Home Work Is Bad for
the Children Doctors Say
Parents, Teachers Urged Not To
Infringe on Child's Sleep or
Recreation

st. Paul, Dec. 14-Excessive de-
mands made upon the children by
both school and home schedules
prompt physicians Of the Mime
sofa State Medical Association to
protest this week in favor or more
rest and sleep for children.
The best general rule for all chill
dren of grade school age is bed
time at eight o'clock, the doctors
declare in this bulletin.
Both parents and teachers agree
that early bed times and long
hours of sleep are necessary. Yet
both are guilty of infringing fire.
ouently on the sleep of children.
Many an entertainment is arranged
in the evening for the benefit OF
parents for instance, in which chill
dren perform long after their pre-
scribed bed times. The fact that
these entertainments are arranged
for Friday nights is small excuse.
Many children never sleep late IN
the morning to make up for late
hours of the night before. And
even when they do sleep late they
have still been cheated out of the
early evening hours Of sleep, al
ways the soundest and best.
The doctors acknowledge that
children differ in the amount Of
rest and sleep they require for
maximum growth and health. They
assert, however that schools at
least, should make their schedules
and all their arrangements with the
nervous and easily fatigued child as
we'll as with the placid, robust
child, in mind.
The problem of home work Is
bound up with the problem Of rest
and recreation of children, they
say further The six hours required
of a child in school Is enough time
for him to devote to formal learn
ing. If he cannot learn enough
reading, writing and arithmetic,
not to speak Of citizenship, art,
hygiene, music and gymnasium
work in that time, something must
be wrong with our system Of teach
ing or with our educational re-
quirements.
Extra lessons to be studied at
home are either sighted which is
bad; or they are toilsomely done
at the expense of the child's needed
strength which is worse.
The amount of sleep that a grow
ing child takes with advantage is
sometimes enormous when circum-
stances can be arranged to give him
the chance, the doctors conclude.
The great trouble is that our lives
at home, our houses, our scn"o

railroad grade crossings eliminated
from the trunk highway system. or
these 112 were abolished by build
ing overhead or underpass struc-
lures, at an average cost of $25, 900.
The other 455 were removed from
the system by relocation Of the
road. If grade separations had
been built at these 455 points, in
stead of relocating the road, the
cost would have been $11, 375, 900.
Adding this to the cost of grading
and surfacing 1913 miles which have
been eliminated, makes total saw
ing of $21, 982, 900. This is more
than double the total expenditure
of $9,457, 900 for right-of-way since
1921. A considerable part of the
right-of-way bought has been for
widening old roads.
Savings to road users are still
greater, Mr.. Babcock said. The
mileage reductions alone bring saw
ings to vehicle owners in operating
costs and time saved which annual
ly equal ten per cent OF the en-
tire investment in state highways
to say nothing of the greater saw
ings through improved road sur
faces, easier grades and removal Of
sharp turns and other hazards.
Each section of a highway pre-
sents a different problem. In some
cases it is possible to find a new To-
cation where the cost per mile is
less than grading and surfacing the
old road to modern standards would
cost. In other cases the cost of
relocation may be greater than i'm
proving the old road, but the saw
ing to road users through reduced
mileage and easier grades will more
than pay the cost. No project has
been undertaken unless the cost is
justified by the traffic it will
carry

Road Relocatings
Save Large Sums
Reducing Distance, Eliminating
Railroad Crossings, Cuts
Cost of Construction

Relocating of trunk highways has
saved more than twice as much in
construction costs as has been
spent for right of way for new
highways and right of way for
widening old highways, according
to figures given out by c. M. Bah
cock, commissioner of highways.
From the time the state took ov-
er the trunk routes in 1921, distance
reductions totaling 1893 miles have
been effected by relocation. Mr..
Babcock says. OF these 1877 miles
are on routes which have been or
soon will be paved. At $4,000 a
mile for grading and paving this
means saving Of $6,680,000. The
other 231 miles are on routes which
are or will be bituminous treated.
At $4,000 a mile for grading, grav-
cling and bituminous treatment the
saving is $3,927, 900. This makes a
total Of $10.607, 900 saved in grading
and surfacing.
Since 1921, there have been SGT

It shone so bright

And all the angels
Sang that night.

"U" Employment Study
Watched Over the U. S.
May Serve in Many Respects As
Model for Probable New Fed
eraI Employment Set-Up

Minneapolis, Dec.-That the I'm
iversity of Minnesota in it's En-
ployment Research Institute may
have developed one of the most
far-reaching improvements to our
future social economic life among
any that result from the despres-
sion, is in the view brought back
recently by a number Of university
people who have had occasion to
visit Washington and other eastern
cities.
According to William H. Stead,
secretary of the State Employment
Service which the institute is man
aging, 100000 persons have been
registered as unemployed in Min
neapolis, st. Paul and Duluth. OF
these 94,833 have sought the help
of the employment service, and
40,071 certified placements have
been made among that number.
Half of the 10000 went to regular
positions, rather than temporary
jobs.
The funds given by three big re-
search boards, namely the Carne-
gle Corporation, the Rockefeller
Foundation, and the Spelman Fund,
for conducting the work Of the
Employment Research Institute,
will expire this year and Dear Rus
sell A. Stevenson and his assistants
are casting about for means to con-
tinue at least the placement SER
vice, which they dream of major
importance.
In modifying and undermining
the state employment service the
committee has entirely scrapped
old methods. Whereas all applicants,
men and women seeking jobs Of
every sort, were served at a single,
Horseshoe" counter in the old way,
the service is now divided into six
departments, commercial and pro-
fessional, skilled and industrial,
farm labor, general labor, indus
trial and service division and the
domestic and day work division,
the last two serving women only.
Each group is handled separately
and officers are neat and attractive,
such as a self-respecting person
might go to.
The employees of the employ
ment service deal with applicants
only in the morning. They spend
the afternoons calling on employ
ers and visiting stores and factor
les. In this way they learn exactly
the conditions of employment and
know both how many and what
kind of employees are needed.
Tests that have been worked out
by the personnel division of the
Employment Sterilization Institute
are given to most of those who
apply for work. These determine
the experience, physical condition,
abilities, special aptitudes and in
general, the personality traits Of
applicants. This is part of the at
tempt to fit worker to the job as
closely as possible, so that he may
be not only efficient in it, but happy
also.
The attention attracted by the
Minnesota experiment is now ma
tionwide and there is a likelihood
that the employment service along
the lines advocated by Senator
Wagner which probably will be
established by the next national ad-
roinistration, will draw heavily on
the ideas and experience developed
at the University of Minnesota.
