children of the Mesa grade
schools are housed in five, well built,
modern school buildings. The high
school students are housed in first
class modern building with all the
advantages necessary for first class
work. Attached to the high school
building is an auditorium, seating
one thousand people. with a first
class stage, a good floor for social
activities, also provided with a
gymnasium for both high school
students and the city interests.
High Standard
The Mesa public schools have
adopted a course of study which in
every way complies with the require
ments Of the state board Of educa-
ton, and, at the same time, is in adj
vance of many OF the better schools
of the country. Manual training.
home economics, kindergarten, ply
sical education, music, art, are de-
partments of the grade schools. The
school for English speaking
children has a special course of study
adapted to the needs and abilities Of
the children. Specially trained
teachers are working in this institu-
tion. A special school for colored
children is also maintained. All
children in the grades have equal
opportunities for the best type OF
education.
A unique system of grade arrange
ments has afforded special success
along the lines OF discipline. Child
rem of the first, second and third
grades have special buildings. and
children of the fourth, fifth and sixth
grades with the junior high school
are housed in another building, the
Franklin building.
Free play activities and socialized
recitation are playing a prominent
part in the work of the primary
school. The intermediate grades are
established on the platoon system,
which has been worked out very sue
cessfully in Detroit. Michigan. The
junior high school affords the child
rem an opportunity to broaden their
interests and intensity their activi-
ties along both scholastic and indus
trial lines. Spanish. general science
and commercial arithmetic have

WOMAN'S CLUB IS
LEADER IN MESA

One of the thriving civic organiza-
tions in Mesa Is the Woman's club
Of Mesa, organized on March 3, 1917,
and now having membership of 81.
The club has been decidedly active
since its organization and regular
meetings held every second Friday
afternoon during the winter months
are well attended. The Civics and
economics and the literature depart
ments are auxiliary units to the club
which also hold stated meetings and
programs through the club season.
Following the clubs organization,
the body was incorporated under the
laws of Arizona in 1919. Mrs. Bert
Wingar was the first president Of the
Woman's club, followed in order by
Mrs. w. ]. Clemens, Mrs. Matte Still
well, Mrs. r. A. Kingsbury and Mrs.
Walter ID. Webb who is now. filling
her second term in office.
In the fall of 1921 the Woman's
club Of Mesa purchased choice
building site on North Macdonald
street. Cash was paid for the prop
erty and various activities are now
being carried on by the club to raise
funds for the erection OF the future
Womans club building.
