HALF-SIZERS! '| Key to Good Citzenship," written # |L. Weston, seems to « |stron| to carry them out. They are the Iya With whom one likes to associate. They are in a state of Bis staces & theory which the states a wi teachers in several Detroit junior and senjor high schools set out to |kind test, over a period of four years, under the sponsorship of the De- troit Public Schools and Wayne University. THEORY SUPPORTED The published report of study, "Emotional Ajustment: this A by Elmer F. Pflieger and Grace give pretty support to this theory. Perhaps the most significant contribution of this undertaking was to focus the attention of practically ell the teaching staff n each school on how each stu- dent feels in relation to the per- sons with whom he mingles; on his feelings toward being under- stood, loved ad belonging, to- ward success and self-regard, and his hopes and fears and worries. STUDY'S METHODS This report impresses one with the many methods needed to de- termine the emotions which seem to hamper the child at school in his learning and getting along with other persons there. Also im- pressive are the concerted efforts of the entire teaching staff in seeking ways to help the child feel more comfortable and worthy. One suspects that some of the teachers spent considerable time conferring with the parents of The Role of Home and Parents In a Child's School Successes children who were most helped. But the authors of the book re- ported practically none of this. LACK OF HOME REFERENCES This report disappointed me in that there is so little reference to the home. Practically nothing is said about the parents' part until page 118. A few paragraphs there note that when the study began, one school out of the eight had a Parent - Teacher Association and that six schools had effected some of parent organization. Through this organization, the re- port states, '"'the school learns to ow the community better, and the community learns to know the school. The school has an opportun- ity to interpret its program to the parents; it has a chance to hel parents to understand their chii- dren better." § This is splendid, yet there's hardly an admission in the entire volume that the school might learn something about children from their parents. Nor is there any indication that parents served on committees in drawing up the school program, or even sat in the classrooms to observe. It seems too bad there was no reported effort at giving parents a feeling of be- longing, nor any assumption that the home has anythig to do with the school child's emotions. Doesn't the child bring his home experience along with him to school? Because of the prestige of the sponsors of this experiment, its suggested program of dealing with children at school practically as if they had no parents, will probably be imitated widely. Let's ho for more schools whose pupils have parents, and {whose teachers know they have! Let's quit ing that the school 'has all the wisdom.

To carry our analogy further, when the car stands in the garage, no fuel is used. But there is never a time when the living body turns its engine off completely.
