HERBERT Hoover Herbert Hoover, our next President, says: BAN ON POLITICS IN SCHOOLS URGED (Continued from First Page) Listing things which modern schools need to bring about the above conditions Mr. Holmes men- and clean and in the open air; school buildings that are attractive plctures, suitable seating for all children, libraries, gymnasiums, art room science rooms, kindergarten, teachers’ rooms. “We believe that sound health as well as poise and balance or char- acter are affected considerably by wholesome, attractive and happy environment, and we believe in (hr right of the child to have such sur-" roundings. “Another thing about which we are concerned is to treat each ohild as an individual and not as a mere unit in a class. Mr. Holmes spoke of the social education being given pupils by clubs which exist inside the schools. saying there are 12 in the high school. Here he said they are taught self government. In closing, Mr. Holmes called at- tention to the fact that the schools in New Britain are giving the pupils the best they have, and are striving to comply with the needs of the children and the community as well as the recommendations of the state. He said, “The worst thing that can happen to any school sys- tem is to let politics interfere with school work, the same as has hap- pened in Chicago. It is the duty of the citizens of New Britain to see that the schools are kept free from politics. Our main object is the ! benefit of the individual and not of the man who has gomething he wants to sell to the school depart- ment."” Watkins’ Partners Hartford,Nov. 8 (#—Three of the once ostensible partners of R.
