Closing the Schools.

For three months teachers and pupils
of the public schools will have a rest from
work. They are able to look back upon a
period Of useful achievement and forward
to resumption of their labors after a
season Of recreation. Retrospect and pros
pect show scme highly flattering pictures,
but also few that are not SO pleasant to
contemplate. Foremost among the former
is the general excellence Of our public
schools. Few cities can make as good an
EXHIBIT in this respect as Washington; still
less, il indeed any, surpnes it. The gradu-
ates OF the Washington schools fiji honora-
bic positions In all walks Of life. both in
this city and elsewhere, and the coed train
ing they have obtained gives warrant for
the assumption that their successors will
be equally well equipped.

make the necessary appropriations for ac-
commodations sufficient for all the Chill

to the public approbutiop, aud again, when
there was aDything of real merit the prices
were at once raised up to such figures az to
deter all save those with weIi-fiilcd purses.
In fact, it is question II the general run
of prices at the leading theaters in large
cities are not too high for the great ma
jority OF the people who, under ether cir
cumstances, would be the best patrons.
Few managers will contradict the asser-
ton that if they had to depend upon the
wealthy classes their receipts would be very
materially decreased. 1t Is the people of
moderate incomes who most frequent these
places Of amusement.
Here is point which theatrical mana gers
will do we'll to consider. II they stop pay-
ing absur1iy high prices to few great
singers. or to an exceptionally talented
actress, they can find their reckoning
Let them engage well balanced companies
