UNIVERSITY WILL AODD LABORATORY TO STUDY CHILDREN IN SCHOOLSi DEAN WHITNEY AND PROFESSOR WOOI)Y MAKE TRIP TO UNIVERSITIES WHITNEY PRAISES IOWA Make Plans To Add U1it For Study Of Pre-School Chl4 To Curriculum Of Educational School A year from next September, the University of Michigan will have a complete psychological laboratory for studying school pupils from the ages of two years up through the college grades, if the new elementary unit of the University High school is com- pleted by that time, according to Dean Allan S. Whitney of the School of Edu- cation who returned from a trip to severalhmid-western universitieston Thursday. He was accompanied by Prof. Clifford Woody of the Education- al school. Dean Whitney and Professor Woody made the trip to collect available data at the Universities of Northwestern, Chicago, and Iowa, concerning the pre- school child and the work in the study and training of them., Dean Whitney thought that the school for this type of child was best at Iowa University. Only in the past few years have educationalists been turning their attention to the pre- school child to teach him independ- ence and care of himself before the kindergarten age. Psychologists are now realizing the importance of this study and are now starting work in this little-known field. For this pur- pose, many of the best universities in this country and elsewhere are tak- ing up the study to follow up growth of intellect and other reactions in the small child, to manhood. The University of Iowa is a pioneer in the field, having had means for studying the pre-school child for sev- en years. The children from two to six years of age fall in this class. Each year, the State of Iowa makes an appropriation of $35,000 for this study by the University. There are three classes: the first for children from two to four who come and stay most of the day, eating their noon meal, sleeping in the afternoon, and learn- ing to takecare of themselves and some simple exercises. Group Division Made The second group comes in the morning and retur'ns home at noon. The third group is of children, four to five, who learn elementary things in preparation for kindergarten. .Each of these groups is housed in spearate cottages, and in addition there is a small library building and an office for the teachers and nurses Parental groups meet with the authorities in charge every so often and plan diets and proper care of their children so that the co-operation may be better. At Northwestern and Chicago, there are no separate cottages, but the whole plan is on one floor. The same general idea of care of the children and pa- rental co-operation is carried out, however.

The Electric Air Heater does not take the place of the furnace. It supplements it. An electric heater is simply a quick, convenient, and inexpensive means of heating a cold room when you want it warmed, and for as long or short a time as you may desire. Even in full furnace, season it will often be found desirable to have it at hand, especially in the bath- room mornings. alb y \' f ea If w r 1 r ,l , , '. °- er r C2'9 , l U c '. '^ ?5 ?r F.
