MEssps. EpI1oas.-The Board Of Education
hare given notice that au examination of pupils
for admission to the High School will take place
in about three weeks Allow me to ask whether
this is 10 be M hoakt procedure, in order TO the
aetual admifsioa Of pupils who are really quali-
lied 10 euter, or whether the form Of cxamina-
tiou is to take place with the previous certainty
Of refusal to nearly all applicants: .sk this,
because it is vel known that the teachers aud
the Doarl are in favor Ct admissions only once
4 rear, in the Summer; aud because, while
there is abundant room Tor many more scholars,
it is said that no more are desired, lest an addi
tional teacher should be needed.
Il las leaked ont, 50 am told, that the plan
is to have an cxatnination. but to make the
questions so much >nore difficult than usual, or
10 1atse the average afsos9set answer$ 30 ulueh
higher thnn heretofore, rs to exclude nearly oil
tie applicants am informed that one who is
entrusted with tho necessary arrangements has
Significantly remarked. "TheFe will be an e1s
amination, but it remains to be seen how many
will be admitted"
Now against aDT such procedure protest in
tho name Of parents who hare right to de-
utxnd Us favorable an opportunity for their
children to enter the schoOl as has been accord
cd to others. The average required for admIs-
sion has been raised for several successive ex-
aminations, till the last occasion itwns placed
At sevcnty-agrade which exc'ad ed some who
could i'll afford to wait six months longer. To
90 higher than this, for the express purpose of
excluding qualified applicants will ba an outrage
upon The parents whose children arc now pre-
pared for examination.
The expense Of another teacher would moi
| add more than ten cents on an average TO the
| tax Of each taxpayer, aud to sase sucl paltr,
| sun shall the great city of Chicago shut ou
her own children from the High School: Au1
] let it he remembered also that such is the ag'
| Of souc Of the applicants, that to he thrown
oscr unnecessarily, (when they hare passed a:
| good an examination rs has kufhced to sdmt
those now in the school,) will be the same thin:
as to be excluded permanently. Our boys ant
| girls will nut cease to grow old because tn
board Of Education wish to sare tLousan'
dollars. 1t is matter Of simple Justice that al
who are reasonably qualified should be admitte
