Open evenings HALF-FARE RATE FOR PUPILS URGED Focht and Ball, Pleads for Legislation. A plea for establishment by law of half-fares on the street cars for school children in the District of; Columbia was made today to Senator Ball of Delaware and Representative Focht, chairmen, respectively, of the Senate and House District mittees, in a letter written by J. C. ‘Wright. Mr. Wright points out that bills providing for half-fare for the school children have been introduced in both houses of Congress, and urg action on them. He says, in part: Stresses Need for Cut. “It is rightly conceded that ‘public education is the basis of intelligent citizenship’ and that ‘ignorance is the most costly crop any community may produce.’ Therefore every op- portunity should be amply afforded every boy and girl to enjoy fully all public school advantages without undue hindrance or embarrassment, and the forthcoming American Edu- cation week can have no m more essential to the welfare of the school children at the nation's capital than the early enactment of the bill now pending in the House and Senate providing one-half fare for school children on the street railways within the District of Columbia. “The present passage by the Senate of the Capper bill providing compul- sory attendance at school for all chil- dren in the District of Columbia be- tween the ages of seven and sixteen years, authotizing a school census | betw of all children n two and eighteen yvears of age, and creating | a departn better r makes more ment of a ent of work permits for the lation of child lab rzent the carly enact- w providing one-half fare for children riding to and from school on the street railways operat- ing within the District of Columbia. Cost Proves Burden. “The illu. cost of living; the pi employment almost every prevailing high rents that b ing parents are fo only s } ingenuity mass of people buy, and the present exorbit of car fare, that operates too severely against many school boys and gi from humble homes—all these co spire in -making it impossible f many struggling parents to provi the bare necessities of physical health, keep their children in regular attend- ance at school and rear them to no mal human stature worthy of Ameri- can gitizenship. Many Forced to Walk. “In a survey of street rai tofore submitted to the committees on the District of Columbia it may be noted that school children ride for { fare on street ca i children are required to pay a car fare of 8 cents or six tokens for 40 cents, and, because their small means can- | not withstand the constant drain of 40 cents to purchase tokens, many are forced to pay the single eight-cent fare or 20 per cent more for six rides. “Many children still less fortunate are compelled to walk to and from school, irrespective of health, weath- er and distance, because the meager family budget will not permit them to ride.” SCHOOL PUPILS TO HELP SELL CHRISTMAS SEALS Supt. Ballou Urges Teachers to Encourage Children in Health Crusade. . Public school officers and_teachers | are called upon by Supt. Frank W. Ballou to encourage pupils to sell the Christmas seals of thg Washington Tuberculosis Assoclation. Sales of the seals by the school children was authorized by the board of education at_its meeting November 1.

They are expected to sell them to their friends in their re- spective homes. well to emphasize the idea through! the sale of these seals healthy children are assisting in the support of various undertakings as- sociated with our schools for making J.
