LIFE PLAN FOR PUPILS, OBJECT OF JUNIOR HIGH Milo H. Stuart Outlines Purpose of System to Start Next Fall. “To give pupils an idea of what they want to do in life is our mission," Milo H. Stuart, assistant superintendent of schools in charge of secondary education, said Tues-

day in speaking of the junior high school system which will be started in the Indianapolis public schools next September. “We want pupils to know what their aim is by the time they finish the ninth grade.” Stuart pointed out that a great number of pupils now graduate from high school

with no definite idea of what line of w’ork they intend to follow. “They have no plans while they are in high school, so they simply jump from one course of study to another. Point Pupils for Goal “During the seventh and eighth grades of the junior high system, w'e will stress the practical uses of the principles learned during the first six years of schooling. “The ninth grade will be a guidance period, during which the pupil will try things out and get an idea of what he wants to do.” With such a background, Stuart believes pupils will go through the three upper high school grades w'ith a well-defined plan in mind. “We still are debating the method of starting the junior high plan. We might follow the plan now under way in Chicago where they have been installing the system gradually for the last seven years. They plan to complete the work in ten years more. Two Plans Weighed A second plan is to start the junior high school curriculum in the seventh grade next year, in the eighth grade the following year, and in the ninth grade the third year. “In this way the class entering the seventh grade next year will get a unified junior high school program and pupils in the eighth and ninth grades will not be confused by sudden shift in teaching methods. “The third plan calls for starting the whole thing throughout the city at one time. Bith the advantages and the difficulties of such a procedure are great." Under the plan being worked out here, Stuart pointed out, there will be no need for the building of special buildings, “Junior high school buildings,” he said, "are nice to point to and they are great for civic pride, but the important thing in the movement is the curriculum, the different outlook in teaching.”

ARRANGES SONGS FOR BOYS' GLEE CLUBS Copies Circulated Through City Schools for Groups' Use. Special arrangements of three songs for use of the boys’ glee clubs in the public grade schools have been completed by Ralph W. Wright, director of music. The numbers have been arranged so as to come within the range of the pupils’ voices. The songs are “Carry Me Back to Old Virginny,” by Bland; “All Through the Night,” a Welsh folk song; and “Billy McGaw,” an old college song. Copies of the new arrangements are being circulated through the schools this week. TRUE BLUES TO GATHER Luncheon Saturday Will Honor Shortridge Athletes.

The Liberator Published Again by 8B Group at School 50. An “edition” of The Liberator, famous Abolitionist paper of William Lloyd Garrison, was issued j Monday by the 8B pupils of Nathaniel Hawthorne school No. 50, Ohioj street and Belle Vieu place, as a ! part of their studies in the history j of the pre-Civil war days. The paper, c.ated Tuesday, Nov. 15, 1837, tells of the first rumors of the proposed annexation of Texas, of the attack made on Garrison, the publisher of the paper, by a mob of pro-slavery men, and of the opposition of John Quincy Adams to the : famous “Gag Resolutions” of congress. Many of the stories in the paper j tell of the abuse of slaves. For “local color" the paper carries advertisements of Boston stores. “The very latest in women’s styles” are offered. Drawings of the dresses were taken from pictures of Mrs. Martin Van Buren at the time of the inauguration of her husband to the presidency in 1836. Two Abolitionist poems, “Slavery” and “The Salutation,” by John Greenleaf Whittier, are included in the edition. An advertisement tells in glaring letters of a speech soon to be delivered in Faneuil hall by Wendell Phillips, orator-opponent of slavery.

PUPILS, GAMES TEACH RHYTHM, SAYSDIRECTOR Muscle Building Incidental in Physical Education: Mental Poise Is Aim. Development of rhythm, not muscle building, is the primary aim of physical education in the schools, in the opinion of Miss Ada B. Crozier, newly appointed acting director of physical education for the public schools. “Development of muscle is a byproduct,” said Miss Crozier, Tuesday. “If the pupils can learn the rhythm of exercise the ‘strong back’ part of it will take care of itself." Miss Crozier took over the leadership of the department last week, following the death of Dr. W. A. Ocker. Teamwork Gives Poise “Games calling for varying degrees of teamwork are the best developers of rhythm. The children enjoy them and learn almost unconsciously. “Many persons think that physical education is more or less a risk of life and limb. Quite the contrary. One of our foremost aims is the development of skill on the part of the pupil in taking care of himself. Miss Crozier stressed the relation between physical and mental poise. She pointed out that while many persons think of physical education as nothing but exercise of one sort or another, it really is a developer of poise. Rounded Program Planned “I mean by that,” she said, “the ability to perform under pressure. All really good athletes must be able to do it, and so must all persons who are successful in life.” Miss Crozier said she intends to carry out the policy of Dr. Ocker of a" well-rounded program of work. “We must give exeVcise to all the pupils. This means mass games and exercises. But we can’t forget for a moment the needs of each individual child. Every one of them must get the work he needs.” ORLOFF TRIO TO GIVE CONCERTS FOR PUPILS Thursday Schedule to Take Group to Schools 66, 70 and 86. Schedule of the Orloff trio for Thursday includes concerts at Henry P. Coburn School No. 66, Mary E. Nicholson School No. 70, and School No. 86.

escaped from slave territory into Ohio. Material for the paper was collected from books in the Hawthorne branch library, 70 North Mount street, with the co-operation of Miss Helen W.

Library Adds New Volumes on Uncle Sam’s Neighbor Across Rio Grande. Will Rogers says that Stuart Chase’s recent book on Mexico is the best book he ever has read on that country. This book is in the library collection, but the children’s department at the public library has some interesting books for children on Mexico and there is a great demand for all information about the country. Here are a few recent books on the subject: “Nadita,” by Mrs. Grace P. Moon. Nadita in Mexican means "Little I Nothing.” She is a lovable little ! orphan who lives where adobe | houses are painted pink and blue rto match the gay flowers growing everywhere. With Poco, her small dog, she has thrilling and mysterious adventures. Children from Bto 13 will be interested in “Nadita.” “Talking Bird,” by Idella Purnell. Paco’s grandfather was a shoemaker in Mexico and he knew countless stories of the Aztecs which he told his little grandson. The stories are | introduced in such a way as to ! create an atmosphere of modern Mexican life. “Made in Mexico,” by Susan Smith. In this book on Mexican decoration and handicraft, the | author presents the information | simply and enlivens her text with j stories and legends of early Mexico. | The illustrations are in black and j white and there are many fine pho- ; tographic reproductions. It is sim- , ply written and will be enjoyed by I children 9 and 10 years old. “The Painted Pig,” by Elizabeth Morrow. This is a Mexican picture book about Pita and Pedro who lived in Mexico. The story is simple and reveals naturally the life of the people. The illustrations are unusual and colorful and add much to the enjoyment of the book. The author is the wife of the former ambassador to Mexico and during their residence in the consulate, she learned to know and understand the Mexican people. a fn rr should go ■vn C.3 by 5 " HOUR Muaterole sale “counter-ir-ritant," ia often effective after g VHS firat application and usually g HSB draws out muscular soreness and pain by 3th hour.

Often had to lie down

CIX years ago I took Lydia E. O Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound for pains and cramps and it helped wonderfully; "After my children were born, I tried to keep up, but I often had to lie down.

S. Aid Through efforts of this group, the Smith-Hughes law was passed, giving federal financial aid to states offering vocational’ education courses. Last year, the Indianapolis schools received more than $38,000 from the federal government.
