No, there isn't great deal OF

More Independent Now
Children nowadays show more in
general rule, Miss Hedriek said. but
pointed out the advantage of re-
duced restrictions in development
of personality.
"A child often reflects his par
ents in striking manner, Miss
Hedrick declared, in explaining how
a practiced eye can discern the type
of home and influences. The best
minds. however, do not always come
from the finest homes, she pointed
out.
Among the most important de-
velopments in educational methods
outlined by Miss Hedrick, were in
creased cooperation between teach
er and parent and the evolution
from teaching mere facts" by rote
to teaching through interesting the
child in the subject itself.
Bending The Twig
Like twigs, children grow as
they are influenced. The home ana
the school, the two chief factors
during the early years in forming
a child. therefore, should work
closely together"
Does she regret the choice she
made to become teacher? Does
she regret the heartbreak caused
by problem children. the paper
Wads and the thrown chalk, the
hours of worry over whether John
will learn that three and three
are not five?
Regret it? My, no! Teaching is
hard work, but love it. The happi-
est moment is when some apparent
stranger comes into my room and
l can say:
What a minute, don't tell me,
and I'll remember your name You

TIPS %
Start Them Indoors

TOMATO, cabbage, broccoli,
4 egg plant and pepper crops
usually prove more satisfactory
when they are started indoors
from seed. The gardener thus
may use seed of a known variety
from a dependable source.
About eight weeks before plants
are to be set in open, sow seeds q
quarter-inch deep in good soil in a
regular florists fiat. Water thor
oughly but not too frequently
preferably on bright days. fsss
Good sunlight and good air cir
culation are important in prevent
ing "danping off," Keep temper
ature fairly even at 10 to rs de-
grees. When young plants are
about one and one-half inches tall,
transplant to a larger box OF, cold
frame, spacing about three inches
apart. .t. KS Ks
If the plants are grown in q box,
place them indoors in the shade
on six or eight mild days to hard
en- them off. When plants are set
in open soil, space them far
enough apart to allow for full de-
velopment.
