a SINGLE SESSION
Editor of The Times:

Editor of The Times:
Sjr-ln 1924 the question of having
two school sessions each day, with q
midday recess Of an hour and nan.
instead Of a single session with haii
hour recess at noon was under cnsldet-
alton by the School Board. Ihat theS
might ascertain the custom OF the couh-
Try in general circular were sent to the
.7I,perintendents of number of cities,
North and South, asking for their plans,
and the seasons therefor. These superin-
,endents responded prmptly and fully. \
comparison of these statistics led 10
some interesting conclusions.
The plan adopted confirms closely 10
The domestic customs Of the commu-
nity-two sessions when the dinner hour
is al or about noon--one session WheFe
The dinner hour is later.
This fact also appears, that Northern
cities as a rule have two daily ses-
3 ons and Southern cities only one. All

schools.
Five hours of actual school work, IN
dependent OF recesses. is generally con-
ceded to he enough for day
The question should be decided, they
say by what is best for the healsh
and instruction of the pupils. under the
CDluttDnS i'itotiItSN 'AS SssAA
community. :
After a careful consideration of these
repiies in the light of our own social Gus
toms the board decided that it was best
for US to retain the single daily ses-
sion.
In This decision l personally concnrred'
and think it the wisest course for U. 10
putsuc 1t ought to be said, however,
that neither plan is free from practicai
difficulties The single session may oc-
casioa somewhat undue strain on the
pupils, bus they prefer generally to nave
all their playtimc together in the al
ternoon. when they can throw off more
fuzzy the tedium of the school work
The double session adds to the strain
on the teacher. If the schools are open
