was given hearty reception, followed by
rounds of applause Commissioner Mac
farland. in addressing the association and
citizens of Takoma Park, said, in part
1T is a great pleasure to take part in
your rejoicing, and to find a community
that heartily welcomes school house
For, strange as it may seem, the Com
missioners find, In searching for sites
that school houses are not welcome every
where. Everybody is in favor of popular
education in the abstract, but everybody
is not in favor of public schools in the
concrete-that is to say, in the neighbor-
hood. After the Commissioners, with
some effort, secure from Congress the
in the District of Columbia where we
have not enough to accommodate the
school population, they have to make, in
some cases, an even greater effort to find
site which can be used without serious
protest. With several thousand children
waiting for adequate school accommoda-
tions with everybody agreeing that we
ought to have not only popular educa-
ton, but compulsory education as a sure
foundation for the future safety and sue
cess of the community, We find reputable
citizens in large numbers making the Sc
lection of the most eligible sites difficult by
their protests.
An Attractive Building.
ut Is, therefore. delightful to know
that Takoma Park likes it's school house,
as we'll it may, not only for the general
reasons which apply everywhere through
out this republic of education, but be-
cause of the attractiveness Of this par
ticular building. OF all the 100 school
houses of the District Of Columbia none
Is more beautiful nor more convenient
In its opening there Is all the significance
OF the opening Of life, for 1t Is alive with
intelligence and with promise 1t is for
tunate that its work begins at the OPEN
ing of century with all its possibilities
for American boys and girls. 1t Is for
tunate that it Is in the national capital
which has always been an intellectual
capital and which Is now a great univer-
sity community with $500 students on the
rolls of the institutions Of higher learning
enjoying its unexampled advantages for
liberal culture.
lit Is fortunate in being under the care
of the board of education. which has al
ready done SO much for the Improvement
Of our public school system and whose ad-
ministration promises even better things.
1t is fortunate in being under the direction
OF our admirable super1nt endent of public
schools and his experienced and efficient
assistants. The Commissioners of the Dis
trict Of Columbia, who must have a deep
and abiding interest in every one Of the
public schools. heartily congratulate the
citizens of Takoma Park upon the auspi-
cious opening Of this one'
