M0NTESS0RI BOOK ON SHELVES
w
Widow of American Diplomat Writes
Entertainingly of Things) She
Has Seen and Ptmou Per
sonages She Has Met.
Last year McClure's Magazine pub
lished a series of articles by Josephine
Tozier on the Montessori method. By this
means a new educational system reached
the people first. Instead of making Its
initial appeal to a professional class. Dr.
Maria Montessori's book "The Montessori
Method," just translated from the Italian,
found Its public already awaiting It,
eager to read the author's own exposition
of her subject Consequently her book
had an unprecedented advanced sale.
While many of the ideas advocated by
Dr. Montessori are not new in themselves,
yet their union into an educational sys
tem is new and in no degree lessens the
author's great work.
Dr. Montessori is an Italian physician
the first woman ever granted the degree
of doctor of medicine by the University of
Rome. For more than two years she was
directress of the Scuola Ortofrenica the
mind-straightening school to which the
feeble-minded children were sent from all
parts of Rome. The results which she
attained here were considered miraculous,
children attending the school passing the
same examinations in the public schools
as normal children of the same age.
For seven years after leaving this work
she studied every branch of experimental
pedagogy and finally, in 190$, equtpped
with all this knowledge, was made di
rectress of some new Infant schools in a
crowded tenement district of Rome.
During the long years of preparation
Or. Montessori had been laying the foun
dations of her educational system.
At the mlnd-straightenlng school she
had become convinced that there was
something wrong with the education of
the normal child.
Looks for Reason.
In her own words, "While everyone was
admiring the progress of my Idiots, I
was meditating on the reasons that could
keep the happy and healthy common
school children on so low a level that
my unhappy pupils were able to stand
betide them."
As the result of her thinking he has
Incorporated Into her system ;t training
the normal child, many methods and
much apparatus which re e used orig
Inally only for deficients.
Especial attention is paid to the train
ing of the senses, particularly 10 the
sense of touch.
Remarkable results havo been attained,
especially in the rapid mastery of writ
ing, reading and numbers, and her pupils
have been taught in such a way as to
experience the Joy of a Ulswvery when
any new thing is learned.
While many may differ from Dr.
Montessori, her book cannot fall to sug
gest, and will stimulate not only teach
ers, but all who are Interested In the ad
vancement of humanity. Henry W.
Holmes of Harvard, who has written a
critical Introduction to this book, says
"We have no other example of an edu
cational system original at least in Its
systematic wholeness and In its practical
application-worked out and Inaugurated
by the feminine mind and hand." ((Call
for library number 371.3, M 76.)
Tells o fFamons Personages.
In "Intimacies of Court and Society," an
unconventional narrative of unofficial
days by the widow of an American dip
lomat, the author writes in a chatty in
formal way of things she has seen and
famous personages she baa met. Her
style lacks the distinction of Madam
Waddlngton'a, but it is vivacious, and her
book reads as easily as a novel. She him
written of society In Paris, the papal
court of the Vatican, Nicholas II of Rus
sia, his coronation, etc
Here is an extract taken at random:
"My husband was an authority upon a
certain phase of international law, then
occupying the attention of Germany and
the United States, and the kaiser sent
for him through the American minister
it was before the post was raised to the
rank of an embassy. But when he was
in the palace and Jut ascending the
stairs leading up to the audience room
he was suddenly confronted by the little
crown prince, riding madly down the bal
ustrade, and saluting as he rolled off at
the bottom to be caught by a palace
servant and carried back, howling and
struggling. My husband was kept wait
ing fifteen minutes in the ante-room,
while a very audible chastisement took
place behind closed doors. And when bis
majesty finally received him with face
flushed and eye flashing, ho seemed to
have entirely forgotten about the sub
ject of international law, for' ho spent
the entire hour in a dissertation on the
necessity of parental discipline to a man
who had no children of his own." ((Call
for library No. 811 in 8).
Boy Problem.
Dr. O. Stanley Hall, who has written
an Introduction to the "Boy Problem,"
says of Dr. For bush: "The author, who
is both a clergyman and a ooctor of phil
osophy, has been among boys and done
work with them that I consider hardly
less than epoch-making in significance."
The "Boy Problem" passed through six
editions and is still the best book on the
subject. '
His new book, "The Coming Genera
tion," is one of a series of books edited
by Shailer Mathews, which are written
by specialists in untechnlcal language and
which aim to present, as Mr. Mathews
says, our "social assets," Instead of our
"social liabilities."
"The Coming Generation" gives a very
readable account of what has been ac
complished for the betterment of chil
dren In America. It touches upon the
underlying national causes which must
be taken into account as affecting young
people, "the problem of living in a rich
and luxurious time, the problem of liv
ing successfully in cities, the problem
of moral education and the problem of
saving the home."
There is a list of books for those who
wish to study the subject and a program
for the betterment of boys and girls.

AND THE FLAG IS STILL THERE
Fort McHenry No Longer nn Army
Park.
The reveille which has echoed across
the river and through historic Fort Mc
Henry for the last 137 years was sounded
Saturday morning for the last time,
marking the abandonment of the old
fortification as a military post. The call
aroused the coast artillerymen who
formed its garrison, and they entrained
for Fort Strong, Massachusetts. Back of
the ramparts of the old fort the flag will
continue to wave as it did on September
13, 1814, when Francis Scott Key was In
spired to write the nation's anthem. The
fort will be closed to visitors for the
present, but will be reopened and con
tinued as a national memorial.
Several measures looking to selling the
property have been presented to con
gress, but none ever has been passed.
Historical societies are at work to' have
the government maintain it for the bene
fit of coming generations. In 179 the
government bought seven acres of ground
and erected a fort in the shape of a five
pointed star, built of brick and filled in
with dirt, which still stands. Armament,
heavy in those days, was placed around
the breastworks to defend the approach
to this city, and when the English fleel "
.-ailed up the Chesapeake bay tlie soldlen'-.
at the fort were Joined by a number ol
public spirited citiiens.
For several days the British fleet poured
a merciless fire into the fort, but the de
fenders replied with the same kind and
so well did they train their guns that the
Englishmen were forced to abandon th
conquest and sail away. Francis Scot!
Key, a prisoner on on of the British
ships, was unaware during the night
whether or not its garrison could with-
stand tho terrlflo rain of fire which wai '
poured Into it and it was not until th
'dawn's early light" broke over th
Patapscoe river that he knew that th
fort was safe. , - '
W hile the fort as a military post bad
been obsolete for years so fax as its use
as a defense was concerned, it has shel
tered many men ' who now are hieh in "
the service of the government aivl has
been the scene of many brilliant social
functions and weddings. Entwined In its
history are many romances which would
make interesting reading. Beginning on
Monday, civilians will guard the fnrt
raise and lower the flag every day, mak
ing it seem more like a city park than a
military post. Baltimore Sun.
