MODEL SCHOOL PRAISED _ Dr, Castro Says Develops Critical Faculty : 5 aubidlins In a five-minute talk in Chapel Friday morning, Dr. Castro of the model school spoke of the ability to concentrate, the ambition and power of self criticism which have been observed in the children. “The personnel”, she said, “is made up of children as far as possible of some- what equal mental development who show possibilities of good progress—but not of geniuses. The chief test given tries to determine what the child can do with a new idea”. “Though there are no marks there has been no lack of ambition; instead of the teachers’ criterion they have their own standards of self-criticism. The most noticeable thing is perhaps their power of self-expression, their large vocabu- laries”’. CAMPUS NOTES Monsieur Beck spoke on the writings of Rabelais Thursday morning in Chapel. “Pantagruel”, he said, “embodied Rabe- lais’ philosophy in the motto, ‘To preserve an everlasting cheerfulness.’ Rabelais was a satirist, but a constructive one’”’.
