the friendly spirit which inspired it, l did
not say that our children would be obliged
to attend the public schools in order to be
good citizens. did say that knowledge
of the language OF the country was neces-
sary for an intelligent American citizen
ship. This knowledge can be obtained in
the private school, the public school or the

the child can receive this instruction. The
friends of compulsory education have no
desire to Interfere with the private or pa

They only ask that all children shall have
an equal opportunity for advancement and
they cannot have such an opportunity for
advancement without knowledge Of the
language of the country. Yours very
