"TIME NOT RIPE FOR
ALL-YEAR SCHOOLS"
Supt. Thurston Says Commissioner
Claxton's Idea Could Not Be
Adopted at Present.

There is a marked tendency toward
| shortening school vacations. but as for
school all the year, as suggested by Com
missioner OF Education Claxton. II is
something far in the future"
This statement was made by Ernest L.
Thurston, superintendent of schools, last
night.
Personally, do not think 1t is prac-
ticable to have the same kind of work
through the entire year" continued Mr..
Thurston, "or the same hours, especially
in Washington, where the summers are
notoriously hot. But II has been pro-
posed that we have vacation schools in
which there is more work with the hands
and practical application OF theory, such
as shopwork and gardening. The hours
would be shorter than the regular school
hours. but there would be the advantage
Of being able to direct the activities OF a
child during the summer. Along this
line are makeup schools, in which
pupils who have fallen behind In their
work can take such studies as will put
them back In their classes
TT has been suggested that a child
should have the same privilege as his
elders in working during the day and
resting or playing In the evening, in
stead of preparing lessons for the next
day. 1t is suggested that the school
hours during the day be heightened and
that all studying be done In school.
The year-round school is something
that will come in time, but II must
gradually make its need felt. DR.. Clax-
ton is a far-seeing man who is advanced
in educational matters beyond any popu-
lar appreciation His plan cannot be
adopted now or suddenly, at any time.
but there are tendencies in its direction
and gradual steps that will bring US to
continuous schooling some day."
