The “Maennerchor” was represented by a lot of folks who sang through their noses, following a man who carried « half-dozen rag babies in a basket, to take off the admission of children in that order, There were nineteen sets, and the dan- cing lasted way on towards morning.

SOME GOOD POINTS MADE, ‘To the Editor of Tae Eventne Stan: Now in this time of wholesome agitation of the school management question, may not the subject of women on the school board be prop- erly discussed? Much can be safd in favor of female supervision, for naturally and legiti- mately the care of the schools is woman’s pro- vince. After graduating her little ones from the nursery, should not the mother be the cus- todian of the school-room? Who would be the more interested than she in the selection of Proper instructors, suitable studies and desir uble school sites, and in the arrangements of heating, lighting and ventilation? if her child suffers from errors in these details, who feels 1t ‘as the mother does? Some may raise the objec- tion of woman's inability to cope with these matters, but actual fact silences such a cry. Our city has numbers of women who have the time, the intelligence and the business ability to ably discuss and satisfactorily settle every matter brought before the ‘board of trustees. ~ ally in point of time, have many of them the advantage of men equally able, but whose offi- cial or professional duties prevent the consider- ation they feel unable to give for unpaid ser- vices. But forther than that a worker and observer in the schools sees a real necessity for woman’s resence in their direction and government. he head of man has done well for our public school system, but it needs the heart of woman to perfect it. Mothers would have less expend- ed upon ornament and finish of school build- ings, to give the children suitable play grounds and sizeable play-roomns ‘that the little ones might stretch their muscles in healthtul recrea- tion between the hours of study, without beini either turned in the dusty streets or crowde: into meanly-sized_play-rooms in wet weather, as is the case now in many of our buildings. A mother's interest would also demand a greater number of teachers and consequently fewer pu- pils in a school, so that a teacher could give each child some individual attention, and not be obliged, as at present, to regard her class as monstrous machine which she would be glad to divest of its mechanical habiliments and re- solve into « healthy, lively set of interested children, ‘There has been recently suggested the plan of storm signals, announcing “school closed” on days such as January 25th (the day of the terri- ble snow storm), when the children whose pa- rents permitted them to venture out spent thelr time in school drying their shoes and stockings, where a teacher was humane enough to allow consideration for their health to overrule any claims tor learning. With our many school bells the Janitors could readily give an under- stood signal for the children to remain home on days of unusual inclemency, relieving many an anxious mother of the Tear of sicknes among her children, where ambition for regu- lar attendance causes thei to go to school. Another very strong plea for women on the school board is that a majority of our teachers are women, and a woman can best appreciate a woman's work, and it needs no telling that teacher, like any other worker, will give her best effort where she has the greatest sympa- thy and is the most encouraged. Then, often there arise for the teacher's consideration mat- ters of too delicate a nature for a modest woman to ask the advice of 4 male supervising principal, superintendent or trustee, Young Veachers find those new in the calling feel this greatly, and both teachers and pupils some- times suffer for want of an experienced adviser, which might be obviated did she know there Was an intelligent woman whose counsel she had the privilege of calling to her aid. Tuererore, as One desiring to suggest only that which is most conducive to the good of our schools at large, and what is felt to be the long- needed benefit, 'we beg that in the construction four new school board giving to each school division three trustees, one of them at least Will be @ woman, and that the woman element will be recognized as an essential factor in the successful and perfect development of our pub- lic school system.
