The public school authorities of C cago, who are nothing s not progress- ive, and whose innovations have more than once attracted outside attention, are now experimenting with 4. “cold- air* school. The scheme is not so re olutionary as it sounds. At the Gra- ham school in that city all the win- dows of a classroom containing pupils ranging in age from five to ten years are thrown wide open. The children, warmly dressed, study, recite and go through the usual exefcises of begin- ners. The principal in charge, an er thusfastic convert to the idea, has this to say of its practical application: “We are demonstrating just what n begin- ner can do when not supplied w heat—except, of course—on very cold days. In a warm atmosphere the chil- dren’ seem to_grow sluggish. Their brains clog. The alr is dry and un- healthy.
