Furthermore, those interested in the school declare that it is but the first of many similar schools to be established in model tenement houses throughout New York, for children too young to go to the public schdols and at present compelled to vibrate between a few crowded rooms and the street, The Montessori Method is especially designed for children even as young as two years, and up Also the system was originally worked out among poor children, those handicapped by for- eo of seve! tune and by nature, These are some of the things the tenement-house school teaching to the tenement-hou children, the fine raw material which wrong influences too often fashion into juvenile offenders and adolescent gangs: Cleanli- Order. une pect for pro} erty. © Useful fea of hurtf And, what is most sign children like to go to this school.

All of them live in the three tenement houses running from No. 502 to No. 520 Fast Seventy- seventh street. So many of the ordinary school customs are reversed in the tenement house school. For instance, the teacher loenn't ring the bell to call to school the pupila,, ach of the lat- ter presses a stubby finger on the electric bell attached to the door of the converted tenements to announce his daily arrival, Then he shakes hands with the | director who admits.him, and politely wishes her good-morning, The next | | step is to remove sweater and cap jand hang them on the phoper per. | Then comes the grand toilet.
