The Penn's Grove record., 1914-01-02


ents. as members of school boards, as
teaclers, we are trying to do for the
children and youth committed to our
CHARGE
Do we support the public school for
the sake Of training intelligent voters 7
Why, half the scholars in these public
schools, unless there shall be 9 consti-
tutionai amendment enlarging the basis
OF suffrage, Will never vote at all. And
then DO we pretend that Latin and
French, and physics and chemistry
and the twenty OF thirty branches
taught in the high school are necessary
TO At . boy to cast an intelligent vote I
We have long slnce left THIS motive far
behind IN the fi0erallty Of our provision
for pupllc instruction. The political
motive ls not large enough 70 explain
our devotion 70 our puoiic SCHOOLS.
