NEW YORK. Dec. 12.—A wonderful
school or laboratory in Rome for the
.study of child psychology and child de
velopment Is the aim of Dr. Marla
Morttessori, the originator of the Alor-
tessori method of teaching children,
who now is in the United States.
Dr. Monteasori, a sweet-faced, moth
erly little woman, stated that part of
the funds for the laboratory project
will be raised by a lecture tour in this
country.
“As a physician, ’ said Dr. Alcn-
tessori, explaining the method, “I
came to the realization that any ped
agogical system that was to be of any
permanent value must be based upon
the observation of life in the individu-
a Only by knowing life in the in
dividual could we hope to develop P.
and t-o that end it must be studied
during the formative period.”
As tne biologist drew his conclu
sions. so Dr. Montessori decided to
work. To that end.she placed the chil
dren in an environment where all the
equipment was reduced to such a
small measure that they could man
age it without assistance and be as
responsible as grown-ups.
The children were then permitted 'o
gain impressions, through the sense
and appropriate the world around
them accurately, getting a propev
foundation for their lives. They thus
gain their •“ducation by a natural
process of living, and not artificially.
They are not taught, but develop ana
grow, learning being incidental.
“They do exactly what you do after
leaving school,” was the way Dr. Mou-
teesorl summed it up. “No rewards
or punishments are necessary, and
there is no truanej. The children
have freedom, but not license. The
road to freedom merges into the ro
j to discipline.”

Eat Less Meat and

CONGRESSMAN
Food experts to-day heartily in
dorse the advice. “Eat nuts and
live cheaply,” given by Congress
man B. P. Harrison, of the Sixth
Mississippi District, as a solution
for the high cost of living.

lowing up his advice by distribut
ing among his colleagues busheis
of Mississippi pecans, grown in
his home district, and named for

tains many times the nourishment
of a like amount of beef, and is
j cheeper and easier to handle, be
sides requiring no cooking .ino
only a good digestion and appetite
for sauce.
