The six hours or so which youngsters spend in the classrooms each day nre no longer completely dissociated from the nulsiilc world. For some lime, progressive Iwichev.s have been taking it upon to bring lo (heir charges at, first hand those aspects of the community with which the kids will be concerned in a few operations of (he waterworks, museums, lire and police departments, courts, i'aclories. The experiments have been largely successful. Now, I'or (lie lirsl time, however, an entire school system is going to tackle the problem and will present to fry an attractive, centralized program related to the community. A committee of 50 persons in DCS IMoines, will study all phases of the city's cultural, business, commercial and political life lo formulate a digestive program of study.

The idea -'of the Dos Moines experiment will be to get away from the anti-miss system of leading children around the city to observe industry and such, or of bringing leaders in to talk to the kids without bothering DIG lack of correlation between topics. If the DCS Moincs plan works out, as it seems certain it will, it very likely be copied by school all over the country. civic and culiH.ivil leaders will bo anxious to cooperate.

In Germany, Adolf Hitler observed (he end of his first year in the chancellory. A few days ago, both men again held cdlebrations.
