The public do not appear to understand the
position the High School Ia designed to hold.
-Journdl
The public do. But there are some who
will net understand what the public ask and
wherein the public in time past have felt
aggrieved in this matter. 1t Is doubtless true
that since the High School has been establish
ed, many pupils in our Public Schools, equally
well qualified with those who have been i'd
mltted, have seen their school days end, and
have gone ont into life without Its advantages.
In every case where this was the result Of mis-
taken zeal in " keeping the numbers down" In
the High School, there has been just ground
| Of complaint. We are aware Of no other that
has ever been put forth in the press. The
| Journal says very senEib'y.
The great demand for It, manifest}y, Is to be-
| practical school in which the Sons and
| daughters of our plain people can become
| Atted in scholastic attainments, to enable
| Them to assume those positions Of usefulness
in life, which their abilities qualify them to
| hold.
