W. Crabtree of the River Falls Nor mal school, that there should be a gum rack in schools. “Pupils have a right to chew gum,” President Crabtree is quot ed as saying. “Teachers do it, but fhey know when, where and how. Why not teach these convention alities to the pupils? Permit the pupils to chew gum on the play {round and on the way to and rom school. But what will the poor child do with his gum while in the recitation or assembly room? If he keeps it in his nouth, he is sure to forget him self and before he is aware of it e chewing at a lively rate. “A gum rack at the entrance of the room containing a number and a peg for each pupil, solves the problem.” 225 BOOKS GIVEN TO LIBRARY.
