The New Britain State Trade school is ono of the nine state trade schools maintained jointly by the state and the cities in which the schools are located. In each case the city agreea to furnish quarters, heat, light and power whilo the state bears all other expenses. These schools are unique in that they are conducted in such a manner as to offer real tralning in industry just as the regular Iligh school offers training for collegiate work. The schools are not prevoea- tional nor manual training schools but are schools offering broad basic tratning for industry. Apprentices are graduated on the basis of 5,600 hours of successful work and recelve from the New Britain scheol board a regu- lar High school diploma in recogni- tion of the thorough fundamental ed- ucation they receive in addition te their trade experience. Graduates also receive a state trade apprenticeship certificate signed by the governor and other state officials. The Trade school rounds out the New Britaih scheol system making it one of the broadest In the state since the secondary education offered the city includes the regular college preparatory and general work of the Academic Migh school, the commer- efal and business training of the commercial high and the trade and industrial tralning of the Trade school War Veterans Are Students. One very interesting phase of the trade schoo! work is the wehabilita tion of fAfty wounded world war vet- erans whom Uncle S8am is training to be self-suppeorting in spite of their injuries. ‘Those men come from all parts of New England and New Brit- ain should feel honored that one of its scheols has beon sclected hy the federal board as qualified for this type of work. The school is also deing a great of Americanization dork with men of mature age who are being taught not only English, the language | of their new country, but are also be- ing taught some trade since Ameri- can ideals demand that every eitizen be capable of self support threugh the pursuit of a respeeted calling. Basketball Team. The school has recelved consider- able publicity lately because of its very successful basketball team that has almost a clean slate to its credit in spite of the fact that athletic ac- tivity is practically confined to other than school hours which are from eight to five daily excepting Saturdays when the school is in operation only a half day. The school is in ope tion the year ‘round as the IO\IJr n SEVERE ITCHING PIMPLES ON FAGE Largeand Red. Could Not Sieep. FaceDisfigured.

'NEED IS FELT FOR MORE SCHOOL ROOM Plan for 24 Room Building A detailed report showing the need of additional school buildings was submitted at a meeting of the school committee vesterday afternoon Chairman E. Clayton Goodwin of the| erlian ecommittee on school ncrnmmodauons.' The board authorized the committee tc spend 3100 to secure plans for a tioned negotiations for the purchase o¢ two Kelsey street properties for ad- ditions to the Smith school man Goodwin remarked that the prices of the properties were exorb- itant and if they are to be secured condemnation procecedings would be advisable. . 301 Rooms Nceded. It was estimated that 301 school- rooms will be needed to take care of an enrollment of 9977 in September, but there will be only 247 available. The East street school is three rooms short: Smalley, 9; rett, 6; Smith, 2; Lincoln, 1: Rartlett, 5; Osgood Hi{ll, 1, and the Junior High, 26. There are two extra rooms at the Roekwell school, both of which are, however, in the portable building. At the Camp school there are four ex- tra rooms and at the Academic High, there is one extra room. There are six extra rooms at the High school The report as follows: of this statement reveals a net shortage of forty school rooms and an actual shortage of fifty- three schoo! rooms, since the thirteen extra school rooms are so located as t¢ bo unavailable for the relief of those buildings in which shortages ‘ continues, ' will occur. If the schools are arrang- i “An examination ed in groups according to loeation, it I= easy to see where the most serious problems will exist. Conditions Crowded. “Group 1. shortage September, 1921; Ellhu Bur- ritt, ¢ room and Bartlett school, 5 room; total shortage, 20 rooms. is evident that there is serious necd for immediate attention to the pro- vision of a building on the Carmody fot in order to relievéd the serious overcrowding in the north end of the city, in the Smalley, Bartlett and Eli- (hu Burritt schools. and at the same time to afford room for the Junior High school at the north end. “Group TII.
