Single Pupil
Sets Pace in
Fluid School
Individual Teaching
Banishes Idea of
Mass Problem.
BY ANGELO PATRI.
IF ARE turning from the old mass

WE ARE turning from the old mass
w teaching to the new, individual
teaching. Instead of giving lesson
to a class-testing it. getting rs per
cent average and going on to the next
point-we give the lesson, test 1t and
ponder over the results in terms Of the
individual child.
Here are three children who found
this too easy. Everything is right, but
the work shows lack OF interest. NO
traces of thought is in it. We must
carry these three along faster or give
them more complex problems.
These five got low marks. One
handed in a blank paper. Must find
who he is and what is wrong. This
one does not know his tables. This one
knows the facts, but he does not know
how to read problems. Have to help
him out with reading. This one Is
right as far as he got. Too slow. Have
to see about that. Maybe needs the
doctor This one is hopeless-just
tumble. o. he is new pupil. I'll
have to study him and help him until
he finds his place.
So the teacher of a good sized class
will go over the results OF lesson.
picking out those who are different
and helping them as they need help.
Fast children and slow ones. mediocre
and gifted, treated one by one.
Children of class are individually
different. That must be taken into
consideration in teaching class les
sons. But there are powers and weak
nesses in each child. They, too, must
be taken into consideration and pro-
vided for in this scheme. The child
who cannot do any work in certain
subject, but does superior work in an
other, must have a special program.
He goes to the specialist in the subject
of his weakness, is tested, a scheme Of
work planned, or maybe. if conditions
decree it, the subject is dropped for
time, or for all time 1t all depends
upon the condition of the child.
Gifted children, those strong in GER
tain lines of work. go to the group with
whom they can work best, regardless
of ages or grades. A gift usually shows
itself early. and the sooner it is culti-
waited the better.
This sort of schooling means fluid
school The old notion of sitting still
and listening, staying in one place for
hours, doing the same lessons in the
same way the grandfathers did, maybe
out of the same texts they used. is
dead. Some day it will be forgotten,
but not today We have only arrived
at the word. 1t is going to take lot
of time. fear, and much tribulation
before we build and equip and man the
schools that can give individual educa-
ton to their pupils. But those schools
will come.
Until then please do not ask teach
ers to whom so, even 40, pupils have
been assigned for the full school day
to do individual work with them. She
cannot do anything of the kind. To
do SO there must be diversified equip
ment, courses of study. generous sup
plies and special teachers to assist the
class room teacher. We must have the
new schools, the new leadership. the
new ideas in material form before the
new methods can be adopted.

satin in tearose with batteau neckline
has it's elbow-length sleeves and sash
lined with French blue sheer, pro-
ducing very dainty effect. The third
special is the one sketched at the right,
of French blue, with sleeves and sash
of darker blue sheer.
The charm of most of these negliges
lies in the choice and combination Of
exceptionally beautiful colors.
AT s1o95 we found very nice
models in silk crepe. with we'll
placed shirring One with long, full
sleeves has a band of shirring where
the sleeve is put into the armhole.
There is wide collar and attractive
buttons of clear prystal with rhine
stone centers. Soft rose and turquoise
are the colors shown in this design
Another at the same price has a
shirred yoke around the back, which
extends across the shoulders to a
raglan seamline at each side of the
front. This comes in bright blue,
powder blue and American beauty.
WHILE looking at the negliges a
nightgown of white sheer and
lace was brought out that would just
take your breath away. it is so lovely.
Wide bands of exquisitely fine lace
form v in the front, with the white
sheer slightly fulled on between the
lace and the belt. which is also of
wide lace. A section of fine shirring
gives front fullness to the skirt, while
the back has a center seam and a
slight train.
In the same class of extravagantly
beautiful garments is a delicate wisp
Of turquoise blue sheer made like a
frock. with long full sleeves, shirred
shoulders, and an exquisite rounded
vest and collar of fine cream lace
This gown also has shirred front skirt
fullness.
There are still more of these en-
trancing bits of lace and sheer to tell
you about, but we shall keep them to
describe when We talk about Autumn
brides. for they really seem to belong
especially in bridal trousseau.

Autumn is the best time to

Dorothy Dix Says
Husbands Should Treat Wives at Home
as Others Do Abroad

him. Can you blame a woman who
lives that sort of drab existence for
wanting to chuck it and get a job
downtown where she will, as least,
have movement and life around her
and chance to exchange a few words
with an articulate human being?
RELIEVE me, if husbands would
try as hard to sell domesticity to
their wives as they do new stream
line effect in automobiles to a Gus
toner. there wouldn't be so many
women trekking out of kitchens into
Offices. Just a little pleasant con-
versation and a few of the good
stories that set other peoples dinner
tables in roar would do lot toward
keeping wives from hankering for
the outside world where they would
have some companionship.
Give your wife at home what she
would get abroad. One thing would
be appreciation. If she did good work.
her employer would commend her for
it. If she was faithful and loyal and
devoted to her firm, if she worked
overtime. if she devised new ways of
saving money, she would be patted
on the back and told how invaluable
she was. But husband takes all her
labor and penny -pinching for granted
and never remarks on her achieve
ments except to criticize them. So it
is no wonder she wants to change
bosses. x 4 x 4
A ND if your wife is young and
pretty away from home she gets
flattery and lovemaking She is made
to feel that she is woman and not a
domestic utensil. Other men feed her
on angels food. Her husband stuffs
dust and ashes in her mouth. So it
is no wonder she wants to leave home
to be saleswoman in a confectionery.
1t is because husbands don't provide
homemade bonbons for their wives
that they nibble on forbidden sweets.
Finally, if husbands want to keep
their wives at home, they must make
the domestic job worthwhile. She
mustn't be expected to work for her
board and clothes and never have a
dollar that she can spend as she
pleases. She must have her pay en-
velope as well as the hired girl. 1t
isn't enough for man to say that all
he has is his wife's. He must give
her her fair share of it if he wants
to keep her from thinking of taking
up stenography or going in for dress
modelling. DOROTHY DIX.

to know how to keep their husbands

answer then invariably was: Give
your husband at home what he seeks
abroad. Make your home as comfort

WHEN one of these evenings pops
up-and you are just as hungry
as can be-and you have a can of
mushroom soup and can of calm
chowder in your larder-combine the
two-you will be delighted with the
result. Not only is it delicious, but
doubly nourishing. A salad tossed to-

hot beverage will round out the emer-

If your larder is bare of canned
soups you may by a little ingenuity
