SHULL REVIEWS ADVANCES
MADE IN STUDY OF HEREDITY
(Continued from Page One)
ten years has been of an unusually
complex nature, and the discoveries
which have been made have so far ad-
vanced the science that it can be said
that heredity since 1910 is an almost
entirely new science, and the increase
in the number of known factors and
phenomena of heredity is tb be mar-
velled at. In no other branch of sci-
ence has there been such an advance
in learning.
COLUMBIA OFFERS COURSE

en, and his father is Earl L. Hemmen-
way, .'21 and ex-'18.; His -mother, be-

subjects. This is the problem which
confronts elementary school educators'
today. .
" At first, an attempt to solve this
problem was made by the introduc-
tion of so-called departmental work,
where the pupils went from the home-
room to various other rooms where
specaal subjects were taught. This plan1
was successful until the buildings
could no longer accommodate the i4-
creasing numbers of pupils. As manyl
of the rooms were left vacant at var-
ious times when the pupils were in the1
rooms where specialized work was1
done, a remedy was needed for *this
waste of room. space."
Worked Out "Solution
Mr. Spain then explained how this
remedy was found in the "Platoon
System," which is at present being
operated in several of the schools in
Detroit. As now arranged, the pupils
are divided into two groups. The first
group rem~ns in the "home-room" fora
the first half of the morning, where
their regular teacherhinstructs themi
in the "three R's". The second grou. '
at the same time, is in the variouss
special rooms,twhere, the special sub-"
jects are taught. The groups then I
change places, and thus the second I
half of the morning is spent. The aft-
ernoon is a repetition of the morning.
In addition to the work in the hpme-k
rooms and the special rooms, there is
the auditorium, in which all the stu-
dents gather once a day, for music,
talks which will be of benefit in the
socializing of the foreigners, and forj
celebration of special events. There is
also a co-operative arrangement with
the city library, so that all its advant-

A Uompromise
In summarizing the results o
system since its installment
years ago, Mr. Spain characteri
as a compromise between th
school and the new, giving g
variety to the curriculum, and
efficiency in the administration
He stated that the percentage o
ures has been less, the capacity
buildings has been increased by
third, and, instead of neglectin
"three R's," as some have maint
teachers have been able to inc
them much more efficiently. The r
themselves are almost unanimou
favor of it, the teachers express
selves as preferring it to the
method, and the principals are ei
iastic.

entarily the enmotional intensity that
prevailed throughout the play.
The rest of the characters were, per-
haps, .less skillfully handled, the stu-
dents showing their lack of previous,
dramatic experience. The part of Mary,
the young niece of the vicar, was well
done, however, by Lotta M. Martin,
whose role as the trustful and unso-
phisticated young girl was most dif-
ficult.
The production as a whole was a
thoroughly worth while attempt to
present real dramatic literature-de-
spite' the limitations that must attend'
any college productions. Tle 'cast
was well selected and the fact that the+
action takes place in a single room
enabled the committees 'to work out
the stage effects carefully and with
great success. The audience received
the efforts of the actors with applause,1
marking their appreciation for the dif-
ficult training and unstinted endeav-
ors of Professor Hollister and his class
