6 WASHBURNE HITS OLD 'LOCK-STEP METHODS (Continued from Page 1) self-corrective materials--games, etc.-- enable the children to teach themselves and 'eliminate much of the. recitation work: ~Thorough diagnostic tests show the teacher where each child stands and just where he needs help, and the time saved from recitation can be used for giving this individual help. The teach- er spends her time teaching, rather than marking, and there is time for group and creative activities which give an opportunity for the development of character, initiative and self-reliance. . Mr. Washburne's lecture is one of a series by well-known educators to be given during the. summer session at the National Kindergarten and Elemen- tary college. The following is a list of the remaining lectures, and a cordial invitation is extended to those inter- ested in this presentation of outstand- ing features of modern education. _ Tuesday, July 7--Dean Akeley, Uni- versity of South Dakota, "Modern Youth."

WENTE | Sheet Metal Contractor Phone Winn. 225 874 Center St., Hubbard Woods Phone Wilmette 320 1152 Central Avenue Mr. Krauss says: "Several of our patrons have informed us that certain Wilmette tailors are misrepresenting themselves as our agents--in other words stating that we do their cleaning. We most emphatically wish to state that we do not do any cleaning for Wilmette tailors and have declined all offers from them. The quality of our cleaning is too costly to be jobbed out through tailor intermediaries, but is rendered direct to the consuming public (the householder) at no higher cost than that charged by tailors who send their work to be done. We shall appreciate being advised of any further misrepresentation and unless it ceases we warn the offending tailors we will prosecute."
