a, the third IL, and lot recently
purchased contains 20 acres.
There is very strong sentiment
all over the country for larger schoo;
grounds" Mr.. Curtis, hnds, land
yards are being augmented in many
cities where there is an opportunity
to purchose adjoining pieces of land
at prices that are not prohib;tive.
Cities are often paying as much as
$4,000 or more per acre for such
lana. TWO years ago the city OF
houston, Tex, secured bond issue
OF 100000 for enlarging the yards
OF several OF the old schools. The
city of Galveston has recently voted
bond issue of 100000 for the
same purpose"

Curtis considers ample school play-

dren need a good-sized school ward
because there is no otner place 70

yard because at home there is moth

game for little children. He points
ouf tat larger school grounds are
demanded, not only for the sake O,
organized play, which has come to
have recognized value in education
but also for school gardening, open

(School Education.)

Henry Curtis, of the United
States Bureau of Education, de,
clares that every school building
should have at least one full block
of ground, whether the block is the
usual city block of two or three acres
or one of ten acres as in Salt Lake,
Utah.
The high school needs at least 10
acres, he asserts. AS for the coun.
try school, it ought never to have
less than acres of play space, and
could profitably make use of 10
acres, provided the grass is kept
moved.
Mr.. Curtis shows that our schools
have, in general, had very inadequate
yards. During the past 10 years,
however, with development of the
play movement, there has come an
Increased demand for ground space

boards of education in Pennsylvania
