of the short session for the school
year which commences Sept. LIST,
| it certainly seems advisable for
parents, who will be patrons of
| the school, to look into the merits
and dement's of the innovation
before accepting it, for after the
establishment of a measure con-
cerning so many people, great
deal of confusion would naturally
larise from a change back again
to the old order of things.
| The point which has been most
lstrongly stressed by those in
flavor of the short session is the
elimination of the noon intermis-
sion, thus relieving the children
of the necessity of going home
for dinner. This is just til e
place where, from the view point
of a disinterested party, the new
regime is the weakest. The
child that leaves home at nine
O'Clock in the morning, to return
at noon, does not need to carry
luncheon, but the one that leaves
home at eight-ifteen or eight.
thirty, to stay till one-ffteen or
lone-thirty, must have something
to eat in the interim. There will
be two intermrssions of fifteen
minutes each; neither of them
Ilong enough for child to go home
| for a lunch, but each of them long
enough for children to take a
hasty bite from the baskets and
packages Of cold snack that they
will carry. And let no fond par
ent or visionary member of the
lschool board de1ude themselves
with the idea that the children
will not carry lunches. They
will carry them. And they will
carry them as a matter of neces-
sity. For those children are few
and far between who will be in
duced to go without food for six
and one-half or seven hours, and
this is what they must do if the
whole school day is pressed into
lone session, even though that
session is an hour shorter than
the school day as it. is now accept
led. School children invariably
breakfast with the family, and
the majority of families in Fitz-
lger aid breakfast at six or six
thirty, and very few later than
seven.
Breakfast, then, is the last
Esquare meal the young brain
worker will get until supper, and,
drawing conclusion again from
the arrangements in the majority
of homes, this will be six or six
thirty or possibly in many cases,
as late as seven in the evening.
|Of course hot dinner, freshly
prepared, could be served to the
school children when they come
home at two or two-thirty o'clock,
but this will necessitate double
work on the part of the cook, who
in many cases is the wife and
mother, housekeeper and nurse
girl, all in one. Or to spare the
trouble of preparing two midday
meals the men of the household,
those at least who are employed
where regular hours are required
Iof them, could eat a picked-up
| bite at twelve o'clock, and wait
till six-thirty for square meal.
How ever the midday meal is
ARRANGED, not only the school
child, but every other member of
the family as well, will be made
the victims of an arrangement
