Hie teachers and principals then 831 students who showed defect and these were con- acted by Kessler and Miss Burrack. After screening the group a num- Iber were eliminated as having no speech defect and whose ondltton did not warrant treatment.

Kessler said this percentage npares favorably with a national (figure of 10 per cent of elementary udents -who are suffering speech defects. Kessler added that plans are being nade determine those who must 3 "taught Individually by a correc- tiose who can be. handled rtth group therapy and those who Safety Council ElectsKirtley AT believing" Is the policy followed In science classes In Allegany county's schools.

East Side Schoo but we are managta to keep up. The visit to East Side was mac In the company of Miss Ruby Adams, director of. elementary edu cation for Allegany county. Befor going to the.Sixth Grade, to whlc we had been, promoted, stpppe for a few minutes, with 'Fiftr Grade group In mids of a'music lesson directed Mrs Margaret Winner Carroll. Mrs.

Carroll explained that grou singing at. East Side is hard manage because the auditorium has been converted into a. cafeteria. bring about a situation where group singing Is possible all the rooms on the second floor sing at once, with Mrs. Carroll moving from room room to give a helping hand.

Such action Is adapting a building to the best possible use under the circumstances, explained Mis Adams. It was -also noted that the office of the principal, Miss Agnes Carroll, is'In the hall. While such an arrangement did not seem too satisfactory, it seemed to be serving purpose lor the time being at' least. finally reached the Sixth Grade room of Miss when a discussion on the compass and Its'uses was underway. This Jed to a further development of information and learning on magnetic fields, and it wasn't long until the room was turned into a scientific laboratory.

Miss Doak had placed a number of questions on the blackboard and asked for volunteers to perform, experiments in 1 relation to the questions. A b'oy was selected and he set about to find out by actual trial and error-method the, answer to the question: "Will a magnetic force pass through cardboard, wood, glass and iron?" The youthful "laboratory technician" placed tacks on top of a piece -of cardboard and moved a magnet underneath the paper. The tacks moved to show the force was passing through. Other students were anxious to see for themselves so the youth moved around through the room so that all could see for themselves Just what was happening. The process was repeated with glass- and an iron sheet used instead of.the cardboard: The result was'the same.

Next came the wood test. The tacks would not move. But the students were not stopped. Some one suggested the thickness' of the wood might be a factor and another advanced the idea that the magnet might not strong enough. Miss Doak propose that class members bring thinne pieces of wood so that further to could be made.

A strength test got underway im mediately. Tacks were placed on i table beside 'a ruler. Magnets weri slowly moved toward the tacks and. the distance the tacks wer pulled was carefully recorded. I was -soon learned magnets have differences in strength.

At this stage it was time fo: lunch and we were invited to stay laboratory experiment cor- tolnly seemed worthwhile to us, Thi boys and girls 'were learning actual experience and not Jus taklnc the printed word in a texi book as the truth. We didn't do it. that way to any great extent when we were "In the Sixth Grade, and we like today's method so much better. All during the tests the children were on the edge of their seats and there was hardly one who did not want to take part In some way or other in the experiment. Another interesting factor we discovered was that nearly all the material for the tests was furnished by the students themselves.

In no instance -was -it costly, and the actual providing of the materials Increases student-Interest. The luncheon consisted of melted cheese over crackers, tomatoes, a slaw and' egg 'salad, ice cream and milk. The meal was cooked well and attractively served. There were seconds all who wanted to Indulge, so we had a little more of that cheese, and crackers.
