EnnIiah sohooI eox camp..

We are familiar with the open-air school, but at Harrow. iE England, the County Council Is of opinion that this system is capable of extension. so the headmaster has arranged for every boy in the county school to encamp Tor a week in turn in the playing aelds. The boys will sleep in tents. and attend themselves to all their wants, even doing their own cooking one day during the week. They will rise at 6.30 a. m. and turn in at 9:S0 D. n., and there will be five hours teaching daily There can be little 5oubt that such a system carries with t many advantages. It teaches boys .o be self-reliazt, tidy, and useful. and Will entail no extra cost on the rates, 3ther than that of the tents, for the boys provide their own food.
