Tuesday evenings at 9:30 from Station WTIC | PUPLS ENTERTAIN AT PUTNAM SCHOOL Provide Program of Songs and Dances—P, F. King Speaks A short, but well balanced pro- gram of music and dancing by pupils of the Israel Putnam achool was presented before a large audience in the auditorfum of the school last night in observance of the National Education Week. Well deserved | commendations were voiced for the excellence with which the youngsters filled their part of the program. Mra. A. Lange. vice president of the Parents and Teachers' associa- | | tion presided and after the business i meeting pupils of the fifth and sixth | grades rendered a group of songs, upon the completion of which Miss Doris Bradley, soprana, sang Rus- scll’'s “Poor Man's Garden” and a | descriptive negro melody entitled “A ! Little Bit of Honey” by Jacobs- Bond. P. . King, chairman of the school | board, was introduced and em- | | phasized the necessity of cooperation | between the parent and the teacher in educating the child. He said that the responsibility of bringing up and educating the young cannot be placed entirely in the hands of the teacher, as the child is under the guidance of the teacher for only about one-fifth of a year's time and that it is the parent’s duty to carry out the program set down for the pupil by the teacher during the time the child is at home. The speaker further said that the city as well as the state is greatly interested in the welfare and educa- tion of its children, as no community and no astate can be measured in quantities of its mercantile and bus- iness establishments, but by its educational system. It is the duty of the parents to see that their children take advantage of the excellent op- | portunities afforded. The state makes a law compelling children to go to school to a certain age and finish a certain course of study, he said, this | being necessary so that the child, when it reaches the age of maturity, can be of advantage to the state in which it is a resident, and not be a soclal parasite and a drawback to the progressive life of each com- munity. Invites Parents to Schools Mr. King further compared the educational system of today with that of former years, stating that this city can be proud of the fine public schools and also commented on the excellent cooperation between par- | ents and teachers which has been in | evidence in the past. He also invited |the parents not only to interest them. | selves in the school where their chil- dren are pupils, but to visit other schools in the city and come in | closer contact with those under { whose care their children are placed. After Mr. King's address, the girls of the fifth and sixth grades present- ed a group dance, and the program | was concluded with songs by puplls of the same grades. Prior to the opening of the meeting, visitors to the classrooms viewed the work done by the children in the different grades.
