J. H. Van Sickle, of Springfield, Mass., in de- scribing the spread of the Gary plan of school organization in a report Jjust received by the United States Bu- reau of Education of the Department of the Interior. “Any plan that will lessen the ex- pense of housing school children makes a strong appeal to boards of estimate, school boards and the press. School boards are not will- ing, however, to be hurried into adopting, for exclusive use in a sit- uation quite different from that in whieh it originated, a plan so rad- ically different from the customary one without carefully testing its ap- plicability.” Arguments for and against the Gary plan are presented by Super- intendent Van Sickle. He says: “The Gary plan is advocated large- ly, but not exclusively, on the ground of lower cost. There are those, however, whose approval is based upon the claim that by means of a longer school day it affords to the children wider opportunities for work, study and play; that it dis- tributes the burden of teaching more evenly over the entire teaching staff, and that it affords prevoca- tional training to all children in all of the grades instead of confining such work to a small group of chil- dren in the seventh and eighth grades. “The Gary system has commended itselt to students of education for various reasons. It promises: 1. An enriched school life for every pupil. 2. A co-ordination of all exist- ing child-welfare agencies and a full- er utilization of all facilities in pres- ent public and private recreational and educational institutions. 3. A solution of the part-time problem. 4. A double school plan by which each school seat serves two children. 5. A wider use of the school plant. 6. An increase in the school day through a co-ordination of work, study and play activities. 7. A program that would invest the child’s non-academic time to greater profit and pleasure. 8. A socialized education in har- mony with progressive throught of the day. ““On the other hand, those who op- pose the immediate and wholesale adoption of the duplicate plan for the elimination of part-time express | doubt as to certain novel features of school administration which it embodies such as departmental teach- ing for all children from the first year through the eighth, instruction of groups of children by pupils in- stead of teachers, the grouping to- gether of younger and older pupils for auditorium, laboratory and work- shop exereises, the subordination of an auditorium period for class-room instruction, the omission of formal physical training, supervised play with only four teachers for twelve classes, the deferring of scholastic work for first-year children until late in the afternoon. They urge that sufficient time has not elapsed to test the worth of the schemes. “A further criticism is that out- side instruction in the home'or in the church is permitted, but that no means is provided for seeing that such instruction is the equivalent of regular schooling. “To this criticism the reply is made that it would be very unfortu- nate if the school undertook to in- sure that such instruction should be the equivalent of regular schooling, for in that case the school would be supervising religious instruction which the law expressly prohibits. The program simply provides that the child can be excused during the day to take private lessons at home or attend religious instruction, if the parent so desires. These periods are never taken from the academic work and therefore do not detract from: the regular work of the school. As in the case of “play and auditor- ium, it is simply time which, in the raditional sch6ol, the ‘child would spend upon the'‘streef. What 1s taught in these outside classes and how it is taught is not and should not be the concern of the school.” Interest in the Gary plan is by no means confined to the larger cities, Superintendent Van Sickle finds. “BEven in communities where the part-time problem is either less acute or else non-existent, and where the expenditures for schools have not be- come so burdensome as in New York, there will be decided interest in the Gary duplicate plan. This gigantic experiment in education, now in full operation in one of the smaller cities and in partial operation in the larg- est American municipality, is un- questionably of vast importance, yet the changes required in installing the system in existing schools are so radical and so expensive that school authorities will be disposed to await the result of an adequate trial in New York City before de- parting from the present policy which reserves a seat for every child.” A few months ago we noted an enormous amount of mewspaper ‘gab about “America absorbing the com- merce of the world.” Just gab. If we wanted to go down in his- tory as a false prophet the one big stunt we’d pull off would be to pre- dict an early peace in Mexico. When a fell makes a practice of knocking his home town it is time for everybody else to hand him a few. WHITE EARTH INDIANS WIN “RIGHTS” FIGHT Washington, Feb. 2.—Gus Beau- lieu, Ben Fairbanks and eighty-six other Minnesota Indians will be re- stored to the roll of the Chippewas as a result of a ruling today by the attorney general. Beaulieu, Fairbanks and the others concerned were removed from the roll and their annuities stopped as a re- sult of representations made some months ago by Special Agent Birch of the department of justice for the White Earth reservation.

A systematic cultivation of them by the people at large will make a veri- table garden of beauty out of any city. A few seeds, a little elbow exer- cise, and the work is done. The principal occupation then is & watch them grow. ‘Women invariably take the lead in the beautifying of the home and its surroundings, and we have many women in this city who are experts in this line. This summer some one .of these women is going to have the most beautiful yard in the city. ‘Who will she be? ‘We would like to see every woman in Bemidji strive to be that one. We would like to see every woman make of her place a spot that is pleasing to the eye, a spot that attracts the attention and compels the admira- tion of people as they pass by. We would like to see the husbands encourage the wives in such a laud- able undertaking by performing or securing the manual labor necessary, slight though it be. We would like to see this city converted this summer into one of the show spots of the state.
