For education. the browning flower Of
civilization, people habitually look east
ward, but every advantage which can be
offered in finely equipped secondary schools
Of the east Is found In the wolcott school
in Denver. Colo.
II is well located also. for pupils OF this
age need a fine out of door climate, while
the advantages of the large eastern cities.
90 necessary for older pupils, are for them
distractions beyond their strength and ca
pacity.
The equipment in many respects is on a
par with that of the colleges, not only in
buildings, but it's corps of teachers, and
in its curriculum. 1t holds the right OF
entrance bv certificate to the principal
colleges east and west. and has representa-
tives in Smith, Wellesley. vassar and other
colleges. For those not contemplating col
leges 1t offers an urusual number Of
courses in music. art, history. physical cul-
ture, science, literature, modern languages
and dramatic art.
President Elliott of Harvard recently at
firmed that pupils do best will modern
languages II they begin their study in the
lower grades. since they easily make an
unconscious acquisition OF the habit of
thinking IN the new meulum OF eNpIebSlon'
Prof. Marchand at the Wolcott school does
this In accordance with Prof. Elliott's
statement. He has for years begun the
training of pupils in French at the fourth
grade. thus giving an exceptional oppor-
tunity for a complete and natural maetery
OF the language.
The Woleott school Is so well known be-
cause OF it's exceptionally high grade col
lege preparatory work that the general
public loses sight of the fact that 1t MAIN
talns also q perfectly equipped elementary
school. affording the most thorough in
~struction. Then there Is the kindergarten,
than which the school has no feature more
attractive, maintained in accordance with
the most advanced ideas. Miss Grace Laird,
whose work has been we'll known in Denver
for years, Is in charge. Fortunate are the
little ones who enjoy the happy combina-
ton of home, school and play ground which
she creates.
At the Woloott school the unprecedented
number OF visitors, applications for cata-
logues and inquiries being made point to d
most successful opening.

Notes.

A reliable index Of the growing popula-
ton OF this country Is furnished by the In
creased attendance on the opening days Of
the public schools. Reports repeat the story
told at every fall term for years past-the
story Of the demand for school accommo
dations crowding the capacity Of the
schools, and In some cases forcing resort
to half-time system. Although school au-
thoritles strive 10 meet the demand by cree
ton of new buildings. the number of such
structures erected annually in New York.
Philadelphia, Chicago and other large
cities, are insufficient to the
annual increase.
In greater New York the enrolment in
the public schools passed the 10000 mark
on the opening day and Is expected to reach
$4,000 by the close Of the second week.
With 1000 more teachers than last year,
when there were 1900 in the $50 schools,
1t is hoped to accommodate the great
throng with but a minimum number on
part time. On Monday new schools will be
opened at follows: Manhattan. two new
buildings and additions to five others, seat
Ing s,1eO children; Bronx, addition to one
school, $50; Brooklyn. five new schools and
one addition, $500; Queens, three new build
lngs, $3.50; Richmond. three additions, 1901
Last year $1,000 pupils we're put on part
time, but this term 1t is thought the num-
Der can be reduced to 5000.
The school budget of greater New York
for 1909 provides $50, OOO, 600, an increase Of
%, 95S,O0O over 1908. The increase this year IL
chiefly due to the proposed increase ol
teachers salaries, this alone occasioning

Summer Months.
1t cost the city OF Philadelphia only two
and a fraction cents a day per child to give
the S45, 49, youngsters who played in the
public school Fairgrounds this summer the
time Of their lives. The exact amount was
255 cents.
When you consider that these children
had all the attractions of amusement
parks, swings, sea-saws, sliding boards,
merry-go-rounds and sand piles. and that
they were kept out of mischief, giving the
police time to slumber, and were under the
care Of expert teachers, 1t doesn't seem
much to spend.
Hard times kept thousands of children
who usually go to the seashore or country
at home, and as a substitute the vacation
rsions and outdoor exercise offered by
the Board of Education in the fifty-four
yards it conducted were a welcome boon
to parents.
At the meeting of the special schools
committee william A, stecher, director OF
physical training, N, the public schools,
showed by,-as report on the playground
work that there were 1887 more children
in attendance at the Fairgrounds this year
than last, though there were fewer play
grounds maintained.
During July the attendance was 5l2, 400
and In August 1t was S32, 1853. Last year
there were fifty-elght yards open and an
attendance Of 1856.
