Dec. 14.—Five and six-year-olds attending the Horace Mann elementary school at Teachers’ College, Co lumbia University, are pecking out their spelling and writing lessons on portable typewriters, following installation last week of 80 machines in the school in a pedagogical experi ment. Dr. Rollo G. Reynolds, principal, in telling of the experiment, said the children seem to have taken to the idea readily. The pupils seem to learn to spell much more quickly than if left with pencil and paper, he finds. With no definite proceduce to fol low. each teacher Is free to conduct her own experiments with the chil dren. It is up to her to determine If the machines aid the pupils. It will be several weeks before the practice is in effect in all rooms. No system of typing Is insisted on but the touch method is being impressed on the pupils by sugges tive means. Large charts showing correct positions of the fingers are placed in the front of the class rooms and a stenographer makes regular visits to each child show- FRIDAY, DECEMBER 14, 1928 ing it the fastest and easiest method. Dr. Reynolds believes that the small children will develop their own touch system and perhaps in vent an entirely new form. Special observers watch the pupils closely. Dr. Reynolds asked on six-year-old boy: "What are., you typing . there, young man?’’ *'l can’t spell two words and I’m learning to type them.’’ was the answer, v FALL KILLS MINER POTTSVILLE, Pa.

TEACHERS M INSTITUTE William John Cooper. State super intendent of public schools in Cali fornia, opened the teachers insti tute for local public schools last night, in the assembly hall of the Armstrong High Schotrt, With an address on the development of human personality. Tracing the development of a child from infancy with its imper fect body and mind, Superintendent Cooper found that the final test came in the power of right choice of a conduct of life. “Perhaps the world has enough high-powered minds,’’ said the speaker,” and teachers can aid best by fostering the development of bodies that function well, minds that are Informed and personalities that serve humanity.” He was Introduced by’ Dr. Frank W. Ballou, who with G. C. Wilkin son. frist assistant superintendent: E. ’A. Clarke, assistant superin tendent. and M. G. Lucas, president of the Columbia Educational Asso elation, also spoke. ; »t.
