The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1897-09-13

TO the Editor Of the indianapolis Journal:
1 wish to speak through your columns
OF the high appreciation we, as parents,
have for the recent act of the School Board
in giving our children halliday sessions.
and would beg OF them to give an extern
sion through September. The first few
weeks of school have always been fraught
with danger, both to pupil and teacher, by
all-day sessions. after vacation of several
weeks. The schools are overcrowded, the
large number in a room consumes the vi
tally of the weaker ones, and such con-
slant application for so many hours causes
in many instances ruin of children for
life. Why is IL that pupils are kept in
school more hours than any other school
of like size in the United States? II chill
dren could be released at 2:30 D. m. they
would come out of school with stronger
bodies better eyes and would be much
stronger in the end intellectually. There is
not a physician in the city who is not de-
ploring the intense strain put upon the chill
dren of the public schools. The teachers
are not TO blame. They are given the work
to do. and 1t must be done, even If it does
cost the life of the children. l am sure IL
the parents who pay the taxes to educate
their children, and who ought to have In
fuence, could have a vote in the matter
two hours day. This would also be a
great thing for the teacher, who would
have physical strength enough left after
her days work to store her mind with
