CITY SCHOOLS
OPEN TOMORROW
ENROLMENT WftL REACH BE.
TWEEN 1900 AND 1,40o AND
ALL GRADES PRACTICAL
LY PROVIDED FOR

Under exceptionally successful au
,pices the fall term OF the city schools
II Brunswick will begin tomorrow at
ID O'Clock with a record enrolment
in the various classes.
1t is estimated by Superintendent
Dryden, that the enrolment of tn>
combined schools in the city will ag
.sregate between 1900 and l,40O pu-
pills and every arrangement has been
made for their proper assignment;
The principals of the schools have
met with Supt. Dryden and members
of the board, and all preliminaries
have been arranged looking to the
opening of the schools With two or
three exceptions the teachers of the
various classes will be present when
the pupils assemble to begin active
duties for the term. These vacancie
however. will be filled in time to pre-
vent any delays in the opening ofthe
grades which are not supplied.
In answer to a number of COM
PLANTS which had reached him thru
correspondence and over the teie
phone from several parents of pupils
of certain schools that the conduc;
of some of the big boys" of the
school had been intolerable during
the last term, in that the younger
boys were subjected to indignitles
Superintendent Dryden last nigh;
made the following statement:
''The Board of Education expects
every boy, and girl in Brunswick. s.x1,r
are of school age, to report at the
various schools on Monday morning

lege over any other, because of class
standing or grade or residential! sec

in their inherent rights, and any pu-
pill or group of pupils Who mistreat
any other pupil because he is entering
school for the first time will be most
severely dealt with.

PARENTS OPPOSE
PRESENT PLAT
STRONG PRESSURE BE BROUGHT
TO CHANGE TWO-SESSioN
SCHOOL PLANS.

AS evidence of the strenuous op-
position to the two-session school day
which mas been adopted by the Coun-
ty Board of Education, for the en-
suing term, the petition of the oppo-
nents to this plan, which has been
left at Andrews drug store is being
the city schools in large numbers.
Sentiment in favor of the move
ment to petition the board for
change to the one-session plan is
rapidly chrystallizing and the parents
Of the pupils and the Parent-Teacher
Association say that they will Present
the board of education with peti-
ton that will contain the names Of
practically -tenths of the patrons
of the schools attached.
Yesterday The News received the
following note from Judge Edwin
Dart. which throws different pAqze
on the matter in controversy:
Editor Bruins swicle&&&Ws
Dear Sir. = = ''-'F'SFsz
sit has been brought to- my attsn-
ton today that during thee'a't ses-
sion of the schools that petition
was circulated among the pupils anG
teachers which in substance prptssted
against two sessions of the SCHOOLS
and that the Board of Education
promised both pupils and te4cLers
that they wosld have one session OF
the schools this fail.
1t has also been stated that. the
Board promised the ParertTa 3chers
association that they would have one
session of the schools
Nov if | am not cOrrnr. in these
assertions | would be glad tc have
the Board correct me; II am correct
how can the Board arbitrarily adopt
two sessions of the schools after thav-
ing this matter thoroughly discussed
last year and making these promises
The Board already knows that most
of the parents don't awani two ses-
sions and it seems unnecessary to
again agitate the question that is
unless the wishes of the people cat
no figure with the Board and this
cannot believe true"
'Very truly,
EDWIN W. DART"
