Juneau Public School Notes (By Students of the Juneau Public School)

The following interesting articles were taken from the "School Life”' & paper published twice a month by the Department of the Interior, Bu- reau of Education, at Washington,1 D C.:

"BOY'S FROM FIFTY-TWO NA-

TIONS IN INTERNATIONAL MEET

“Scout Conference Will Bring To-, gethcr Boys From all Over the

World—Expected That Organ!-j zation Will Develop—Displays and Contests.

"Boys from 52 nations will be represented at the Internatiorfai Scout meet In London this coming summer according to an announce-

ment made public on March 11 at, Scout headquarters in New Y'ork. The Boy Scouts of America expect to be represented by 200 scouts in charge of an adequate number of leaders.

Tlie selection of 200 boys to make up the delegation, representing the Boy Scouts of America will be left to the ecout field—150 hoys to rep- resent communities where there are

Council organizations and 50 boys from the unorganized field, accord- ing do Scouting .the official maga- zine of the Scouts.

"Each of these boys must be fur- nished by his Council or troop or

parents,with, sufficient funds iq pay not. only his own expenses by rail- road to New Y’ork, by steamship to Great Britain and back but also his proportion of the overhead expens- es, of the trip,” say Scout officials.

"Displays and contests have beep arranged. The National Council will determine what contests the American boys will compete in. Af- ter the participants have been select- ed they will be placed In a prepara- tory camp and given the necessary training and instructions. This camp will probably be at Interstate Palisades Park and will be con-

ducted just before the sailing date' with experienced and able leaders in charge.

“The displays are to be represent- ed by teams of Scouts, the teams

* consisting of not less than 24 or

more than 150 boys each. Each display must fill the arena and none must take more than 15 min- utes to show. Marks will be given tor the most original treatment of any of the following subjects: Fire fighting ambulance accidents, pf all sorts, such as tralfi collisions .aero-

plane accidents shipwrecks, floods, earthquakes runaway horses, cook- ing and other original troop dis-

play. “It is probable that with the

Scouts will go some of the men

most prominent in the movement on

this side'of ■ the water, including Colin H. Livingston, Mortimer Scliiff and James West. John Jacob Astor, who has a 900-acre park In Kent, lias put Ills place at the disposal of the American hoys while they are

in England. That an international organiza-

tion of boys will develop as the re-

sult. of the London Scout meet Is the /fexpectatlon of Sir Robert Bad- en-Powell and others arranging the conference."

The greatest industry of our coun-

try today is education and we have learned front the examination of our

draft recruits that there lias been little care in general given to child welfare or to the protection of the health of the youth of our country thus engaged.—(C. H. Mayo. M.L).)

Visual Education Department (Charles F. Pyo Secretary Iowa State

Teachers’ Association) “The first meeting of the Visual

Education Department of the Na- tional Education Association was held one afternoon in the ballroom of the Hotel Hollenden.

Charles Rouch, of the Iowa State College at Ames, the first speaker on the program. His appeal was for the scientific study of visual ma- terial and method ind for a large place for the new department. ‘Much has been said about the use of films by enthusiastic educators, who,’ he said, ‘have had visions of young America being educated by the un- winding reels. 8o much has been Maimed and «o very Httlc proved

that wo arc sometimes forced to at- tribute the statements of visual in- atruetionists to over-exercised en-

thusiasm or to highly imaginative minds Which substitute fiction for fact. No one questions the relative importance of visual as compared with aural or any other sense stim- ulus, yet no 'one actually knows how effective the cinema or the stereoptican really may be as a ve-

hicle for teachhg. No intensive and extensive study has been made which can command the attention and Wholesome respect of the teaching profession. Occasslontilly a teacher or a supervisor has attempted to evaluate the motion picture ,the stereoptican slide and the stereo- graph but no elaborate, highly scien- tific study lias ever been made which lias taken Into consideration a sufficiently large group of indi- viduals to give anythng like an in- telligent report worthy of more than passing notice If. as the result of this conference tills department can

Ido nothing more than create suffic- ient interest to begin a nation-wide study of visual instruction it will

i have done a most commendable piece cf work."

Dr. J. Paul Goode, of the Univer-

I sity of Chicago, reviewed the field of visual material. He demonstrat-

: ed clearly the place that the stcr-' I ograpli the slide and the cinema oc-

ettpy in the learning process of the( i child t

I J. 11. Francis,. superintendent of

, schools, Columbufe. Ohio, spoke on' I "Concreteness of '•Education." lie ; j made an urgent appeal for Ulus-i

I trative material ill the schois. j I Supt. Frank A. Game, Bay Cityv,> Mich., as the leader of the round ta-

ble discussion, presented a study of work done in the Bay City, Mich, tchools, showing concretely how the.

I use of visual material had cut down. failures and decreased the cost of' Fchool maintenance.’’

Eighth Grade Life Career Class

Wednesday of last week the Eighth Grade went on a visit to the Juneau Dairy to find out just how the milk Is produced and handled, and also to learn a little of the different (

openings of which there arc in the agricultural line. Hey went through the ham and taw the dRtle, but j

were a little bit leary of them—es- pecially the girls. Especially they admired a pedigreed Holstein bull, but kept at a distance from him. Mr. Smith assured them that he was

perfectly safe but it did no good, although he was fastened to a large chain. They were given a pint of milk to sample. While this was go- ing on the students agreed that the agriculture business should be a

study of several excursions. Next week they will visit the upper part of the dairy and lenrn how and what the cattle are fed. Mr. Smith loaned them a few dairy papers so

they could gain more information on the dairy and agriculture busi- ness.

Tennis Court Ball As wo all know (lie Tennis Court

CHARMING PICTURE

| AT LIBERTY l Shirley Mason, the vivacious cotn-

^edienne has scored a distinct hit by ; her clever work In her new Para-1 I mount picture “The Rescuing Angel,"!' which will ho shown at the Liberty theatre (onight and Wednesday

This picture heads* a long list of

j successes in which Miss Mason has starred. Her work in “Goodbye

! B|H,” in which she co-starred with j ; ffrnest. Truax will be recalled by film patrons.

In her latest production Miss Mason has an excellent part in an

excellent adaptation of the play of the same name which was written by Glare Kummer. In the role of Angela., the charming and winsome daughter of a bankrupt, Miss Mason

I has an excellent opportunity to dis i play her talents as a screen com-

j edionno. Nor is she lacking in the power successfully and forcefully to portray the character from an emo- tional standpoint.

Miss Mason's sparkling personality makes the picture teem with inter- est throughout. Site is excellently supnorted, Forrest Stanley being the loading man.
