The Smaller School.

Last evening a subcommittee of the School
Committee consisting of Messrs. Brewer,
Thaxter and Libby, listened to the arguments
advanced by very large delegation of the
leading citizens of Ward One who desired to
have the new Smaller School graded as gram
mar and primary school instead of primary
as they had learned was contemplated by the
committee.
The delegation, through various speakers,
wished to have the 1877 grammar scholars from
their locality placed in the Smaller School !.
claiming it would be better for them, than in
the North School, where they are now assigned,
and better for the latter school.
Mr.. Files, principal of the North School,
objected on the ground that taking out the
1877 scholars from the 374 in the North Gram
mar School, would remove the best element in
the North Grammar School, render two rooms
vacant, and seriously interfere with the work
already laid out for the scholars in the sch Dol.
The delegation thought that the rooms made
vacant in the North School would be quickly
reflled; that the same work could be gone on
with as we'll by the few as the many, and
continued in the new school as well as in the
old.
The committee reserve their decision.
