SAFETY IDEA WORKS Lighthouse Device Is Spur in ContestTwo new devices for stimulating the "safety first” idea among pupils of Harrison School No. 2 recently w r ere installed by Miss Anna Pearl Bedford, teacher. A “lighthouse” was built by the students from stiff cardboard and painted in sharply contrasting stripes. An electric light was placed at the top to illuminate the numbers of the rooms with perfect traffic records. A line is drawn under the number each week that it remains at the top. If a pupil disobeys traffic regulations after school, his room is not placed on the house. Miss Bedford also devised a race track on which paper automobiles are pasted to indicate positions of the contestants in the race for the safety record. "It works,” she said. “Every Monday the hall is crowded by pupils eager for their room to be at the top. The number of complaints of the school traffic officers have been reduced greatly.”

Works of Art Made at Home Shown by Pupils
Manual Pupils Paint, Carve and Sketch Articles Out of Soap Bars. How the student-artists of Manual Training High School spend their home hours were this week revealed by displays of pencil sketches, paintings, soap models and dozens of other miscellaneous works exhibited by Artist Club members. All displays are the home work of the students. They used their own ideas in selecting models for the painting and sketches as well as woven rugs, painted table scarfs and handkerchiefs, and drawing room boats. Some of the sketches are considered by the department instructors to be among the best ever produced at the school. Those of Dale Hynes are thought particularly good. Some of his local sketches are of the unfinished War Memorial, the English Hotel and Theater, the Tabernacle Presbyterian Church, Christ Church on the Circle and the James Whitcomb Riley home. Model Figures In Soap Students exhibiting sketches of their dogs, favorite movie actors, magazine covers and other subjects are: Margaret Michael, Edward Hanson, George Figgs, Marie Shanks, Eva Coyle and Frank Henzie. Soap models are some of the most interesting works. Small intricate figures of dogs, men and emblems were carved. Special mention was made the models of George Figgs, whose work formerly was displayed at the Anderson galleries, New York City, and now are in various; cities over the country. Three boats were shown. Two, representing a Spanish galleon and Hudson’s “Half Moon,” were made by William Emmick, a freshman. He worked six weeks on one and three months on another outside school hours. The other boat, representing the historic “Half Moon,”

CITIZENSHIP IS DISCUSSED FOR P. T. A. PARLEY * Schools Teach First Lesson, Washington Principal Tells Meeting. Six “points” in citizenship training were outlined by Walter G. Gingery, principal of Washington High School, before the Parent-Teacher group of School No. 67 on “What the School Does to Train Children for Citizenship.” “In preparing children for ideal citizenship, the public schools have one distinct advantage over private schools,” he said. “The advantage is social contact. The public school is like a small town; but there is no disturbance and no policemen. The children and teachers mingle freely and they learn the first citizenship lesson. Gingery’s remaining points stressed the fact that the schools prepare pupils for economic independence, adjustment to changing conditions, wise use of leisure time, willingness to take part in civic duties, and to develop motives for idealism and service. TECH ALUMNI TO FORM High School Principal Has Plan to Organize Graduates. Reorganization of 6,000 Teclinical High School alumni is planned by Milo H. Stuart, principal and Technical alumni teachers. Groups of approximately 900 members each will be placed under guidance of seven “faculty secretaries,” who will be in direct contact with them and report all information for the “Alumni News” I colurrjn of the Arsenal Cannon.
