That this burden IL indeed a heavy one
Is gathered from the fact that the value
Of parochial school property In Manhattan.
The Bronx and Richmond is 10000, 600,
and the annual expenditure for mainte-
nance is about one million. The mainte-
nance would bc more costly were IL not
that one-half of the teachers belong 10 re-
ligous communities and so are able to
teach for comparatively small salary.
The erection OF school here in New York
Is more expensive than elsewhere because
the value Of land per foot is higher than
in any other city OF the world.
luasmuch AZ so much progress has been
made recently a majority of the school
buildings are new, modern and up TO
date in every detail of their equipment.
They are nreproof and each one varies
from tho other In architectural design.
Very few schools have any endowment

The establishment OF vas. system
OF religious education carries with il the
obligation Of imparting secular educa-
ton substantially equivalent TO that given
in the State schools. 7, would DE an In
justice to Catholic children to expect them
to attend parochial schools Il they were
thereby TO be handicapped In their prepa
ration for life.
These schools therefore must no, merely
teach the minimum required by the state
laws but they reach the highest stand
ards maintained in the best public
schools. For many years past the pupils
of parochial schools have passed with
great credit the examination for entrance
TO Normal. now Hunter. College. In 1898
these schools began voluntarily to take
the Regents examinations of New York
state. This examination system In the
parochial schools has now become so
widespread and so we'll organized that
pupils from eighty schools take them in
thirteen conveniently situated centres
under the supervision OF their superIn-
tendents who are appointed District SUI
p"rintendcnts of the state for this pur-
pose. Twice year, In January and In

1t Is a mistake to infer that Catholic
schools were established I'm opposition to
public schools. and II Is likewise errone-
GUS TO believe that Catholics are enemies
of the public schools. The religious
schools antedate the public school even
In this country. All the early schools
of Colonial and Revolutionary times were
essentially religious schools. Some or
the earliest schools in this country were
established by the Jesuit and Franciscan
missionaries who came with and con-
tinued the work Of discoveries. explorers
and settlers This policy was but CON
tlnuation OF the cathedral, monastic and
cloistral schools which were so numer-
Gus In the old country in past centuries.

their ignorance tho Vrulence of prejudice
or hatred We would suggest that those
interested in the true nature OF Jesuit
schools and colleges would investigate for
themselves, or AT least read something
that has been written by those who know
the truth about Jesuit education. There
are two books quite available on this
subject: Jesuit Education" by the Rev,

what they are still doing for our country

address on the occasion of the centenary
OF the foundation of Georgetown College.
Among other very complimentary things

zens intelligently and well. ! cannot ex-

What is done Mt Georgetown Is done In
every Jesuit college. Tho teachers at
GEORGETOWN are trained with those OF all
the other Jesuit colleges in the Middle
states and Maryland. These trained
teachers work with the same tried and APP
proved methods and for the same great
and noble end.
