VISITS IN ANN ARBOR
Dr. Frank Pierrepont Graves, presi-
dent of the University of New York,
who left Ann Arbor yesterday after a
'short visit, believes that remarkable
progress has been made in the Am-
erican educational system in the lastl
few years.
"The United States bureau Hof ed-
ucation and the various state depart-1
ments of public instruction have had
their functions much enlarged and
their activities greatly increased.
There are also such advances as
the new procedure in school hygiene,
arising from the modern attitude to-
ward the prevention of disease, better
medical inspection, open air schools
and new tendencies in school architec-
ture. Lilewise we find progressive
legislation on compulsory attendance,
;more extensive training of teachers
and the development of educational

"In connection withi higher educa-
tion there are such new tendencies as
university extension, correspondence
courses, summer sessions, university
interest in the practical problems of
the people, the correlation of the first
two years of college with the second-
ary school, an increasing number of
fields of professional work, and, above
all, the professional training of teach-
ers through departments of education,
teachers' colleges, and schools -of ed-
ucation.
"With this is connected the scientific
study of education, both in graduate
courses and independent investiga-a
tion."
Dr. Graves has written many booksI
on educational subjects. Among themj
,are "A History of Education," "Great
Educators of Three Centuries,;' and
"Peter R.mus."
Dicken's Daughter
is Not Literary
(By Associated Press)
LONDON, Dec. 5.-Mrs. Kate #Peru-
gini, last surviving daughter of
Charles Dickens, who has just cele-
brated! her 86th birthday, takes pride
in the fact that 'she has never made
any attempt at literary achievements.
Mrs. Perugini remembers all the
great contemporaries of her father-
Thaekeray, George Eliot and other
early Victorians. She resembles her
father more than any other member
of the;family.
Will Record Time
On Slip With New
IStamp At Library.
Students waiting for books at the
corridor desk of the' Library will no
longer have the plea 'I have been
waiting half an hour for my book",
as a result of the installation of a
time-recording stamp at this desk.
This device is similar to those used
! in railway ticket-offices for marking
tickets with the hour and day scale.
The machine is used at the corridor
desk for marking each slip sent on
the telautograph with the exact time
of sending. This information on the
slip enables the man in charge of
the desk to kiow if anybody is wait-
ing too long for his book. The pres-
ent model is hand-winding, a tempo-
rary substitute for the one ordered,
which is electric, operating from the
master clock.
