Providing Good Books For Children
/
The .efforts of school -¿eRchers and school librar
ies to raise the plane of boys’ and girls’ reading and
to open to them “ the rich treasures that lie in
books” is set forth in the study of backgrounds
which has just been prepared for the National
Committee for the Study of Juvenile Beading. While
the purpose of the study is to point to the necessity
for more reading and better directed reading on the
part of young girls, it nevertheless acknowledges
with praise the Work of agencies which are trying
to bring character-forming literature to the atten
tion and liking of youthful readers.
In the study which the committee has made its
was found that 3 per cent of 253 junior and senior
high schools are patting forth definite efforts to
make good books available to the girls of their
schools and to encourage the reading of thebe boqks.
,
Especially interesting is 'the experiment of the
Milwaukee Vocational School, a continuation school
for boys and girls, which has made of its classrooms
substations of the school library, teachers and librar
ians uniting in the attempt to interest the pupils,
and certificates and diplomas of credits being award
ed for the completion ot a certain amount of read
ing. A* a resqlt students who never before drew
books have become regular readers, biographies,
classics and histories are receiving more attention,
fewer of the so-called lurid magazines are being
brought into the schoolrooms, and there has been a
better display of English and manners on the part
of the students.
* While some rural schools, especially those with
state aid, are providing adequate libraries, défic
iences were found in others, three out of ten coun
ties in one state reporting some schools that had no
libraries at all, while ont of 39 one-room schools in
another state nine had no library books at all, the
average number" of books per pupil was four, and
almost one-fifth of the books in these school librar
ies “ were reported a s unsuitable for use in any
grade.”
I
The great majority of the schools reported ex
cellent methods of interesting children in good
literature, such as talks and a'dvice by teachers,
literary and reading clubs, discussions, reports ana
required' book reviews, extra credit for outside
reading, lectures, reading out load in the classroom,
book exhibits, permission to read in study hours,
summer reading lists, and acting dramatic scenes
from books.—Christian Science Monitor.
------ ”T
Observe The Quarantine
It has been necessary' for the city to put on
three extra men, janitors in the various schools,
to act as quarantine officers because all residents
Of the city have not been observing, strictly, the
ordinance recently passed by the city council in
an effort to prevent infantile paralysis from getting
a start in the city.
If a person doesn’t believe in the quarantine,
that is no reason that the children of other persons,
who do believe in the quarantine, should he en
dangered. Some parents knowingly have allowed
their children to visit other homes and play with
the children there.
The children can not understand the terrible
consequences of the disease and therefore are un
able to see why they should be the objects of the
Quarantine. The parents certainly must know the
results of the infantile paralysis and if they fail to
lake such measures as may protect their children
they certainly are remiss in their duty.
Time for drastic action is here. The police are
determined that the provisions of the ordinance
shall be observed fully and they will be neglecting,
their duty if offenders are not brought into court
There has been plenty of warning. Those who do
not take full cognizance of it should be penalized.
Parents should remember that they must think
of the children of other parents as well as their
own.
The time for the quarantine was first establish-
’ed as two weeks. Unless there is fall oooperstioa
the time will be indefinite—Grants Pass Courier.
