A tray with a dozen things on It Is given to tho child for a few minutes, when It Is taken away from him and ho is ro-quired ro-quired to repeat from memory the namo of everything that was on tho tray. Gradually tho numbers of things aro Increased and tho time ho is al lowed to look at them decreased, until un-til noticing becomes a habit, and a slnglo, cursory glance catches up main dea and details in an almost magical way. Ono mother, who heard of the method, was so struck by Its simplicity sim-plicity and oy tho valuo of quick oh-jcrvlng oh-jcrvlng that sho tried tho experiments experi-ments with her own children not with trays and objects, but In their walks. Sho found that tho children develop splendid memories as woll. Boston Traveler. o |
