Johnson either on the procedure or the records in the Nursery. The more technical laboratory data, in particular those gathered by physician and psychologist, accumulate slowly. They cover a range from the general clinical picture of the children gained in an hour's examination, to X-rays of chests and cardiagram measurements, and to schematograph records of posture; from a study of blood sugar under fatigue, to the records of the Stanford revision and performance tests. Already they give growth records of some individual children over a succession of five years; already the numbers of some age groups amount to 65 and 70. Slowly they are filling gaps in our knowledge; slowly they are building a conception of growth. To get this continuous sequence of records and measurements on growth is our second answer to the question of why we wish such young children.
It is obvious that the problems open to our experiment with babies are extremely big and our experience and our results are extremely small. In fact, we do not feel like talking about results at all. This first report of our Nursery School represents not our final thinking but our thinking up to date. We believe that experimenters should share their thinking as they work, - their aims, their programs, their methods of attack, their current findings, and even their hopes for the future. At the present moment many are groping their way towards a new conception in the treatment and study of babies. We are among them. This report aims only to show how we are making the effort to study the educational factors in the environment of small children and to gather scientific data concerning their growth.
