Five hundred thousand school
children of Chicago are rejoicing
over the announcement by Super
intendent Wm. H. Johnson, that
all homework would be eliminated
for students. The change will be
gin in February. Class work will
be arranged so as to allow study
periods in school.
“Young people,” the superin
tendent said, “ought to have a cer
tain amount of experience before
beginning to work about
things as long division and
fractions. Studies have shown that
fourth-grade pupils are not mature
enough to handle long division with
ease.
“They should find a need for
such things before learning them.”
Such arithmetic as the first two
grades get, he said, would be in
practical problems, operating play
stores and other educational games
Homework is “more a matter of
unfinished business” than part of
a student’s normal day, he said,
and more could be accomplished
during study periods with the
teacher “acting as sort of a fore
man.”
Dr. and Mrs. S. C. Plumer have
moved from the Dr. Bishop house
on Godshaw Hill to Circle Inn
they will spend a month.

“Small Town

With Janet Gaynor avid Robert
Taylor—also Binnie Barnes, Lewis
Stone, Andy Divine, James Stewart
A small town girl goes to a big
town in a very big way, and the
complications that result will make
you sit up and take notice. More
than a half million movie goers
wrote and ask that these two stars
be paired in a picture, and now
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer has cast
them together in one of the most
widely read stories of the year.
(Jut to find love studded with dia
monds, Janet Gaynor finds mar
riage with a perfect stranger. A
perfect cast ... in a perfect
vehicle. Also Metrotone News and
Comedy.
