Walker and Islis Mary Currie, two of Mr. Morton's Esperanto students, of an interesting article • which appeared in the last number of "ESPER- ANTO', published in I3ern, Switzerland. During the summer schools for leachers in the Uinyersity of St. Andrew's, Scot- land, addresses on Esperanto by Mr, W, M. Page, editor of The Esperanto Month. ly, an d by Mr. D. J. Young, M. A. head- master of Foulford school, Cowdenbeath, before the students, aroused much inter- est in the language, and as a reenit. many students- and the director began to learn it. paw:1p of Education through the land are supporting official evening classes In the elementary schools for children, there is satisfactory progress. Esperanto is now taught in Green Lane Council School, Patricroft, for the fourth year, and headmaster, Mr Sanderson, has de- cided, on account of its great success from an educational paint of view. that all the children in the upper forms of the school,. 350, must learn Esperanto. There are now two classes, in Holycroft Boys'. Council School, Keighley and four classes in Eastwood Girls, School, Keigh- ley. Donaldson's Hospital Edinburgh and Gallowflat Scheol, Rutherglen, have finished a second year in Esperanto with satisfactory results. During their visit to Scotland, Mesdames Cense and Tiard and Mlle • Girard from Paris visited the class in Donaldson's Hospital, who sang and re- cited to them in Esperanto and played a comedy. The children greatly enjoyed the experience of conversing with foreign. ers.and listening to them . The headmistress of Northcote Girls' School, Armley, Leeds, writes:—'The Esperanto lesson continues to be one of the most popular on our time -table, and has, I am firmly convinced, the highest educational value. But the most important class at the present time, is the experimental one at Gids' County School, Bishop Auckland, to which the Government Board of Edu- cation gives a grant. The experiment has not,yet been completed, but the direktrix, Dr, Mrs. Fisher, reports that up to the present theprogress of the learners is re- markable. She says that the Board of Education permitted Esperanto to be taught in that scnool, not on account of itself, but as a found- ation for the teaching of modern langu ages, The Board laid down some con- ditions, among which were (a) That the teachsr should know the language well and be able to write and speak it flu- ently and (b) That the same instructress teach in the following year, a modern language to those who had studied Es- peranto along with those who had not done so, in order to ascertain whether the Esperanto students had gained any ad- vantage. The thought of the Board was that Esperanto would give its students a clearer knowledge of graaurtar than could be given by English. The age of the children is 11-12. The Directors adver- tised for a teacher, but no candidate ap- plied, therefore they were compelled to make one from the teaching staff of the school. They selected Miss Pearson, the instructress in French, who commenced the study of Esperanto on Nov. 1, 1918 and at the end of December in the same year won the certificate of the Britis't Es- peranto Association, with honors. Miss Pearson began to teach the language ac- cording to the direct method, using the textbook "Tra la jaro." The children immediately became enthusiastic over the lessor and some so interested that they teach the language to members of their families and buy book's and dictionaries They will continue the study of Esperan- to until December, 1919 and in January, 1920, commence to learn French or Ger- man. It can then be ascertained how much help they have received from Esper- anto. The Royal Inspector and others who have visited the class have become strongly irnpressed by the enthusiasm of the pupils. Whether the success origin- ates from the fact that they are conscious cf competition with other girls who have not learned Esperanto, or from the beauti- ful sounds of the language and the ease with which they assimilate it, one does know but the fact is that they like the lesson as a• "play - study" and go into it with the same cheer- fulness and pleasure, which they show when about to play. Even the dull child- ren have made an excellent beginning. We await with hope the result of the ex- periment after a further year of exper- ience. Esperanto is taught in several other .schools, but not officially, W. M. Page, Edinburgh, Scot At a sitting of the Railway Board in the own Hall, Teeswater, on Tuesday permission was given to build a trunk line between Belmore and Wroxeter. Under the present system a call from Wroxeter to Belmore has to go round by Teeswater costing 20 cents, but when the new line is built a toll of only 5 cents will be charged, of which the Wroxeter ex- change gets 3 cents. 111111 euRrry OUARAIITICED 0.0t8S NET 1 , .•••••• til itto.
