N A CRITICISING THE SCHOOLS 1t is usually difficult to work up much sympathy for the critics of the school system. To listen to some ot them everything is always wrong. Schools cost too much, the children don’t learn cnough three Rs, there are too many fads and fancies, and now the school conimittee is charged with being partial in selecting teachers, of being political-minded, and of being bent on playing re- ligion, All of which fails to stir up much excitement in the cerebrum power house, The city owes & debt of grati- tudego Secretary Henry T. Burr for meeting the charges foursquare and disposing of them in toto. The cost of school insurance, the cost of installing sprinklers, and the problem of adding enough mnew buildings to take care of the an ticipated congestion within the next few years are far more important.

The first was adopted in 1639, and was fortified and protected by the charter granted by King Charles II in 1662, The second which was adopted in 1818, with its suhsequent amendments, forms the organic law of the state at present. After the Declaration of Independence, cleven of the thirteen original states adopted State constitutions. Connecticut con- tinued under “the ancient form of civil government contained in the charter” of 1662. Early in the 19th century, however, the development of manu- factures. the discontent of non-conforming religious sects and the confusion of the executive, legislative and judiclal branches of the government in the existing constitution opened the way for a political revolution. In the state election of 1817 the dis- contented clements united with the Democratic party and de- feated the Federalists who had been in power for many yeara. The following year a convention was called to frame a new cons tion, which was ratified on October 5, 1818. The con- stitution defined more clearly than did the old charter the principles of personal liberty. It cstablished the rights of suf- fr on personal qualifications, discarding property condition, reorgunized the courts, separating them from the leglslatur. dissolved the union of church and state; provided for two branches of the legislature, and other important changes. Thirty-seven amendments have been added. Tomorrow—Connecticut’s Place in “Time” Industry. . By Fontaine Fox (" Fortaine Fox. 1928, The Bell S.rdicste, Ine)
