Students Keep Charts in
Character Education
Program.

March is the month of kindness
at Riverside School.
Under its character education
program outlined by the principal,
Miss Elizabeth Kirby, every month
stands for some good character
quality which the pupils are taught
to observe.
Miss Kirby's program correlates
character building with citizenship
and civics work. She prepares a list
of material on each months quality
for the teachers and a photography
for the pupils. This includes poetry
or historical data for use in daily
morning programs.
Interest Parents
The students use the photography
for library reference work outside
school. Each one later is required

to recite on the material they gather
on each months character trait.
Committees are appointed in each
room to arrange the morning pro-
grams.
"By having them do research work
outside school we get the parents
cooperation also" Miss Kirby ex-
planned. I'm helping the children
get their material. they become in
terested in applying the rules at
home"
Throughout the month the upper
grade pupils keep self-marked cit
izenship charts of their actions re-
garding courtesy, obedience, indus
try, respect for property, attitude,
personal habits, and trustworthiness
Children Honest
At the end of the term they are
allowed to estimate this citizenship
grade as satisfactory" or "unsatis-
factory" If the teacher agrees with
their estimate of themselves they
are not punished for breaking the
rules.
Miss Kirby has outlined the fol-
lowing character program: Septem-
Der, courtesy; October, obedience;
November, gratitude; December,
charity; January, courage; Febru-
airy, patriotism; Marcel, kindness;
April, trustworthineSS; May, indus
try, and June, success.
The project has worked success
fully for four years, Miss Kirby said.
She finds that a large per cent of
the children are honest in >hecking
their own misconduct which she be-
lieves a direct result Of the char
acter program.

RECORD IS SET
FOR SKY MAIL
High Mark in September;
October Even Better.

By Times Special
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1S.-Sep-
TENDER established a new record fol
air mail carried and October will be
even better, postoffice officials said
today.
In September the poundage was
1891, compared with 419,047 in
August. The gain of 4,944 pounds
was made, despite five Sundays, five
Saturdays and one holiday during
the month, when mail is unusually
light.
The Chicago-San Francisco route
carried the greatest volume in either
month, with New York Chicago Sec
ond.
The least amount, 2,948 pounds,
was carried on Dallas Galveston
route.
Although air mail service with
Mexico has been established, no fig
ureS have been received on the
poundage going into and coming out
OF that country at Laredo.
Reduced rates and seasonal in
crease are responsible for the gains.
Officials said this would be the
largest air mail year in postoffice
history, many new routes being put
into operation and with the rate at
a point where most people prefer
to use the air mail.
