Watch the Schools at Work

The exhibits which the grade schools of the
city have on display now are an invitation to
parents to see the results of the practical sides
of our educational system.
But their real worth to the school patron
can be intensified immensely if the parent will
not be satisfied with the result but also looks at
the cause. The latter will be found in the school
room itself
How many parents who visit the display are
interested enough to go to the classroom where
their sons and daughters are being educated?
In how many parents did the exhibit create de-
sire to see the school room functioning in its
process of educating the child?
The exhibits are splendid things in them
selves, but the school system would derive ire
mendous amount of good if the parent would not
stop with the results, as in the displays, but
would enter the classroom to watch the teacher
schooling the child.
And that's precisely what the teachers want
the parents to do. They believe that the exhibits
would be twice as valuable, from the standpoint
of creating an interest of the parent in the
school, if the fathers and mothers would attend
the classes.
Fathers and mothers are urged~by the teach
ers to visit the school in operation. Instructors
do not resent the presence of visitors, but en-
courage it; not because they want to "show off,
their pupils, but because they believe the parent
will obtain a new conception of the purpose of
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1922-05-20

the school by seeing what is done and how it is
done.
Sometimes we have very erroneous notions,
and even prejudices, that can be traced to our
ignorance of methods and purposes. The quick
est way to remove them is to see for ourselves,
conduct an examination, make an inspection. II
you believe that the schools are weak in some
particular, why not take advantage of an oppor-
tunity to see the school at work, to confer with
the teachers, to try to learn their viewpoint in
particular and the policy of the school system as
a whole? This would at least give you first
hand information, even if you disagreed with
the men and women to whom you have entrusted
the education of the youth
School are not institutions that are apart
from our lives They are highly important or
CARNATIONS that are performing task which
we cannot do in our homes, because we lack the
training and the time. The education of boy
or girl is the highest concern parent can have
education not only of the mind but also of the
spiritual qualities of the youth.
Since this is So and who would deny this
truth, parents should keep in close touch with
the school system by frequent visits and consul
tations with the teacher. The school is intended
to perform one of the functions of the home. To
the teacher has been delegated task which the
parent cannot perform, but this transfer of re-
sponsibility does not end the parents duty to
see that the work is done correctly.
Too many of US are Sinking the personal re-
sponsibility of watching closely the education of
the child We believe that our duty ends when
we see that the child is started for school in the
morning The teachers, we believe, are our sub
stitutes, and so we let them worry with the prob
lem, seldom wondering if the teacher would not
school the child with more ease and pleasure if
she had the cooperation of the parent.
Fathers and mothers will be helping them
selves and their children by visiting the schools,
famiiarizing themselves with conditions, and CO.
operating with the teachers.
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1922-05-20

was flying in the face of Providence,
that had the Lord intended you to
have a child one would have been
sent. Many a woman carried an ach-
ing mothers heart because she would
not dare criticism enough to bestow
upon some other woman's children
the love she hungered to give.
But there has been almost an ep-
fdemic of adoption in the last few
years, and many childless home has
been gladdened by the entrance into
1t OF one or more children. Doubtless
the fact of well known people adop-
ting children had great influence in
making the custom more widespread.
Also when an attractive child has
been placed in locality other people
in that vicinity are stimulated to Sc
cure one.
Demand Exceeds Supply
On the other hand, there has been
a great falling off in the number of
children available for adoption. JUS
what has contributed to make this so
is difficult to- say, but undoubtedly the
mothers pension bill has much to do
with it. Figures show that 10000
children were cared for in their homes
in New York state by the aid of the
mothers pension who would other
wise have become public charges.
Whether the high wages of the last
few years helped to bring about this
fact is problematical, but all workers
agree that prohibition played large
part in effecting this result.
Mrs. Don c. Seitz, who finds homes
for children in New York City, says
it has long since ceased to be the
point to find home for a child, but
the object is to find a child for the
home offered and pray for the wis
dom of Solomon to dicide which
home is best for the child in ques-
ton. This inability of the child-plac-
ing agencies to supply the extraordi-
nary demand for Adaptable children
has evidently led impatient foster
parents to turn elsewhere for assist
ance. They see an advertisement
''fine baby boy, six months old, good
disposition" in the newspaper, and
they rush after him, willing to pay a
tidy sum and to avoid all embarrass-
ing questions concerning the child's
| parentage, before some other eager
adopter comes along and gets him.
More often than not, they them
selves are approached by parents
with a hard-luck story and a baby
they are willing to relinquish for
slight consideration. 1t is possible
that some of these parents dispose
of their children by such methods on
| ly under the greatest duress or in
spirit of noble self-sacrifice, but ex-
perience has shown that this is sell
dom the case. Usually, it is the in
terest of the adults alone which is
| considered-not the welfare of the
child.

Q Please explain the method used
by Brazil in handling coffee-B. C. p
A. The department of agriculture
says that in the Brazilian Coffee va
iorization scheme the coffee is pur-
chased outright by the Brazilian gov
eminent, or at least by the state gov
ernments in the coffee producing re
nortation of coffee, but exercises con-
troll over the number of coffee trees
planted. Since Brazil is the largest
coffee producing country, it has been
able to exercise an almost complete
control over the worlds supply. To
finance the valorization scheme, the
Brazilian states have contracted large
loans in foreign countries and in sew
have
titles of paper money against the
stocks of coffee.

MARION DAVIES
HAS GOOD ROLE
Screen Star Is Pampered Society Fav-
orite in "Enchantment."

Marion Davies, star of Cosmopolitan
productions. reaches a new plane in
her art in "Enchantment," her newest
picture which will be seen at the Isis

and petted society favorite. Miss
Davies is lovely miss whose power
over her boy friends has gone to her
head. She displays the flippancy of
the character with skill. 1t is role
perfectly suited to Miss Davies quail
ties.
"Enchantment" was adapted to the
screen from the story 'Manhandling
Ethel" by Frank r. Adams. The key
