The children respond to various materials placed within their reach, and use them to carry out problems of their own. The chil- dren, as far as possible, purpose, plan, carry out, and judge the result of their problems. The teacher's part is to supply the en- vironment Which will call out the child responses to control the situation without dominating itg also, to raise the standard of the work with any help that may be required.

It is open to all the pupils in P. S. l73,' Man- hattan. The captains are two of the cleanest children in each class, one being a girl, the other, a boy. The aim of this club is to keep our city streets clean. Not only on the streets but everywhere we must try to clean up. To keep paper and garbage in the rubbish cans, is one rule we all wish to teach, so that soon our neighborhood will be the cleanest in Greater New York.
