New York, Nov. 13.-Work probably
will be under way on the approaches
for the $1,7OO,OOO Manhattan bridge
plazas very shortly and it is expected
that the job will take eighteen months
to complete. The Manhattan bridge is
the greatest and costliest Of INTERIOR
ough spans and was opened Dec. 81,
1909, since which time its upkeep has
been enormous.
AS the bridge stands now it ends
upon each side Of the East river at the
terminal of the steel structure-Diyi-
sion street in Manhattan and Sands
street in Brooklyn. Down from these
abutments course the temporary road
ways. 1t is planned to build an ap--
proach in Manhattan from Canal street,
2,O67 feet long, at cost of ST 100000.
1t will extend from Bayard to Canal
street and from Forsythe to the Bow
cry The Brooklyn approach to the
bridge from Willoughby street will be
1920 feet long and cost about $700,O0O.
The entrance to the bridge from Man
haitian will resemble in the elliptical
effect the cOlOnnade Of st. Peters at
Rome, while the arch in the center will
resemble Port st. Denis in Paris The
sidewalks are to be laid in mOsaics.
There will be small park at the en-
trance to the bridge, which will be
raised above the surrounding streets.
AS it Is arranged that cars of the
new subway system shall pass over
the Manhattan bridge, it is planned to
have them pass into a tunnel which
goes under the plaza. while the surface
cars are to pass around the colonnade
to the east, emptying into Canal street.
Elevated trains will leave the bridge
upon the opposite side from that taken
by the surface cars.
Upon the Brooklyn end of the bridge
the roadway will be carried down to
the middle Of the plaza, and the en-
trance will have two pylOns of granite
masonry. There will be a park. as upon
the Manhattan side, and one will ride
or walk to the level Of the bridge
through green foliage in summer.

An Educational Innovation.

New York, Nov. 12.-The committee
on textbooks and studies in the public
schools Of the city, after long consider
ing the problem Of the school curricu-
lum and the opinions of superintend-
ents, principals Of the high and Gle
mentary schools, supervisors of special
branches and teachers, advocated that
pupils in public elementary schools be
allowed TO take special work at the end
Of their sixth year in order to fit them
for some definite practical vocation for
after life. Along with any vocational
work they select, work will be given in
regular academic subjects. so that
trade may return to the regular aca
demic course and prepare for high
school. The main reason for this voca-
tional choice at the end Of the sixth
year is that many pupils leave day ele
mentary schools at the end Of the
sixth year to go to work. and it is be-
lieved some Of these would stay in
school longer if afforded the opportuni-
ty OF learning some trade or gaining
knowledge Of some vocation to be pur-
sued in after years.
Boston has such a system. At the
end Of the sixth year pupils may
