Los ANGELES EDUCATIONAL
SYSTEM LAUDED
Regular Exercises Held for 1850 Ele-
mentary Scholars Of More
Than Ordinary
Merit

The school system of Los Angeles
has been a model held up to the world
for many years. 1t has shown such inn
provement under the regime of DR.. Il.
c. Moore that other cities and states
frankly admit that they cannot hope
to overtake the holder of the palm
down in the southwestern corner Of the
United States.
During the past week the results of
the system have stood forth prOmi-
nently. More than 115O graduates of
the city's elementary schools hal en-
tered the splendid high schools of Los
Angeles. This army of students won
their honors through standings which
are unequaled
The pupils taking up the heavier ed
ucational pursuits are but young chill
dren in years. Through mentality de-
veloped in a school system second to
aene they are masters Of greater
knowledge than most of their parents
received in common schools and lower
grades in the high schools of the form
er generation.
The average age of the scholars who
have just passed into the higher insti-
tutions is not 10 years. Many of the
children are one, two and three years
younger. Therefore it was fitting that
the signal houors won by these intelli-
gent and advanced juveniles should be
recognized through regular graduating
exercises. The occasion was as inn
portant and meant as much to these
talented scholars as to the most grave
and reverend senior who ever received
a sheepskin or a degree from a uni
versity.
Therefore The Herald deems II a
pleasure TO record the names of eighth
grade scholars who go 10 make up the
great roll of honor in Los Angeles FOR
1910. That they will maintain the
high reputation of high and polytech-
mic schools cannot be questioned. They
are the children of the most favored
city on earth.

is proud:
