STRIDES IN EDUCATION.
Nee FORKS First Public School Had

Last week children were throngng to the New
York public school houses in a polyglot stream
to register. Tomorrow the streets will be alive
with hundreds of thousands Of them on their
way to the first session of the school year. For
the occupancy of this mighty army of future
rulers of New York City the school authorities
have put in condition approximately $40 school
buildings and completed, in addition, an even
score of new ones. The buildings and the equip
ment which will be used by these children, ex-
elusive of the new buildings added within the
last year represent a capital investment of
s9S 1882 %.
Notwithstanding the great number of school
houses and the immense investment in educa-
tionaI plant. which has been ungrudgingly given,
there are children in New York City who can
attend public schools for only part of the time.
Before long the committee on elementary
schools and the Board Of Superintendent are
to make a report which. if adopted. may in
auglIrate new school policy which will make

The whimsicality of the Devil as treated by Franz Molnar in his re- markable play of that name, which Harry w.
