These children, all of whom have

few who have hen diagnosed as feeble
mnded, are learning by leaps and
bounds at this clinic for the "motor-

usual visual or auditory method,
which works perfectly well with the
majority of students, the child Is
given the word through hie muscles.
While most children learn rapidly
through the visual or auditory paths
some children absolutely have these
paths blocked, and cannot acquire
knowledge in that way, no matter
how long and hard they try. The
klnaesthetic method is not a better
method. It Is simply the right one
for a certain definite type of person.
