(Brainerd photo) One System aries on their duties. The "Each One Teach One" refers to Dr. Frank Laubach's method of teaching the illiterate people in the Orient and elsewhere. "Since today's biggest conflict is a war of ideas," Dr. Laubach says, "it is not enough merely to teach people to read. We must provide reading matter which will help them to help themselves and will increase their ; understanding of what freedom means. Without the ability to read, men huddle, in a small tent of homemade opin ions." A typical Laubach team in cludes an artist and a linguist, and may have a typist and story writer, Miss Smith said. They enter a village and learn from leaders in the community the most useful, working vocabu lary. The key words are repre sented on a . chart by simple drawings of objects, and beside each is a letter. The illiterate pronounces the name of the ob ject and automatically pronoun ces the letter. Dr. Laubach calls it a1 "visual pun," the speaker said. She continued: Who decides which is the best picture for the lessons? The illiterates do themselves. Every step in making the charts, in choosing the words, sentences, and simple stories is tested by trying it out with people of dif ferent ages, occupations, and ability to learn. When they are satisfied, the artist makes the final drawings for the charts. With good, associated pictures, and simple, interesting stories, an adult illiterate can finish a lesson in 20 minutes, and a prim er in ten days or two weeks. "Dr. ' Laubach's needs for teachers is solved through his 'Each One Teach One' method, a cheap, effective way to learn, wpich aids both teacher and learner. "Dr Laubach's simplified ver sion of the story of Jesus, in 12 Dooiuets, cas been adapted , in more than 40 languages. "When the illiterate becomes literate, when the nobody be comes somebody,' what will he read? From the Literacy House in Allahabad, "tin trunk librar ies" (really tin suitcases) are sent to villages where literacy demands are growing. Hundreds of helpful booklets have been selected for village use. They have been tested on old and young. A maa may bring the "tin trunk, library" on his bi cycle, or make a tour of villages with the station wagon. Upon arrival he will open the : "li brary" and begin reading to whet appetites. One of the vil lages may offer a room for the books. With the aid of a kero sene lantern many a tired vil lager gets refreshment, informa tion, and courage to make for himself and his community a better life." Refreshments were served by Mesdames Florence Allen, Dor othea Bushnell, Eugenia Car son, Frances Klein, and Ethel Reid. DON'T MISS IT!
