The printed | Everyday Psychology BY DR. JESSE W. SPROWLS. Detours. For every obstacle in the way of easy going, two, and only two, alternatives | are given—turning back and detouring. ‘When it comes to psychology, detouring is the rule.

When a child learns that his work dis- appears without sign, he stops doing the | work, like an intelligent creature. | Children who work intensely all day rarely need homework. A bit of read- | ing, perhaps, to afford occupation and | pastime, but no more, unless the pupil | is in the higher grade. Then his home- work is assigned with care and has di- rect application to the work to be done in the class room next day, when the results of his own effort are clear to him. Children in lower grades rarely need | homework. 1In the upper grades, frcm fifth through seventh, we need home- work, but no more than can be done easily within an hour's steady work Forty-five minutes is better. No new work should be assigned for home study. A limited amount of handwrit- ing. No writing of words 50 times. In short, & little discretion must be used in these assignments. If the required work bears close relation to the childs progress in school it will be safe. (Copyright, 1931 Angel Food Cake.
