and started for home. At this point

Summer street. where the car tack il,
through to Hill street.. AS he was driv-
ing along this passageway his view of

To the Editor of the Press:

To the Editor of the Press:
The evening Advertiser of Saturday
last thinks the amendments placing
women at large on the school board viii
he defeated by large vote. Why SO,
since everywhere the movement once
tried has met with success? All school
boards in Massa chusetts are open to
women, and have been for more than
twenty years. In Philadelphia, as ia,
back as 1883 the school reports make most
favorable mention of the admirable work
of female assistant superintendents, and
in their recent municipal election four
women were given the honor Of school
directors, three of whom were elected on
the regular Republican ticket. In an
address delivered by the venerable Doc.
tor A. P. Peabody of Cambridge, who
had been a member of the school CON-
mittee for eight or nine years. he makes
an earnest plea for the suffrage of women
as well as Of men. He says: 1T is ad.
mitted, believe in Boston, that the
schools have never had more able and
efficient servants than the women on
the schoo. board. But ii
women are 10 De 6loCt6Q IOr GnlS service
in any considerable number, it must be
mainly through the influence of women,
The best know who among themsely es
are fitted for this woak: and they, in
general, are far more sclicitious than
men to have the work well done. Every
mother worthy of the name is an eduea-
tor. Men bear comparatively a small part
in the training Of their children. The
child's first lessons are at it's mother q
knee. She understands child nature is
Honversant with the avenues to the
ohilds' mind and heart. -. -. There
are mnny fathers VINO scarcely see their
children except on Sunday. Meanwhile,
the mother has the ohild'a confidence,
asks him about his school experiences,
hears from him whatever has interested
him at school, tests his knowledge OF
letters and their powers. Of words and
their meaning, of numbers and their
com binations, keeps herself en- courant
with his school life. School should be
regarded, not as separate institution
from the home worthy of the name, but
as the extension and complement of the
home. We must look to women to make
our schools more homelike. ~

Y. M. C. A..

Much interest has been manifested by
the citizens of Portland in the new Y.
NJ. e. A. building upon which work
was begun several days ago. This inter-
est is we'll warranted, for the coed which
this organization has done and is doing
among the young men Of our city can
hardly be estimated; but the new build
ing with all its first class accommodate
tions and equipments will afford far
greater opportunities for usefulness.
When project Is on foot whose object
Is to help their SONS and brothers, the
ladies are always anything but indiffer-
emit, and SO some time ago the Woman IS
Aux liary to the Y. NJ. G. A. pledged
several thousand dollars towards the
building fund. In the fall Of the years
go, '9l and '92, they held very success
full fairs in City hall, and since then
have, been working in . qniot way until
a large part of their pledge has been
paid. OF the last subscription of $1,000,
however, $4,000 is yet to be raised, and SO
the ladies are preparing to hold in City
hall next October building sale for
about four days, when no sacrifice of
time or convenience will be spared by
them TO give high class entertainments
each evening, together with well regn-
lated dining room where meals will be
served in first class manner, In fact,
nothing which care and attention with
good management can give will be want
ing to make this most enjoyable and
successful affair.
Notice is given thus early that the
many friends Of the Y. NJ. G. A. may
be prepared when the time comes to CO.
operate heartily with the ladies, and in
this way assure to this project success
worthy Of its object.
