The Engli.h school Law.

For few years back the question OF
raising the age for halt-time exemption Ol
children from school has been in the air.

the age at which half-tlmers were taken

when the education acts came IN force there
were other difficulties placed In the way
of children getting to work. Latterly the
education OF children has occupied iair
share of the attention. both OF Parliament
and public men, and an association,
which has for its object the promotion OF
evening continuation schools, considers the
time ripe for making an effort to get the
half-tjme age raised from ten to twelve
