I can think of nothing that
American life needs more than
sauce intelligence, coupled with
good humor and a real, but not
solemn, appreciation of excel-
lence in the arts.?Gerald W.
Johnson.
That does not mean we have
had the depression because a few
thousand corporation executives
made a lot of money during the
boom.?Walter Lippman.

able to get reports on the pros-
pective graduate in whom he
may be interested.

"Education for the New Social,
Political and Economic Order"
will be the theme for the second
State-Wide Educational meeting
to be held here on April 13 and
14. The object of this year's
program is to attempt to solve in
some measure the vital problems
which confront the public
schools in their effort to prepare
the children of North Carolina to
meet the demands of the new or-
der. A large representative
group of people actively engag-
ed in school work and others in-
terested in the educational prob-
lems of the state will gather to
discuss these problems.
At the two general sessions,
Mr. M. K. Fort, director of Train-
ing Schools here, will preside.
Other faculty members who will
appear on the program are Miss
Elizabeth Hyman and Mr. M. V.
Mulholland. President Wright

of April 13th.
An excellent program has been
prepared. Including the two
general sessions and two round

will be composed of those most
vitally interested in administra-
tive problems, county and city
superintendents. Supt. E. L.

meetings, and Supt. Clyde A. Er-
win, of Rutherford County, will

WORKING HARD ON PROGRAM
The Commencement Committee has
been working hard to produce the program
that will bring the college year to a close.
An elaborate pageant will be given to cele-
brate the twenty-fifth year of the founda-
tion of the college. Practically the whole
faculty and administrative force are work-
ing on some phase of the presentation. The
steering committee cooperates with the oth-
er various committees in helping to plan and
work out in an efficient way the unfolding
of the history of the institution during its
twenty-five years of existence. This pre-
sentation will be one of the biggest under-
takings that the college has ever attempted
on this line, the faculty have given their
time and put forth much effort to make this
pageant a success. Students should show
their appreciation by responding willingly
when they are called on to help.
IT'S NONE OF BY BUSINESS
BUT?
Wednesday, April 11, 1934.
It is quite gratifying to learn that two
of the March Graduates have already se-
cured positions.
Never in the past was it so impossible
to be an atheist as it is today.?John Haynes
Holmes.
College athletics should not be the ma-
jor objective of educational institutions.?
Dr. Harry Woodburn Chase.
You might say that the United States
has passed from scarcity of economy to an
economy of plenty.?Dr. Harvey N. Davis.
Students who use tennis courts are ask-
ed to use them correctly. They were built
for the benefit of the students, and the least
they can do is to abide by rules that are set
up for them to play by.
The hope of ages to come lies in the
wide education of the child, who, having
been taught how to think instead of what
to think, will become impervious to subtle
suggestions from the destructive forces that
beset us.?Dr. John Huston Finley.
It is no mark of disrespect to George
Washington that we should attempt to im-
prove our machine of government as we
have improved the machinery of industry.
Government, like industry, must keep pace
with the times.?Senator George W. Norris.
TO MAKE CHANGE IN CALENDAR
Plans are on foot to make a change in
the Calendar for the year 1934-35. Propo-
sals have been made to the effect of giving
a three day holiday between the winter and
spring term, with the Easter holiday re-
maining the same. A longer time will prob-
ably be given for Thanksgiving and Christ-
mas.
Dr. L. R. Meadows, head of the English
department and who is on the catalogue
staff thinks that the changes are advisable.
SUPPORT FIELD DAY
Field Day will be a great day if every-
one will give his cooperation. Even if
you are not an athlete or are not a mem-
ber of the athletic association, there are a
number of events that require no experience
whatever. 1-2 point will be given just for
entering an athletic contest. Although you
do not win, you will be helping your class
just by entering.
Everything possible is being done by
the W. A. A. with the help of the College
Athletic Committee to run the day in an
efficient manner. Events must be on sche-
duled time, and students are asked to give
their cooperation to make the day a success.
In all probability it will be made an an-
nual event, if it is successful.
COOPERATION AND LEADERSHIP
Youth is continually experimenting
with the new. A high school graduate is
experimenting with the new when he enters
college; he continues to do so when he meets
new situations, and new people. Crisis that
occur in his life are met by experimentation
and he hopes that it will turn out for the
best.
To make a law by which experiments
must be followed is a dangerous business.
New stimuli demand new responses. But
cooperation under leadership is necessary,
and not obedience to an inflexible law.
Strong leaders who guide the mental trend
of youth are people who have, themselves
performed many experiments; probably a
goodly number of them have not been suc-
cessful, but through experience they have
met a situation that enables them to better
guide other people.
There is no one clear path in guiding
one's future welfare. There must be ex-
perimentation and human cooperation under
leadership.
BEAUTIFYING CAMPUS
The College is putting forth much ef-
fort and money to beautify our campus.
Those students who were here three years
ago, can see what a tremendous improve-
ment has been made since then. With the
addition of Wright's Circle, the oval in front
of the Austin Building, the many shrubs,
flowers and trees that have been planted
have been steps towards more beautiful col-
lege grounds. The new curbings. driveway,
and granite gateways recently added are all
a part of the new beauty.
With the coming of Spring, the most
delightful season of the year, college stu-
dents should check up on the appearance of
the campus. The blooming flowers and
trees that are fastly becoming green will
show up the unslightly paper and other
waste in a detracting contrast.
The gala commencement this spring will
attract many visitors to our campus. Alum-
nae that have not visited their Alma Mater
for many years will come back for the oc-
casion. Let them see the grounds at their
best advantage. Students can in many
ways cooperate.
WOMEN IN BUSINESS
The growth of the feminist movement in
recent years in America has brought about
many changes. There was a time when a
woman attempting to enter business was
only laughed at, now she follows any pro-
fession that she chooses, and is honored for
it.
Quoting an editorial in Campus Com-
ments, "The President's wife is a notable
example of the successful woman. Mrs.
Roosevelt as hostess, teacher, mother, grand-
mother, authoress, lecturer, business woman,
sociologist, radio speaker, adviser and
friend, exemplifies the modern woman who
is successfully developing her potentialities
to the utmost degree
There are scores of other women who
are making use of their different talents.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh, Madame Curie,
and Maude Adams are well known exam-
ples. These women are among nose who
have made definite contributions to their
careers. They have proven that the business
woman with her clear-mindedness, execu-
tive ability, personality and charm is an as-
set to civilization.
Girls of to-day are the women of to-
morrow. It is for them to carry on, and con-
tinue to prove that life is more interesting
and beneficial to the woman who makes the
most of her opportunities.
The other night I was walking
through Cotten Hall and stop-
ped by Janie Hester's room. She
seemed to be studying diligent-
ly. "Shine" Redfearn walked in
and said, "Janie can you crawl
on your hands and knees?" Ja-
nie looked disgusted and said
"Sure, I can "Shine" walked
closer to the door and grinned,
"Well, don't. It's babyish Janie
pitched a book at her retreating
form, just missing her, but don't
quote me.
John Kapelec seems to have
had a misconceived idea. I heard
a girl ask him if anyone ever
told him how wonderful he was.
John smiled fondly and said, "No
I don't believe they ever have
I moved up closer, just sure that
I was going to hear something
very romantic, but can you ima-
gine my surprise when she said,
"Then where'd you ever get the
idea?" I don't know what John
did or said, I didn't wait to see.
I'm afraid it wasn't complimen-
tary, but don't quote me.
Helen Boomer says she guess-
es that the hole in the doughnut
was invented by some fresh air
fiend, but don't quote me.
Say, have you noticed the
black circles under the eyes of
certain girls since Easter. Looks
like they would catch up on
their sleep sometime, but don't
quote me.
By the looks of the coffin late-
ly, looks as if somebody would
make money if they put up a
cigarette factory on the campus.
Some girls are a,uite adept at
ducking cigarettes when a Coun-
cil member comes near?long
practice maybe. But they can't
clear up the fog of smoke all in
a minute?maybe they want a
smoke screen, but don't quote
me.
I heard one new council mem-
ber, say the first night she "went
up" that she was as scared as if
she was going to be restricted.
Whatta woman!
And did you hear about the
Freshman that was asked on
exam to quote some piece of
poetry, and give the name of
the poem, the author and his
nationality? Well, she couldn't
think of all required items so she
composed a verse and created an
author to it. She passed the
course, but she doesn't know
whether the dear Teacher caught
on or not. That's true, so I'll add
"don't quote me" merely to keep
in practice.
Somebody said that his idea
of a miracle was a woman who
wouldn't talk, but don't quote
me.
After all that pretty weather
Easter it's started to rain all
over again, it seems many are
the broken hearted 'cause they
can't wear new Easter finery,
but don't quote me.
And I hear quite a number of
things happened on the Wash-
ington trip?that little Freshman,
Louise Taylor, seems to have en-
joyed the trip very much. But
there's a few things she can't
figure out. She was heard to
remark, "I do wish I knew who
the Unknown Soldier was and
"what river is the Potomac?" It's
a shame that she can't satisfy
her curiosity, (but don't quote
me). If any student can help
her, I'm sure she'll appreciate it.
Wonder if she's asked Jimmy
Davenport?
Mr. Cummings seems to be
playing the part of the absent-
minded professor lately. He
rushed home one day last week
to get his car, and all the time
it was sitting out in front of the
Austin Building. Mrs. Cum-
mings just laughed and laughed
'cause she knew all the time
where it was, (my apologies to
little Aubrey for infringing on
his rights.)
And speaking of little Aubrey,
did you know that a namesake
of his, now lives in Cotten Hall.
Mary Delle Harris has the honor.
At the University of Oregon,
the penalty of snitching from
the library is the deprivation of
their shoe laces, which are then
used to tie the pencil to the desk.
That might work effectively
here if some of the students
would try it, but don't quote me.
Well, the after Easter parade
has started and so much white is
being seen that I'm about to
believe I'm in heaven instead of
at E. C. T. C. Whatta compari-
son, but don't quote me. Why
some of them are even strutting
diamonds. The Easter bunny
surely was kind to them.
?Don't you think the silliest
question that can be asked is
"Did you have a big time?" Af-
ter a holiday.
?Some girls seem to be proud
of the reputation they are ac-
quiring.
?I hear that science class has
proved that a kiss is very un-
sanitary?but heavens, a lot of
people seem to want to die early.
?There seems to be some objec-
tions, on the part of some stu-
dents, to putting flood lights
around the lake.
?Some people seem to be migh-
ty dumb on April Fool's Day.
?I wonder who the girl was
that couldn't get her check cash-
ed, and didn't know the name of
a certain river near Washington,
D. C.
?Some girls seem to be trying
to create an impression by com-
ing back after a holiday and
not wearing any make-up and
painting circles under the eyes
just to make us think they've
been dissipating?dumb?
?The Easter Parade was delay-
ed a week at E. C. T. C, on ac-
count of the Easter bunny being
away.
?Someone heard that someone
else at a certain college had ten
whole bucks.
?I just can't understand these
gals that get orchids for Easter.
?Some of these freshmen can't
realize yet that they are in col-
lege??and they're not all fresh-
men either.
?I wonder who the council
member is that is going to kill a
big one when the new council is
installed?
?Speaking of council members,
I wonder if any of the new mem-
bers will have a guilty cons-
cience.
?Speaking of the faculty, they
are working on some more plays
?it couldn't be any bigger suc-
cess than the ones they gave last
year, but I'm sure it will be as
good.
Student Opinion
THINGS WED LIKE TO KNOW
Why does Ridenhour want to
hasten home from every ball
game, just to walk the campus
by himself?
Why has Mr. M. L. Wright had
so much trouble planning trips
for his Sociology classes to go
to the State Hospital?he never
has been able to get them there?
Why has one co-ed who used
to be very fond of a certain
brunette now showing affection
for a red-head?
What girl embarrassed herself
by calling Mr. Cummings "Jim-
mie B" on the Washington trip?
And on the same trip who
were the three girls who walked
down the Washington Mounment
to be with three young men
from New York?
How did the talkative Fresh-
man who likes vegetable soup so
well, enjoy sitting on the escu-
lator?
Why were the three certain
girls so anxious to ride with Mrs.
Proctor, back from Washington?
Dear Editor:
At some theatres they some
times run, before the picture a
statement to this effect "Silence
is golden, you are asked to re-
frain from talking to your neigh-
bor during the picture?it is an-
noying to other people Maybe
if we had a statement like that
to run before our pictures on
Saturday night that it would
serve as a reminder to some stu-
dents to keep quiet. Even if
they are not enjoying the pic-
ture, they might remember that
all tastes are n-t alike and that
someone else might like it. But
they surely can't enjoy it if
there is a constant buzz and
chatter somewhere near. Last
Saturday night, I was sitting un-
der the balcony and there was so
much noise that it was almost
impossible to hear anything that
the players were saying.
When students come to the
college for the first time they
are given a series of courtesy
talks by student officers. Among
the things that are asked of
them is that they be quiet dur-
ing the entertainments given
here. The. regular Saturday
night picture show is a form of
entertainment and if they show
courtesy to those sitting near
them, they will refrain from
talking during the pictures. If
you don't like the picture, my
advice is to go to sleep!
Dear Editor:
It seems to me that it is a good
thing that some definite steps
have been taken to stop the con-
tinuous lateness at meals. The
same students are late over and
over again. This is a bad prac-
tice that should be stopped. The
dining room girls have enough
to do without waiting on girls
who could get to meals on time
if they would only make a little
effort. Every dormitory stu-
dent on the campus knows what
time meals are served and it is
his duty to be there on time.
Maybe now, since they have been
asked not to come in at all if
they can't get there on time,
that those tardy students will
stop their constant lateness.
If the motto of our school is
"On Time" we should practice
it. Everything that is efficient
is run on a schedule, and we as
prospective school teachers must
be efficient or else lose our jobs.
Perhaps being on time to meals
may seem to be a trivial thing
to some students, but we have
compulsory meals here, with the
exception of breakfast and we
ought to be there on time.

I've heard that in the Spring
a young man's fancy turns to
love. Our co-ed's didn't wait
for spring. For instance Theo
and W. O. seem to be able to
make time in all kinds of weath-
er, but don't quote me.
I've heard that Senior "Y"
cabinet lost their dignity this
week-end at State. I heard
that five of them rented a
room at the Sir Walter and two
of them rode up in the elevator
while the other three walked up
the stairs, but don't quote me.
Some system and not bad at that.
President Wright asked the
boys to eat their cigarette butts
if they couldn't get rid of them
any other way. Well, I knew
they had swell appetites but I
must say I didn't know they had
reached that stage.
Dear Editor:
I thought that there was a rule
on the campus that prohibited
dating in the lobby of the Cam-
pus Building. Yet, nearly every
night there are couples sitting
around in the lobby. I see this,
for I go over there nearly every
night. Why don't the students
have more respect for the rules
of the college. They elected the
student council officers, who un-
der the school council made the
rules, and yet these same stu-
dents go ahead and break them.
Would they be called disloyal or
just lawless? If some steps were
taken to abolish this then in all
probability it would disap-
pear. It seems to me that some-
thing should be done to stop it.
PRESIDENT WRIGHT
TO SPEAK TO W. A. A.
President Wright will deliver
an address on Intercollegiate
Atheltics for women to the Wo-
man's Athletic Association in the
Austin auditorium on Wednes-
day evening at 6:30 o'clock. At
a meeting of the W. A. A. last
year President Wright stated
that there was a chance of hav-
ing intercollegiate sports in the
college this year. Last fall he
gave his permission for the girls
to play six games this year with
the possibility of making inter-
collegiate athletics of women a
permanent part of the sport life
of the institution. The six games
played were all won.
Besides the address by Presi-
dent Wright a very interesting
program has been planned for
the meeting. Mary Ella Bunn
will give a reading, May Hearne
and Rebecca Pittman a dance,
and Will Higdon, President of the
Association, will present plans
for the Field Day that is to be
held this spring.

The tennis lovers at E. C. T.
C. will probably soon be able to
participate again in their favor-
ite sport. With the completion
of the new courts, all students
will have a chance to play ten-
nis?unless some individuals try
to monopolize this privilege.
In past years, many students
and members of the faculty have
enjoyed tennis, although they
played on courts that were not
in the best condition. This year
the courts are being rebuilt and
conditioned, and it is expected
that a larger number of students
will become interested in play-
ing tennis.
Tennis courts properly taken
care of help to beautify a col-
lege campus perhaps as much as
any other one thing. However,
ill-kept tennis courts detract
much from campus beauty, and
indicate an institution that is
not as careful and progressive as
is proper. With this in mind, all
students or faculty members
playing on the courts should ob-
serve the rules made by the E.
C. T. C. Athletic Board.
If the college is financially un-
able to care for the tennis courts
after they are completed, the
Athletic Association or Tennis
Club should assume this respon-
sibility; otherwise the condition
of the courts may not reflect cre-
dit upon those organizations
created for the purpose of for-
warding athletics at E. C. T. C.
The East Carolina Teachers
College baseball team opened
its campaign here February 27th,
and was handed a 7-4 defeat
by Guilford College.
The Quakers gained an early
four-run lead with the aid of E.
C. T. C. errors, and bunched
blows for three more tallies in
the seventh inning. The scoring
by the Teachers came in the
ninth, after two were out.
Charles Cobb, pinch-hitting
tripled to send in two runs and
to start a ninth inning rally. An-
other three bagger by Kapelec,
and two doubles featured in the
retalliation.
"Lefty" Dunn, E. C. T. C.
hurler, gave seven hits and fan-
ned seven. He walked only three
men during the game. The Guil-
ford pitcher, Weston, allowed
nine hits and fanned five. He
was rather generous with free
passes to first, passing seven.
Jimmie Johnston hit two sin-
gles and a double to lead the
Teachers at the bat. Kapelec
hit a triple and a single for E.
C. T. C.
Although the Teachers have
been practicing but a short
while, they showed in the contest
that their playing needs only the
polishing which comes from
steady drilling.

Six double tennis courts, that
will accommodate twenty-four
players, are rapidly nearing com-
pletion under the supervision of
the Athletic Board. They are
located on the back campus?
four between Jarvis Hall and
the Infirmary, one behind Wil-
son Hall and another behind the
dining hall.
When completed the courts
will be available to all E. C. T.
C. students. The students tak-
ing advantage of this privilege
are requested to take better care
of the courts than was evidenced
last year.
Mr. R. C. Deal, Chairman of
the Athletic Board, stated last
week that the same rules used
last year to govern play on the
courts would continue in effect
this year. The rules are:
1. That students playing on
the courts be bonified members
of one of the Athletic Associa-
tions, or the Tennis Club.
2. That students playing on
the courts wear heelless rubber-
soled shoes.
3. That courts not be lined off
with sticks, etc. (Lime will be
provided for this use.)
SCORE IS 8-3
In the second contest of this
season, the E. C. T. C. baseball
team lost to Louisburg College
by an 8-3 decision.
The Pirates were held to four
hits by "Doc" Weldon, Louisburg
twirler. These were accounted
for by Johnson, Kapelec, Hod-
ges and Ridenhour. Johnson's
double came in the ninth inning
when he drove in two runs for
E. C. T. C.
Fearing, with a pair of doub-
les and four runs batted in, head-
ed Louisburg's attack.

After much discussion a stand-
ardization of rings has been at-
tained. The present Junior Class
at the beginning of the year
planned to buy rings according
to its own choice but was un-
able to reach a satisfactory-
agreement with the companies
with which it conferred. It was
finally decided to select a stand-
ard ring for the college. This
was done by a number of com-
mittees which represented all the
classes. A joint decision was
reached by these committees and
a permanent selection was made.
In the future all "D" Class rings
will be like those of the class of
this year, 1934. All Senior rings
will be like those of the Senior
class of 1930. The only differ-
ence between the two rings is
that the "D" class ring does not
bear the college seal as does
the Senior ring, and there is a
slight difference in the cutting of
the stones. Juniors have lately
been ordering their rings through
the Stationery Store where all
orders will be made in the fu-
ture. The Star Engraving Com-
pany, of Houston, Texas, has
the contract for furnishing
rings.

change was made in the other
specifications as to air pressure,
weight, general shape, or long

Last fall various schools or-
dered balls of smaller circumfer-
ence than the specifications pro-
vided. A nation-wide canvas of
coaches was made and the com-
mittee found a popular desire
for a change in the ball. The
new specifications seemed to
meet the approval of the major-
ity of coaches.

The change in the ball will
undoubtedly aid the forward
passes, and more teams may
build their offence around a
"passing attack" next fall.
Few changes have been made
in the ball, Langford said, since
the early days of football when
it was specified to be a "rolate

ber bladder. The standardiza-
tion of equipment evolved the
present specifications.

Baxter Ridenhour, star foot-

E. C. T. C, this season, has been
chosen captain of the 1934 base-
ball team.
Ridenhour played with form
and ability during the entire bas-
ketball season, and received
praise from many spectators as
well as his team-mates. His
playing in the first two baseball
contests indicates that again he
will be a deciding factor in the
success of an E. C. T. C. athletic
team. At the present he is do-
ing good work holding first base.
Ridenhour is a Junior here,
and is doing well scholastically.
Before coming to E. C. T. C. in
the Fall, he attended Ruther-
ford College.
ers College on Sunday morning
of commencement, June 3.
He is a leader in various co-
operative movements looking to
better social, industrial and reli-
gious associations. He is a splen-

logical liberal school of today
whose quiet but effective work
is definitely eliminating from
our social and religious life many
of our prejudices and antipathies

tee on Inter-racial Relationships.
He has been an untiring worker
for the union of Christian Pro-

Easton, Pa. (NSFA)?Taking a
step unprecedented in the annals
of Lafayette campus activities,
all of the members of Student
Council last week signed a writ-

which are to take place later in
the spring.
The move is in line with the
trend toward a cleanup of cam-
pus politics. "It's prime pur-
pose says the Lafayette, offi-

In signing the pledge, the
Student Council members are
obligated to choose the man
whom they think most capable
for the office and n?t to allow
any other factors to influence
them. It is expected that the"
pledge will attain its objective
quite fully since not only all the
voting members, but also all the
candidates for the positions have
taken the oath.

The Columbia Scholastic Press
Association in it's Tenth Annual
Convention compared college
newspapers of an individual
class and rated them according
to their relative standing with
reference to other entries. Pre-
vious standing in the contest was
not considered in judging the
current issues. The sole pur-
pose of this contest was to give
positive constructive criticism.
The scoring points have been es-
tablished after a study of what
makes a newspaper. Any divis-
ion that is impossible to run in.
a particular college papers not
detrimental to fin? scoring of
the same. Fr instance, in some
schegfs, sports and advertising
too are not available, but these
are not counted off in the rat-
ing by the judges.
The score sheet is composed of
criticisms of make-up, writing
(technique and content), adver-
tising and general considerations.
These items have a total score of
1000 points. The rating of the
Teco Echo is given here. Make-
up received 185 points, 427 on
writing, 120 on advertising and
30 on general considerations.
These points totalled 762 out of
the 1000.
In considering the make-up,
the first to be judged is the
front page. Well balanced head-
lines that are appropriately
worded, stories effectively plac-
ed, and the use of cuts received
due attention. Make up of the
other pages and the proofreading
to catch typographical errors
finish the general appearance.
The second division was con-
cerned with the technique of the
writing. Content principles rat-
ed were good English, coming
events anticipated, timeliness,
and editorializing avoided in
news stories. News, sports, fea-
ture and editorials were all dis-
cussed under the second division.
Many of the schools that re-
ceived a higher rating than East
Carolina Teachers College, have
journalism classes or paid staff
officials.

James A. Keech, who was for-
merly in charge of the practice
high school connected with the
college here, is now instructor of
Physics and Chemistry at the
Keene State Normal School in
Keene. New Hampshire. He con-
tributes the following article
based on his experience in grad-
ing the work of students in
Science. Mr. Keech is a grad-
uate of the University of Ver-
mont and has an advanced de-
gree from Columbia. He is also
a candidate for the degree of
Doctor of Philosophy from the
same institution. He has taught
in secondary schools of Vermont,
Connecticutt and New York. The
article will be of interest and
value to science teachers and
prospective teachers of the sub-
ject. It appears in a recent is-
sue of the Keene Kronicle, stu-
dent newspaper of that school.
The Oral Recitations
The oral recitation presents
some difficulties which make it
undesirable for use in measuring
achievement in science work.
The first difficulty is that
when the teacher asks a question
of a pupil in class that question
is of no use in testing another
pupil.
Secondly, if Johnny answers
the question incompletely, let us
suppose that he answers about
one-half of the question, how
much is his recitation worth?
Well, most teachers, I think
will attempt to give him a per-
centage mark. Will it be 50
percent? Probably not. What
Johnny receives as a mark for
his recitation will largely depend
upon how the teacher feels to-
ward Johnny at that time, on
how the teacher's digestive ap-
paratus is functioning. and
whether Johnny is ordinarily a
good student or not. So Johnny
receives anywhere from. 5u per-
cent to somewhere above the
passing grade for his recitation.
Thirdly, suppose that the
teacher then calls on Mary to
complete the recitation, which
she does in fine style. How
much is Mary's recitation worth?
Well, Mary might not have re-
membered anything about the
topic to which the question re-
ferred until Johnny made his
recitation, then with the sugges-
tions made by the boy she was.
able to complete the topic. May-
be she knew only the half that
Johnny did not know. Is her
recitation worth 100 per cent?
Written Work
Papers which are handed in
at the beginning of the period
are sometimes thrown in the bas-
ket as soon as the pupils are out
of sight. Or. the teacher takes
them home and the pupils never
see them again. Or, the teacher
takes them home and corrects
them, sometime, and a week or
so later the pupils get them back
?when they have forgotten
about them completely.
The quiz falls in this category.
Some teachers give quizzes be-
cause they don't feel like teach-
ing on some particular day. They
come to class and without any
previous thought upon the sub-
ject proceed to write the quiz
questions upon the board. The
answers to the questions are
probably so long and involved
that the teacher will not feel like
grading the papers or if she does
attempt to grade them the grades
are useless because he cannot
grade the papers twice alike.
Final Examinations
The final examination comes
in for more consideration by the
teacher. Still, the average teach-
er's examination is rather sub-
jective with its requirements for
discussions and descriptions and
choices of questions and small
sampling of the subject matter
to be tested.
I. I have solved the problem
of the oral recitation, so far as
I am concerned. I don't attempt
to score it. The only recognition
which I make of the oral recita-
tion is to record some note in
the rank-book after the name of
the pupil who makes real con-
tributions to the class discuss-
ings. I use these in the final ana-
lysis of the grades to be given
at the end of the marking period.
If, however, I wish to ask
questions in class, concerning
the topic under discussion, I ask
such questions as can be answer-
ed briefly and to the point. I
usually manage to ask questions
the answers to which as the
pupils give them are cither right
or wrong, and can be scored as
such. Those answers I ask the
pupils to write down on a piece
of paper, all at the same time.
We then score all the answers
at the same time immediately.
The results are that all of the
pupils are scored on the same
question at the same time under
the same conditions. (They score
their own papers.) They know
immediately the answer correct-
ly stated. The teacher learns
immediately whether or not he
has put across the subject matter
in hand and can act accordingly
by reteaching if necessary. I
allow the pupils to score them-
selves one point for each correct
answer item. These points I
then enter in my rank book,
where they accumulate until the
end of the marking period.
2. My students are always giv-
en credit for home work. The
home work consists of problems,
mainly. Sometimes I have them
write out d? tail) : i

which they receiv
