These past weeks we have out-

lined the outstanding characteris- tics of gifted children and me I Ithods most effective in revealing " these characteristics. Let us now ‘ consider briefly the kinds of school programs that have been planned for the gifted ones. ‘ Present School set-ups are in- , adequate. For thirty years or umore leading educators have real- lized that the helter-skelter mix- lllng in one class-room of the bright, the dull‘ and the average the same course of study , for all could only result in tra- gic waste of the ability of the Li gifted and in failure to make the :j'most of the, below average. I. School systems were and still are ‘generally speaking geared to the , relquirements of the average pu- ‘ pi.

Gradually the plight of the be— .lowaverage was recognized in the organization of separate clas- ses (and schools) for the “re- tarded.” Here and there, too, ef- forts were made to meet the . needs of the superior. And now ,in our precarious times we are , beginning to fully appreciate the 5 value of our gifted ones and are , seriously studying and trying the ‘ various methods of conserving ‘, and developing their talents.

v ACCELERATION

Thﬁee types of school programs have been used with gifted chil- dren. ( 1) “Acceleration” is a near cousin to the practice of allowing the bright child to “skip” a grade now and then. But there is an important difference ’ between skipping and acceleration. In the case of the tormer, the child, par- ticularly in the lower grades of- ten lost basic skills in arithmetic or reading; in the upper grades sections of knowledge in history, , geography, etc., could be left out. The “acceleration” program how- : ever, permits the speedup of the a bright child’s progress through ' school without slumping or omitt- ‘lng any portion of the course of I study. The child may do two ‘ terms‘ work in one, or three

Intelligence and sensitivity are marked characteristics of Miss

Although'a young woman Miss Maynard has been, a global tra- Veller. On this trip she has W ped at Nairobi, Khartoum, Rome and Paris—in the latter place for a week.

In order to overcome the handi- cap for the gifted child of asso- ciation with older children the "‘enrfchmeuft” program has been practiced im,some school systems. Under this plan the bright child stays in the class room with the other pupils but the teacher pro- vides him with opportunities for'

‘-varied experiences in connection

with the regular course of study. He is the one chosen to consult reference books and bring back to the class more extensive in- formation in history, geography, etc, then is hound in the text- book. He reports on trips to lab- oratories, museums, etc, and he produces the class play etc

ELIEN’S DIARY

James Has Quick Reply We All Have A Chuckle

On this Island farm the season of weeding is here. It dawned this morning. Not in any hap- hazard way, but in an orderly

procession of the farm-work to have it done with an over be- fore the haying is come. Mean- while we can look out to the lov- eliness of the lush unshorn and unspoiled’fields. When last drills have been weeded and hoes ut away, then for us, summer will have reached its zenith. Then we shall hear as always with no un- certain regret the sound of the mowers in the fields.

So today brought the weeding, the first of the tidying of this and that patch of mangels and turnips of the farms.

"Let's see how many men we have,” James and Mack counted heads at breakfast-time. “To be- gin with, there’s. . ." '

“You and me,” Mask nodded, "and Gage and. .”

So in all six worthy hoe—men took themselves early to the field.

“Now remember this," James cautioned-the two youngest, “It doesn‘t matter how fast you can hoe, but how well; Of course,” he added, “Every drill done, counts." ’ -

We saw a scuff-ler resting in the busy little truck, and a horse led after itup't e rise of farm- lane in the fres shining new of the moring. With these James would blaze the trail for the weed- lng. '

The little lads were not bound by hours to the chore. There was tlme out for’pleasant relaxation after their set stint was done and before they undertook the

,next. Time toga down to the stream, to strip off shoes and dip young feet in the flow so cooling; time to come. to the workshop in the yard to further some piece of construction under way; time too to stalk the pair of starlings housekeeping in the garage, suspected of being mean brigands of late.

And “Oh dear what will be .the end of this?” cried harassed Mama Starling. I .

“We don’t want to kill them—- just to give them a fright", Mack said. ‘

But if they persist in bothering the goldfinches and robins we’ll have to put an end to them.”

Now gardens yield first har- vests to the tables. . .and new ﬂowers appear in the border: Col- umbines of last autumn’s plant: lug, large blooms in beautiful comginations of shades. The weigela, one of the most attract tive of the flowering shrubs, though'set out. only last Spring is now covered prettily with its varigated pink bloom.

“I wonder how many miles I walked following that scuffler to- day”. James says now into’ his fourth “’square”' of the long sum- mer day.

“0h a few miles less than a housewife” we chuckle.

“Which housewife?” he smiles, pouring himself another glass of milk.

And the July day smiles at us and turns footsteps down toward

.the dim dewy. meadow to go pre-

sently far beyond our recall. A happy day this... .busy and good.

When the cheops pyramid was built in the Fifth Century B.C., it is recorded that during the 20- year project, the workers con- sumed “onions. radishes and gar- lic costing 1600 talents” (2 mil- lion dollars)! , POTENT WEAPON

Onions were used as a potent weapon in our Civil War between the States. So strong was General Grant’s belief in onions as a spe- cific against summertime ills in a hot climate, that he wired the War Department in 1864: “I will not move my army without on— ions."

The next day three trainloads of onions were started to the front. . Monday dinner: Bean-Cabbage soup, onion-cheese pie, buttered carrots, tossed green salad, or- ange—prune compote: coffee, tea, or milk.

.QniOn And Cheese‘,.Pie

'A GOOd Luncheon Dish

By IDA BAILEY ALLEN

“In France, an onion and cheese pie is a popular luncheon dish, Madame,” said the Chef. “As you know, the French enjoy only a small breakfast of crusty rolls, butter and cafe u lait, so they require a substantial noon meal.

ASPARAGUS 0R BEANS “Sometimes, instead of using onions in making the pie, they use asparagus or even cooked green beans. The basis is always an egg custard, so I imagine a corn cus- tard pie would also be good." “It is good, Chef," I agreed. "Also, I often make mushroom custard pie which I bake in tiny muffin pans to serve warm as an hors d’oeuvre. ‘But right now it’s the season for Bermuda-type on- ions, so let‘s bake an onioncheese pie.” - All measurements are level. ‘ Onion—Cheese 'Pie: Prepare an unbaked pie shell of American

pie pastry.

, Next, melt 3 tbsp. butter or margarine in a saucepan. Add 3 thin-sliced, peeled large Bermuda onions. Saute until limp, stirring often. l .

Lightly beat together 3 eggs, 1 tsp. salt, 1/3 tsp. ground black pepper and 1% tsp. celery salt.

Add 1 tbsp. chopped parsley, 2—3 c. shredded Cheddar cheese, 11/: c. heate milk and the cooked onions.

Turn into the unbaked 9 in. pie shell.

Bake 10.min. in a hot oven, 425 degrees F. Reduce the heat to 325 degrees F. and bake 30 to 40 min, or until firm in the center. Garnish With onion rings and 'fresh parsley. Serve hot as is 01: with mushroom sauce.

The onion has a most distin- guished history, dating way back to Biblical days. lt‘is related that the Isrealites c o m p 1 a i 11 ed to Moses, as they were being led out
