The intention Is to follow, to some eX-
tent, the plan of the Pratt institute OF
Brooklyn.
We realize fully that the pupils Of the
High school have already enough to do but
the superintendent feels sure that this
branch can be introduced with very little
additional tax on the students.

well 70 the ways of her household. But
sone girls have no mother. some mothers
do not know how TO cook. and some are
so situated that IL Is not convenient to give
