New Regime Which Includes Mu
sic, Folk Dance* and Movie*.
Evanston. 111.—Music is just as Im
portant ns the multiplication tuble and

morning until ten at night. Classes'
will Inst until 3:31) in the afternoon,
but pupils will he permitted to go
home at any hour their parents de- J
sire.
"1 tint going to eliminate home
work.” said Superintendent Nichols.
“It is the bugbear of school children.
And there will lie no examinations;1
they merely worry the youngsters.
The students will tlo all their scholas
tic work right in the classrooms."
In addition, the schools will remain

“Examinations are an unhealthy,
antiquated tyranny,” added Snperin
leudetir Nichols. “Crowing children
should not he compelled to sit in class
rooms all day and then lug hooks
home for night lessons. You can’t
get an estimate of a child’s mental
equipment by Insisting that he cram

as many as he <nn remember on the
semester exam papers.
“I’m going to teach ftp-se youngsters
to think for themselves Dancing amt
tousle lessons will he mental tonics.
By the new classes prplls will gain
self-reliance, a love of school life,
and agile minds."

To the tourist who have ventured

the “shrimp dance” Ims ever been a
colorful mentor}.
United in salt wilier in great copper
vats, dried in the sunshine to rubbery
resiliency, the shrimps liave been swept
up Into huge circles In the past years.
Then, while guitar or banjo or accor
dion wailed and plunked a dancing
strain in a weird minor key, the husk.v
platform worker- hands on hips, havi
shuttled over the circular piles of
shrimp. I’.enenth their tread the brit
tle shells crackled into fragment-.
Following the dunce tin* pinkish
shrimp meat was shoveled .through
great screens, tin* brittle -hell frag
ments falling through, while the piles
of dried fish were packed In barrels.

has grown to greater porportlons

sen-on of 1 !>'_’<t. 20.710 jierson* were
