Keep Chicks Warm


We've been having our share OF
cold weather lately For poultry
men this emphasizes the need for
being prepared. Let's make sure
that the chicks are comfortably
warm especially when they first
arrive. Chilled chicks get of 10 q
bad start and will never grow as
well as those that are taken care
of properly, says Ray Lloyd, Asso-
ciate County Agent.
The following recommendations
are given by the agent: Start
brooder stoves at least "a hours
before chicks arrive SO that the
house will be warm and dry. Fill
water fountains the day before
chicks arrive SO that the water will
be room temperature so the chicks
will drink Use a cardboard ring
around tNe brooder stove to break
the floor drafts. Use a therometer
and get the temperature to 80 or
95 degrees at the edge of the hover,
Take care of your chicks and
you viii avoid the stress factors
which aggravate diseases. Healthy
chicks are profitable chicks and
these few simple precautions will
help you produce healthier chicks,
says the agent.

Get Dark Early In
Your Barnyard? ?

The shortest days of the year are
just passing by and now is good
time to figure where you need more
lights around the farmstead, says
Ray Lloyd, county agricultural ag-
ent
While you are out stumbling
around in the dark of early eve-
ming, make a mental note of those
places paths, driveways, build
ing entrances, steps, walks, ma
chinery service and repair areas,
loading and unloading areas, feed
ing and watering areas that
need more light.
Mr. Lloyd reports that .agricul-
tural engineers at the University
OF Delaware recommend yard
lights be Is to 20 feet above the
ground and that fixtures selected
that direct the light where it is
needed. Weatherproof heavy glass
bulbs, shaped like automobile
head lights, are good for the job,
the engineers say.
Don't put lights in the trees, Mr.
Lloyd says. You will lose light to
the shade of leaves and branches
and they are more likely to be
damaged by wind.
A light on the corner Of a build
ing is often a good idea because ii
will provide light for two sides OF
the building.

Mathematics
Being Taught
Earlier Here

Introducing first and second
grade youngsters to the mys-
teries of multiplication and
division was the result of a re-
vised course Of study in elemen-
tary mathematics adopted by
the Board of Education in De.
cember, 1858.
Besides introducing these con-
cepts in the lower grades, the
new approach emphasizes the
understanding of the number
system and the basic principles
underlying operations with
numbers. Addition and subtrac.
ton of decimal fractions was
moved up to the fifth grade
with the sixth graders concen-
trating on percentages and vol
ume.
The revision of the course of
study was prepared in the 1858
summer workshop. Classroom
teachers, principals and super.
visors participated under the
direction of DR.. Mary L. Grau
and Miss Frances Mitchell,
chairmen.

Tots Study Foreign Longuoes

FILES, the name by which
the P-TAs' after school pro-
gram of foreign languages in
the elementary schools is
known in the county, finally
led in its fifth year to an
experiment to teach French
for Is minutes a day as part
of the regular school pro-
gram.
Third graders in two of the
county's schools, Parkwood and
Larchmont, began their daily Is

March, 1859 with Mrs. Evagene

after school FILES program.

School Library
System Grows

The first supervisor of H.
brary services in Montgomery
County was appointed in 194S.
At that time there were 10 IL
brarians, all in secondary
schools.
In 1889 there were % Sec
ondary schools, half of which had
enrollments of over 100 with
two librarians assigned to each
school. One school had a teach
er-librarian to assist the IL
brarian on a part-time basis,
making a total of "a Librarians
in the secondary schools.
Each elementary school had
a central library collection
selected to meet the needs and
interests Of young children. The
first librarian for the elemen-
tray school was appointed in
February 1855. In 1889 there
were nine elementary librarians
serving IS schools on a half
time basis.

been doubtful that much could
be learned in such short ses-
sions, the youngsters in less
than four months were able to
speak and understand enough
French so that they spoke
nothing else in the class period.
Along with their conversations
they could also sing a number
of French songs and play some
of the games of the children Of
France.
Correct pronunciation and
vocabulary are Mrs. Ruebush's
aims with no attempt to teach
the written word or grammar.
The main objective is to estab-

lish an easy familiarity with
the language as it is spoken by
natives.
These are the same teaching
methods of the FILES program
which in Montgomery County
Is the largest in the United
States. The principle behind the
method is that before 10 or IL
years of age the child learns a
second language as he does his
mother tongue by imitation and
repetition and not by the rules
of grammar.
The after school program Is
under the direction of Mrs.
John F. Sherman and her vol
unteer P.TA committee. Or.
gained by a group of citizens
including Mrs. Sherman, FILES

children were studying French,

ty schools.

Reporters
Are Named
In Schools

School news representatives
were appointed for the first
time in March, 1859. to improve
the quantity and quality of re-
porting school news and the
public's understanding of the
educational program.
Following the first Public
Relations Workshop in the
county for principals and super
visors, a news representative
was appointed in every school
and department for a total Of

More Than 1000
Signed Up for
Adult Classes

Montgomery County's Adult
Education Program for 1889
registered more than 1000 per.
sons, approximately rs per cent
women and Is per cent men,
for classes at 16 day centers
and 10 evening centers through
out the county.
At a cost of only S. a semes-
ter, persons over 16 years Of
age, not regularly attending a
day school program below col.
lege level, were able to take
such courses as lip reading, all
forms of art instruction, foreign
languages, millinery, dress max
ing, rug braiding and hooking,
jewelry and gem cutting, Amer.
icanization and many others.
The program is a very flex-
ible one and depends upon the
demand-if enough people want
a course and there is a qualified
teacher available, the course
will be offered.
