Polzin, 1010 Twelfth street, returned early last week fro~ Winona, Minn., where he attended the funeral of his father, Frank H. Polzin, who died in Seattle, Wash., after an illness of eleven weeks. Mr. Polzin was a retired building contractor and prior to his removal to Seattle in 1926 had lived in Winona for sixty-three years. Interm.ent was in Woodlawn cemetery. Miss Eleanor Grisamore, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Thomas L. Grisamore, 411 Lake avenue, returned recently from a three months' sojourn in Tucson, Ariz. "The Young Child," . Research V otumes, at Local Library To say that Ponald was· an unruly child is to put the matter mildly. During his first days in an Iowa City preschool group, he almost caused a panic. He banged the building blocks around, struck at the other children if they had something he wanted, ran away from any teacher who started to make a request of him, and then laughed or shouted at her in defiance. Donald had an awakening. At home he- had had few play things or in terests to challenge and steady his efforts,- and no companions of his own age. At the pre -school he discovered that it was as much fun to use his energies in pounding a nail as in pounding another child or the piano; in · fact pounding the nail had the added advantage of being a step in "making something." He found that · climbing the ladders and pulling others in the express wagon were more in teresting activities than running from the teachers, especially after. realizing that they turned their backs on him every time he ran away. Dr. Bird T. Baldwin, for ten years director of the Iowa Child Welfare Research station where young children are studied and helped by means of the pre-schools, gave many a child like Donald his first lesson in· getting along with a new and apparently contrary world, and many a teacher and parent a conception of the mysterious workings of a child's body and mind. Just before his untimely death, Dr. Baldwin prepared a reading course on "The Young Child," for parents and teachers, which has recently been published by the American Library association. In it he deals with the everyday pr9blems confronting most parents of young children, such as physical and mental needs, play, habit, emotions, etc.; and he suggests for furt'her reading a few practical books which will help to prepare the child for an active, useful and happy life. "The Young Child" is one of the "Reading with a Purpose" series, which now consist of 39 reading courses on a variety of subjects. These and the books recQ.mmended in each · will be found at the \Vilmette librarv, according to Miss Anne L. Whitmack, librarian.
