What Would You Do With This Pupil ?
GIVE YOUR EXPERIENCE
From time to time most teachers
have students who write a hand sim-
ilar to the above and they are at loss
to know whether to change the stu-
dent's style of writing- completely or
to improve the style already written,
or if anything can be done. Doubtless
every teacher has had similar
cases and we would like to get a
statement from some of our readers
what they do with writing like the
above. Please address your comments
to the Editor of the Educator,
Columbus, Ohio. Your suggestions
may help some other teacher.

TO IMPROVE NERVES
E. D. Griffiths, the penman, and
engrosser and sign painter of Dayton,
Ohio, writes: "A few years ago I
had a nervous break down, lasting
over three years, during which time,
and as a result of which I became
so "shaky" I could not write with
any certainty of conti'ol at all, and
the effect on my sign work was terrible.
However, I have kept writing
and writing some more, endeavoring
the while to control my nerves, and
I have found I have recovered my
nerve control—in fact, my nerves are
steadier than they have ever been
and I am nearly 65 years of age."
