PARIS SCHOOL COLONY.
Plan for Sending Youngsters to the
Country for a Breath of Real Air.

Plan for Sending Youngsters to the
Country for a Breath of Real Air.
In Harper's Magazine for September,
Stoddard Dewey tells Of a fresh-air
colony run by the municipality Of Paris
for the poor school children Of certain
DISTRICTS:
"When May days are warm in Paris"
says Mr.. Dewey, " a spring fever seizes
on the primary school children of the
Eleventh ward. In each school the di-
rector passes among the boys and the
directress among the girls, taking
names and looking carefully at faces.
The question is, which of the 5000 chill
dren between 10 and 10 years Of age
shall make part of the 1000 who, in
country, far away toward the Vosges
| mountains, for three weeks stays, from
June to September?
Neither the class record Of the chill
dren nor Eve the conduct, good, bad,
| or Indifferent, is taken into account.
And-oh, irony of Paris school child
| fate!-it is not the pest scholars that
are to have the first chance. 1t is the
dull. the backward. and the ailing that
| are to profit by the first migration in
late spring and early summer; the
bright and forward must wait until
they have won their school prizes in
late July.
1.-THE father or legal guardian OF the
child must sign a declaration releas-
ing the city authorities from all re-
sponsibility in case Of accident. He
receives in return a list of things with
which the child colonist must be sup
plied-a change of linen for each week,
wraps, a Sunday gown for the girls,
a comb, soap, AND a tooth brush-'an
! object says the report, the use Of
which. is generally unknown
1.-The departure is made as solemn as
possible, for the parents sake perhaps
rs much as for the children's. The
MARE Of the ward and other municipal
officers and the members Of the school
fund are present; it is this volunteer
school fund. aided by subsidies from
the municipality, which pays for these
vacations of the poor. The vacation is
passed in an old-time Chateau is the
appropriate word. for in French slang
when none is supplied by the public
funds-It is the princess who pays"
