Dear Sir: Mr. Bleakney and 1 were in Cor nelius on business, and decided to visit Mrs. Lula Barker, of Aloha, the teacher of the First Grade. A (juonsett Hut had been placed near the Schoolhouse for the use of the first two grades. A parti tion of plywood separated the two rooms, and the only blackboard at the opposite end. One wakeful night, Mrs. Barker planned the long wood framed blackboard, on a standard of legs, and castors, to move it here and there. Tables and chairs, child size, two desks and a piano were the furniture, with potted plants, pictures and handicraft for decarations, we found It very attractive. We were Invited to the basement of the main building where the children were at lunch, soon after eleven. W e were invited to eat, and much enjoyed the clean, nour ishing. hot and delicious lunch, and felt the taxes paid were well spent The children asked Mrs. Barker if they could read to us, so we re turned to the schoolroom, and lis tened while each child read from beautifully illustrated books. The second grade marched In, carrying their chairs, and Mrs. Barker taught music for a half hour, using rote songs, accompan ied with clapping and motion ac tion .and the rhvthm band. The method Mrs. Baker used to teach the difference between common and waits rhythm was excellent. After sixteen yeaix experience in Public School and college work I know our visit inspired and helped both teachers and pupils I have written you this, hoping it would be published to induce par ents and friends to quietly visit the schools where their children are taught with methods so d if ferent, but with such splendid re suits.
