. Getting Across
Sugar-COated
Truisms
By L. Lamar Matthews

TlHE pupils in Miss Herbert's
4 class look forward to the
story that is part Of their daily
program. There Is no set period
for this diversion; but some time
during the school day, when there
IL a little time to spare or when
the children seem tired or rest
less, Miss Herbert permits them
to- put their books away and lis.
ten to story.
The teacher always knows a
new story and she tells it well.
The definite purpose of the nara
tive Is to teach a lesson, to point
q moral: but the lesson is cleverly
disguised and the children swal-
low it in sugar-coated form, with
out any of the silent protests
that often accompany lectures.
One day she relates an Incl
dent that proves the value OF
honesty. Another time her story
Is about a boy or girl who told

popular tales are those which re-
late to fair play in sports. Some
Of the stories are true; some are
fiction.
And because her pupils are 10,
III. and 10 years old. she tells
stories about boys and girls who
are IA, Is and Is years old. She
has learned that they like those
best. 1t makes them feel older
and more important.
Occasionally she varies the pro-
gram by calling on some child
to tell story. But she usually
does the narrating, because she
does not wish them to find out

Another thing that Miss Her.

writes one, two, three or four
lines high up on the blackboard
each morning and leaves it there
all day. The quick glance of the
wide-awake children naturally dis
covered it first and their gaze
attracted the notice of the other
pupils. Now the children look
for this friendly message as soon
as they are seated.
Some of the girls have begun
the practice of copying down
these inspired lines into their

Milton Sills will be seen at the

the army in disgrace he goes to Brazil
and is entrapped by designing
Woman. Disillusioned he buries
himself in the jungles and becomes
-foSamAn of diamond mine.
Milton Stills as Hilaire is force
full and convincing and carries the
spectators with him in his expert
