CLASSIFYING CHILDREN
III WILLIAM IN. McKEEVER

~ LASTLY your children as
to their home duties. Some
~ are naturally good at de-
tails and can be-depended upon to
attend to the small routine Of the
daily work Of keeping the house.
In order.
Other types are never able or
happy in the performances Of such
tasks. There IS a manager type
Of child just as there is . man
ger type of man. He is natur-
ally alert and watchful as to
every little affair.
He knows when people come
and when they 90; he knows how
others work and how they play.
He is never unconsciousIy lost In
the crowd. That child is horn to
superintend something.
Then there is a type Of chilli
ike certain adults-wil prefers
to work under directions. He
tries to get your orders and to
carry them out in the easiest
way.
There are certain boys and
girls never dependable as to get
ting up in the morning uncalled,
or attending to small duties about
the household unreminded, or do
ing an original piece Of work I'M
assigned.
Such types deserve special con-
sideration, one item of which is
to give them larger and irregu-
lar appointments. For example,
a full day, or a half days work
on Saturday. You should be sat
isfied if the one big assignment
is done well, even though the
performer may do little or moth
ing by way of assistance during
the school days.
Too often the busy mother puts
the heavy burden on the more
willing child and never finds time
to require anything of the less
willing one. Thus the former
may become too much Of SER
want and the latter too much of a
tyrant.
The selfish boy who grows up
a leaner and is let off with moth
ing, even on Saturdays, will ac-
cordingly mistreat some one later
in his career. Perhaps it will be
a wife or child.
Not only should parents classl-
fy their. children and fit them
to the tasks--some assigned TO
