Too Many School Holidays.
Members of the town school commit
tee of Killingly are advocating the
adoption of the plan recently put in
force in the neighboring town of Put
ram whereby the number of holidays
during the school year is reduced to
minimum. 1t is pointed out that on
days when by reason of prevailing
storms the signal for one session is
blown that more often than not the
pupils spend the time they get off in
playing out in the wet at greater risk
to their well being than if they were in
school: also that the expense for the
teachers is still going on just the same
as if the schools were in session. Rel
alive to the single holidays that are
eprtnl1ed through the year, it is sug-
gested that special instructive exer-
cises in the schools would do more to
make a lasting impression as to the
man or event honored than to close the
buildings and release the children for
the day. In town and cities where
such plan as is here outlined has
been adopted the results obtained have
been very satisfactory. There are
sometimes occasions, however, when it
IS felt that to close the schools for a
half or whole day is proper policy;
the object aimed at under the restrict
ed vacation plan is to eliminate I'M
necessary Interruptions to the work of
the school war
