WASTEFUL VACATIONS
SPURNED BY CLAXTON
Education Commissioner Says School
Only Takes 900 Hours Out
of 5,ll0.
ADVOCATES WORK IN SUl.MER

While DENYING certain statements at
,r;hutad to him, Dr. p. P. Claxton. United
States Commissioner OF Education. today
-.,,eratcd his belief in continued school
activity Of some kind in summer months
for most children.
The schools should provide some klno
NJ instruction for the children through
what is now in most cities long waste
full vacation" declares DIR. Claxton- ne
noints out that school takes at most 800
homrs a year out Of 5.llO waking hours,
assuming ten hours OF sleep for children
eyerv night. The average child SPENDS
about sDO hours in school and the remain
inc 5I0 waking hours out Of school, Dr'
Claxton suggests that summer work last
not longer than four hours-from 10 .
o'clock TO II or - o'clock in the forenoon.
According to DR.. Claxton. the school OF
the future both in summer and winter
will give less time to intensive school
study of the ordinary type-prooaoIy
about three hours-and four or five hours
to productive work supervised by the
school. done in shops, outdoor gardens,
or in the home.
with this kind of an organization, ne
declares. lit would be very easy for
children to do ordinary school work three
hours a day. six days in the week,
through eleven calendar months in the
wear. and at the same time contribute
largely to their own support by we'll
directed productive educational work
either at home or in the school, thus
making it possible for the great majority
of children to remain in school through
| out the high school period.
The cost of adding the three months
OF school would be comparatively little.
There would be no cost for fuel. the
| cost Of attendance would be less, and the
| additional cost for teachers would not be
in proportion to the number OF days
added. Whatever may be the terms OF
| the contract. teachers are, in fact. en-
/ ployed by the year. Comparatively few
| Of them use the vacation months in any
profitable way. An average addition OF
500 to the annual salary OF city school
teachers would require a total of less
than SO Ooo.ooO. or about per cent Of the
total annual cost of the schools. For
most teachers the additional months
would not be a hardship. especially II the
school days were shortened. Certainly
this is true II teachers could be relieved
of a large amount OF the unnecessary
bookkeeping. report making. and exami
nation reading with which they are now
burdened."

A resort that is rapidly. gaining
favor among tourists is Wernersvtlle,
Pa. Delightfully."- situated in the Penn
sylavnia mountains, nine miles from
Reading and one hour from Harris
burg.
The mountains around wernersville
are unequaled in many respects, ana
are particularly noted for the dryness
of the air. This Is attributed 10 the
absence of any adjacent large bodies
of water and to the altitude, the heated
waves in the summer and the extreme
cold waves in the winter being below
or above IT. The combination of wood
lands and cultivated fields and the abb
sence of low. marshy. grounds have
also the effect of rendering the at
mospheric conditions salubrious, and
are making the place haven for those
who are susceptible to the insidious ef-
fects of dampness in the air.
