Best Methods to Handle
Children at Home and
School Stressed.

Speakers are scheduled at many
of the club sessions. They are ex-
perts on the child and the school.
Most meetings, however, are turned
over to discussions among the moth
ers concerning the material which
they have studied.
Reading lists are prepared so that
the club members may read on the
subjects being discussed. At the
meetings, thees readings are re-
ported, so that the whole group may
get the benefit of each members re-
search.
School rs, Thirtieth street and
College avenue, claims the oldest
mothers study club in the city. It's
existence dates back to shortly after
the war.
Mrs. Matt G. Carpenter, 1853
North Holmes avenue. is chairman
of the committee in charge of the
study groups. The committee en-
courages new clubs to start, helps
to formulate plan of study, selects
the reading lists, obtains speakers
in many instances, and correlates
the work of the various groups.

LIBRARY TRIPS
POPULAR WITH
GRADE PUPILS
School 2 Students Learn to
Look Up References;
Select Books.

It's kind of drab these mornings
in the Riley children's room of the
Central library, 40 East st. Clair
street.
But in the afternoon, there's
that hum Of quiet activity that is
always going on in busy library.
Every pupil above the second
grade in Benjamin Harrison school
No. 2 spends a class period every
week in the library, studying, look
ing up references for future classes,
and selecting books to read.
Every afternoon, the room is full
of school children who, under the
guidance of their teacher, have come
the block and half from school.
Each class has its designated library
day, and little chance has any
teacher of forgetting.
March to Library
Some pupil raises his hand every
day to remind, Teacher, this is our
day at the library" And to the Ii
brary they go.
The average class is made up of
about forty children. In a column
of twos, they troop down the street.
At the int rSection two boys of the
safety patrol guide the line across,
between spurts of traffic.
Once in the Riley room, the chill
dren line up at the desk and re-
turn the books which they have had
for a week. Then they are at liberty
to read what they please, to look for
anything they like.
Exhibits Draw Interest
One reads magazine. Another
looks up something about his geog-
raphy lesson. A third reads some
stories from book.
After they have finished their
reading, many of them go to the
back Of the room where they look at
the exhibits. At present, there is a
showing of pottery, made by the
Girl Scouts at their camp.
At the end of the period the
pupils check out the books they
want. They return to school in their
column.
The Riley room is drab, silent
again.

NEWSP APER is
PUBLISHED BY
EIGHTH GRADE
Pupils at Franklin School
Cheered by Success of
First Edition.

True to the Franklin tradition,
pupils in the eighth grade at Ben
jamin Franklin school, No. IS,
Twenty-eighth street and Capitol
avenue. have taken up the publica-
ton of a newspaper, The Franklin
Announcer.
First issue of the paper. WI n
will appear each month, was cir
culated last week.
Benjamin Franklin is the most
celebrated of the early American
printers. His brother. Joseph Frank
lin, published the New England
Courant," one of the first colonial
newspapers, in Boston.
The Announce" is produced in
mimeographed form. The whole
eighth grade is the editorial staff.
Editors of the paper are Vernon
Striebel, Richard Bragg and David
Grant. Theirs is the job of organ
izing their staff to get all news of
the school.
The paper has five art editors.
who illustrate in pen and ink the
events that are reported. They are
Isabel Agal, Jean Beal, Charles
Stroud, Mary Ellen Billeter and
Anna Mae Mendenhall.
The Announcer" will back all
school projects and functions. It's
policy is to treat all departments
impartially.
Popularity of the new publication
is shown by the fact that the first
editions circulation was greater
than the number of pupils in the
school. The advertising policy has
not been determined.
