The boy was • an idiot. At .least, the mother believed he was. Mr. ,Sidman had hint under 'his wing for 36 days, for his first school year,. and results seemed nil. In 1929, he, visited Toronto with Mr. Sloman. at Exhibition time, and was received with ,'three other backward boys; in. some of the finest homes in Toron- to's Hill district. Their boots were hob -nailed, and they scratched the hardwood floors, but they were "learnin." One lady- singled out the erstwhile idiot as "the one with the charming natural polish." 'In 1933, alto- a total of, 209 days in a school room, as his life record (the equivalent of ono ordinary •school year) the "idiot" was looking tip roots . of English wends in a Latin dictionary for pleasure.

It would be greater Mr. Sloman reports to the Education Department at Queen's Paris, if the erstwhile idiot ,did not buy Ms own Sunday suit, renew his subscription to a daily paper, subscribe to "Pap- ular Mechanics," and contribute fifty cents to a Toronto fresh -air fund for the underprivileged. "This is an extremely satisfactory case to consider," says Mr, Sloman. ;The boy has 65 others enrolled with hint on the school register and any test given them seems to show that they are going to snake themselves masters of their environment."
