n THE "SIX-AND-SIX" PLAN tt
tt
tt tt tt tt tt tt it :::::::: tt
Emphatic approval of the "s-und-six"'
plan of sc'uool organization
urged ily the Inland Empire Teach-
ers' association at their Spokane
meeting was expressed by Dr. P. P.
Claxton 1'nitti States commissioner
of education. "I know of no valid
reason for the present plan of eight
and four years of school" declared
Dr. Claxton. "There should be six
years of elementary school and six
years of high school the high school
period being divided into two sec-
tions of three years each.
"There are many reasons for the
change. Children 12 and 13 years
old are at the beginning of the
transition period between childhood
and youth they shoukl not be kept
doing elementary work. At present
the pupils in most school systems
mark time to a largs extent through
the 7th and Kth grades. This Is es-
pecially! true where the methods
of the elementary schools are car-
ried through these and the children
are taught by women grade teachers.
With a sixth-year elementary school
It would be easily possible to pro-
mote the tcacrers with the children
from grade to grade thus gaining the
large value that comes front teach-
ers and children remaining together
until the teacher knows the needs
of the children their strength ami
their weakness and can build in-
telligently on all the work of pre-
vious years.
: "Furthermore to begin the high
school with the seventh grade will
make much easier the departmental
work which should bsgin at least
this low down. It will also make
it much easier to begin work In
such high school subjects as for-
eign languages constructive geom-
etry and real literature at this
qtoint where they should bs begun.
The study of languages especially
of modern languages should he b-
gun in a practical way before chil-
dren have passed the time when they
can learn 'in this way. This plan will
also make it possible to introduce
manual training domestic science
and varous forms of vocational work
two years earlier than they are now
begun.
"Our secondary school work if
now at a great disadvantage a3 com-
pared with the work done in the
Gynaslen and R.ab'chulen in Ger-
many the Lycees of France and the
so-called public schools of England
Hy giving six years to the high
school boys and girls who go to
college may easily have on admis-
sion to college a much larger
amount of mathematics languages
and other subjects than they now
have I feel quite sure that by an
arrangement of this kind and a little
more care in tho preparation and
selection of teachers you may gain
for most children two years in the
twelve.
"The division of the high school
Into two sections of thre year?
each will make easu r a second dif-
ferentiation of work at the end ot
the first three high school years.
"At present only about one-fourth
of the children (titer the high school.
The compulsory schcol age in most
stales corresponds quite closely with
the elementary school period. Par-
dits and children are thereby con-
firmed in the idea that the ele-
mentary education is all that is
needed llesides the break between
the elementary school and the high
school at this time suggests leaving
school and makes it easier. If the
break came nt 12 or 13 the great
majority of children would be in
the high school doing the high
school work under high school con-
ditions ad probably a much larger
proportion of them would continue
in school under present conditions."
The Inland Empire Teachers' as-
sociation which adopted the resolu-
tion favoring the new plan enrolls
about 2.1)00 teachers from the states
of Washington Oregon Idaho and
Montana The resolution passed un-
animously. NOTICE.
Notice "is hereby given that Cob
Jlraziel will on the first day of June
1914 present to the governor of Okla-
homa his petition for parole and re-
lease from confinement under a judg-

GREAT PARADES
AT THE REUNION
Maids and Sponsors To Open
Series On Morning Of
the First Day
Sons of Veterans and Military Organl-
zations Second Day While the
Veterans Parade Last Day.
Jacksonville Fla. With the near
approach of May 6 interest In the
24th annual reunion of the United
Confederate' Veterans' Association and
Sons of Confederate Veterans centers
around the three parades one each
day of the reunion. It has been defi-
nitely decided that the first parade
will be that of the maids and sponsors
and it will be given on the afternoon
of May 6.
This parade will be confined to au-
tomobiles and carriages and all spon-
sors and maids of honor will be ad-
mitted to It. The Jacksonville Re-
union Association has decided that
If possible the. parade of maids and
sponsors will be the finest spectacle
of the kind ever Been in the southern
states. The route will be several miles
long and passes through the principal
residence and business sections of the
city.
The parade of the second day. May
7 will be of the Sons of Confederate
Veterans and local military organiza-
tions. It is the present plan for the
Sons to march on foot and the parade
will take in the business sections of
the city.
On the morning of May 8 the last
day of the reunion the annual parade
of the Confederate Veterans will be
held. Jacksonville labors under a dis-
advantage in staging this parade that
no other reunion city has ever en-
countered that of securing horses.
There are very few available horses
in Jacksonville and as a result it has
been decided to make the parade a
combination between horses automo-
biles and foot-marching. The local
association believes that it will be
possible for the commanders and their
staff officers . to be provided with
mounts but It Is going to be a diffi-
cult matter to secure a sufficient num-
ber even for that. However a united
effort Is being made to secure all the
mounts possible In Jacksonville and
nearby towns in Florida and South
Georgia.
Arrangements for these parades are
being worked out rapidly by special
committees. MaJ. S. C. Harrison Is
chairman of the committee that will
have charge of the Sons of Veterans
parade. Ho is being assisted by the
local camp of Sons of Veterans of
which Judge John L. Dodge Is com-
mander. Adjt.-Cen. N. C. Forrest of
the National Sons of Veterans Is here
giving much of his attention to these
arrangements.
Dr. W. M. Stlnson is chairman of
the committee on entertainment of
maids and sponsors and has been
working on plans for some time with
a corps of assistants. He will organ-
ize the entire program of the maids
and sponsors entertainment features
and promises to give the visiting la
dies the best possible reception In
Jacksonville.
Gen. John L. Inglis commander ot
tho Florida division V. C. V. Is un
der the rules of the United Confeder-
ate Veterans' Associations chief mar
shal of the veterans parade with Gen.
W. II. Sebring chief aide. Gen. Inglis
wants a parade in which the older vet-
erans will occupy automobiles and car-
riages with commanders and as many
of their staffs as possible on horse-
back. The veterans' parade Is being
worked out along these lines.
The social functions of the reunion
will be about the same as have pre-
vailed at other reunion cities. Three
balls will be given during the week
one for maids and sponsors one for
the Sons of Veteran? and the other
for the veterans themselves. Gen.
Bennett H. Young appointed as his
chief sponsor Miss Corrinne Hampton
of Columbia S. C. His maids of hon-
or are Misses Minnie Crock of Chat-
tanooga; Elolse Washburn of Mont-
gomery Ala. and Miss Gladys Ker-
nan ot New Orleans. These ladles
represent the south in the social func-
tions of the reunion.
A dancing pavilion will be erected
close to the business sections of the
city and it will be large enough to
accommodate tho reunion balls. In
addition to the balls there will be a
number of events on the program for
the entertainment ot official ladles.
Chief among these Is a trip to the Bea-
shore and an excursion or two on the
St. Johns river. Some two hundred
young men have volunteered their
services as escorts for the visiting la-
dies and everything points to a most
enjoyable week for all who may par-
vlCipaic in luc swim tUUVLlUlil ftUU
