This simplifics instruction and affords
more time to it. In school of mixed clas
scs half an hour might be devoted to class
OF only one or two scholars.
This bill provides that such a school
shall be established in every city, town and
incorporated village where it is desired
No one will deny the necessity of high
school in each ofthcsc communities, and va
| rious plans have been proposed whereby to
meet the necessity. One of these plans is
to have the people contribute certain
fees to supplement- the public fund and to
make these Ices compulsory where the par
ties agree to pay them. An objection to
this Is that it tends to give the control Of
the public schools too much into the hands
of a few individuals who contribute to their
support. Another objection to it is that it
does not tax man according to his ability
but according to his willingness. and in
certain months Of the year it would be
inadequate to meet the cXigcncics of those
months. Another plan is to divert the
State fund and give it to private enterprises.
This is so clearly unconstitutional that |
need not stop to argue that it will not do.
Another plan is that after the school fund
has been exhausted, then that private par
ties contribute voluntarily to the support
of the schools. This plan has been tried
and has signally failed.
Now let us see what this bill provides.
take it for granted that there is not
member on this floor who will not willingly
join In any feasible plan to assist in the
education Of the rising generation of the
State. We propose to supplement- the
school fund by local taxation and establish
system of graded high schools. Now,
what are the objections to the bill? 1t has
