THE PUBLIC FORUM AIDS TO STUDY A trained mind is one of the most priceless of possessions. In the edu- cative process, the acquisition of knowledge is of secondary impor- tance. If the proper mental habits are formed, successful work in school is assured. The following sugges- tions will prove helpful: 1. Keep yourself in good physical trim. 2. A quiet, well-ventilated room, temperature about 68 degrees, good light coming from the left, a study table and straight-back chair. 3. Use foresight in providing your- self with pencils, pens, ruler, diction- ary, notebooks, writing paper, and all other materials that will be useful in preparation of your lesson assign- ments. 1. Be very sure you understand the lesson assignment. It is a good plan to mark the assignment in your text. 2. Take very careful notes on the suggestions made by the teacher for preparing the lesson. 3. If in doubt as to assignment or the directions relating to the prepara- tion of the lesson, do not hesitate to consult your teacher. 1. Form the habit of studying at regular periods during the day. 2. When the time comes for study settle down to the task before you with confidence in yourself and de- termination to do the best piece of work in the preparation of that lesson that you ar capable of. If you become drowsy or fatigued, bathe the face in cold water, get some fresh air and WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1922 Attractive Gifts that are not Costly DO YOUR CHRISTMAS SHOPPING EARLY MISS HERBST GIFTS 584 Lincoln Ave., Winnetka "THE LITTLE SHOP UPSTAIRS" Madeira handkerchiefs, 3 for $1 and 50c to $1.50 each.

Office Hours 10 A. M. to 4. P. M. Tel. Superior 4234 take a little exercise. 3. Prepare your work independent- ly of others. Learn to use your own judgment. This is an indispens- able factor to success in any under- taking. 4. Arrange your work so that you can get the largest returns for the effort expended. Subjects requiring undivided attention, such as history, should be written first. Lessons which require more or less written work should come last. Do not hesitate to mark up your book. Make notations in the margins as occasion suggests and underscore important passages. 5. Learn to concentrate on the task at hand. 6. Consult the dictionary and en- cyclopedia freely. 7. Read rapidly through the as- signment: Then go over it as many times as seems necessary to master the details. (a.) If you are preparing a for- eign language assignment, read through it once to see how much you can do without the aid of a grammar or dictionary. 2 (b.)e If it is a problem in mathe- rites, be-suge thai vou mndersiand je before attempting its salution, ? Fi " C.J n commiting) Yefiemor any matenal, "ein CHG whos rather than by sections. (d.) In memorizing rules, etc., it will be of material aid to read and repeat them aloud until mastered. 8. The habit of analyzing chapters and paragraphs is invaluable. The important points should be under- scored or jotted down in the form of notes. It is good training and very helpful to the student to make a topical outline of material read. 9. In using supplementary ma- terial, free use should be made of the table of contents, appendex, index, etc. This will save time. 10. Make mental cross connec- tions; trace cause and effect; compare and contrast. 11. Discuss your work with your classmates and other persons who might be interested. 12. Review each lesson, recalling the important points, arranging the details in proper order, and at fre- quent intervals the material covered during each week. As the semester progresses, time will not admit of weekly reviews but the monthiy re- view should be substituted. 13. Make as many practical ap- plications as possible of the informa- tion you have acquired. In other words, make it a part of your own experience and intellectual equip- ment. 14. Aim constantly to increase your efficiency in the mastery of each as- signment. Try to do your work in less time or do it better in the same time. ESTON V. TUBBS.
