A. Clement, Northwestern University School of Education, Tues- day of this week in a talk before A joint session of the Logan and Central schools Parent-teacher associations and the Mothers' club of the school. "The subject of changing of the Junior High school curriculum is an immense problem which is being studied and planned b}' educators in- terested in promoting education on # practical and progressive basis," Prof. Clement stated. "This movement," he said, "has been developing for the past two years." "Facts to be considered in bringing about these changes," he said, "may be listed as follows: Better prepared teacher. The reorganization or re- casting of aims and ideals. The method of teaching.^ Cross sections of human experiences " Describes Grade Plan "A certain * amount of reading, writing and arithmetic is of course essential," Prof. Clement explained, "but, after the fifth or sixth grade, something in addition to that should be required. There are from twelve to fifteen different types of Junior High schools in the United States but 6-3-3.___......--------------- . , fourth, fifth and sixth grades in the elementary groups; seventh,, eighth and ninth grades as Junior High school, and tenth, eleventh and twelfth grades as Senior High school. This would give all children the advantage of one additional year of school." Curriculum Should Vary JhL_sfiealdn8Li*tJbJslQry*-^ concluded Prof. Clement. English, social science and mathematics would probably be adopted universally. Foreign languages are not essential to all communities. It is essential that school superintendents, teachers and every person interested in educa- tion co-operate in carrying out this plan of more effective education. It is a great opportunity for the teacher. Superintendent of Schools Harper spoke briefly following Prof. Clem- ent's address, emphasizing the im- portance of raising $200 to provide ad ditional books for the Wilmette Free Public library, and particularly the branch library in the Laurel avenue school. He paid a glowing tribute t< Mrs Youngquist who is now engaged in teaching French classes in the vil- lage, the proceeds to be directed into the Library fund. sparklmt' in come seven "Come Seven" To Be Un usual Production For Beautiful Eyes Make the Use of Murine a Daily Habit.
