The Continuation Schools

To main the public schools at a
time when expansion Is crying
need seems the sheerest folly. Yet
that is what the Fearon-H n-Hutchinson
bill. in calling for the repeal of the
part-time continuation law, aims
q do.
The continuation school provides
for the continued education Of young
people between the ages Of fourteen
and eighteen who have been obliged
to leave school to go to work. 1t has
justified its existence. 1t reaches
boys and girls whose education would
otherwise be cut short. 1t meets the
special necessities Of the irregular
student not met by evening schools.
Not less than four hours week
must be spent In the continuation
school if the pupil is employed regu-
larly. If temporarily out OF employ
,nent he must attend the school every
day Of the school week. The in
structioQ is practically individual,

On Monday evening "Thc Polish
Jew" was given at the Metropolitan

AS an economy measure the

abolishing the continuation schools.

When the committee in charge has
