Town Topics.
Our Public Schools.
SOME COMPARISONS IN ATTENDANCE.

SOME COMPARISONS IN ATTENDANCE.
The parochial schools opened in Sep
tember, 1895. Their effect upon four OF
the largest district schools in the town
may be seen by the following compari-
son: The year before, C9+'95,) the larg-
est number registered in the Middle
school was %, and the largest average
attendance for one term was 18 81. In
1896, the first year of the parochial
schools, the largest number registered
was y, and the largest average for any
term was SO. The size OF the Middle
school was reduced more than half, but
the appropriation was the same, 1925. In
the North Center school, the largest num-
ber registered, '94.'95, was 33, and the
largest average attendance %. In 1896,
only Is were registered and the largest av-
erage was 8. But the appropriation was
the same, 1926. The largest number reg
istered in the Pootatuck school, '94-'95,
was 30, and the largest average attend
ance 40. In 1896, "a were registered
and the largest average attendance 1917.
But the appropriation continued the same,
5000. The largest number registered for
one term in the Sandy Hook school,
"a '95, was los, and the largest average
attendance 697. In '95.'96, the largest
number registered was 50, and the larg-
est average 64,2. But the appropriation
remained the same, $3.50.
In June '96, the joint-board reduced
the appropriations. to ease the public
mind; for the Middle 500, North Center
800, Pootatuck 500, Sandy Hook $50!
For the last year, '96-'97, the Middle
school appears to have made a slight
gain; the largest number registered
being 13, and the largest average at
tendance 1918 which is quite remark
able! But TIE North Center has lost
grouLd, having registered at the highest
Is as against IS, with an average of DC.
The Pootatuck has fallen from "a to 30
as to the number registered. Sandy
Hook has gone down from 80 to &c
registered, and from GA 2 to AS average
attendance, and what it will be next
year depends very much upon who the
teachers are, perhaps.
The parochial schools have been very
successful to all appearances. In some
respects they are probably the best
schools in the town. If l were Roman
Catholic, taking the public schools as
they are, should send my children to
the parochial schools. l am not q
Roman Catholic, but 1 would send my
boys to the parochial schools rather than
to some of the public schools such as
they have been. The parochial schools
have evidently come to stay and they
will be likely to increase in favor.
They are generally spoken of in the
highest terms, and their influence has
without any doubt been a blessing to
the town.
For myself, do not believe that any
thing can take the place, in the long
run, of the public schools. But the
practical question at present is this: Do
the people who are supporting the
parochial schools, the Newtown Acad-
emy and other private schools, wish to
be taxed to pay for the public schools
that are no longer ded?-[O. o.

to see large snake trying to get into the

color with scarlet ring around its neck.
During the struggle one of the oars was
broken and when the snake finally sue

were greatly frightened. Mr. Roth, how
ever, killed it with the heavy stone used
