Boston culture is the portable school
house. Boston schools, like those OF
other large cities. are crowded. II be-
came impossible 10 build permanent
schools fast enough TO supply the de-
mand. and so halls. churches, etc, were
hired.
This was very expensive, and IL was
learned that IL was more economical 10
build wooden structures outright than ii
