Park View School Open at Night | To Show Parents How It Works “And then ,the whining schoolboy with his satchel And_shining morning face, creeping like snail Unwillingly to school.” Thus Shakespeafe described the schoolboy of his day. But had the bard visited Park View School last night he would no doubt have changed his lines. There were no shining faces, but plenty of smiling faces among the children at the school, which was thrown open to inspection, with classes in 1 £, &t a joint meet- ing of the Citizens' Asso- ciation and Mothers' Club, kach person was escorted around the ‘building by a bright-eyed miss who seemed to_know the workings of everything. Those who think that the District public schools are not turning out good material from their clusses should have had one of these young guides show them around. Schoolboys at Work, On _approaching” the woodwork <hop the little guide turned and said in a ¢ grown-up manner. “Here, ill find the place where the 's study_woodcraft and e useful with their pointed to u number ers sawing and hammer- ful urticles that} they were making, 2 ‘In that m over there dramatic art is taught, and you know there are lots of benefits from such studies,” continued the young sage #% she led one around to the various classroom in which fond mothers were discussing their Willie's com- position that they had found on his desk, put there &r inspection by the visitors. One was led into ciasses that were singing and learning the principles of music. In another room there were the future housewives of th ountry learning to sew. Truly, \akespeare would have been amazed if he,had been one of those who were ahown the miniature town built from Llocks by the tots in the Kkinder- wrten. “There is the Capitol and re the and the Union station Washington Monument and the Park- view School—all built out of blocks by the ckildren in the kindergarten,” said the ever ready guide.

Dr. Tigert Speaks. John T. Tigert. United States com- missioner of education, addressed the parents and children and told them that if the District had a vote it would also have the finest school systom in the world. He urged suf- frage for the District of Columbia and declared, in comparing the sweep- ing powers of the minister of educa- tion in a European government with his own powers, that progress could not be made with the school systems throughout the country until the voters were enlightened in regard to the matter, because, he pointed out, :hey control the systems of the coun- ry. ested more in how to handle their au- tomobiles than they are in who han- dle and teach their children,” declared Mr. Tigert, in urging higher pay for the teachers. He pointed out that there was twenty times as much money being spent for cigars, cigar- ettes and cosmetics than there was being spent for education by the na- tion. He urged that at least the| people of the District should have a | voice in their school matters.
