"Berlin's eFening school will cer- tainly he continued next season" stated Miss Mary GrisW old, super intcndent of schools, today Miss GrisWold said that the first session fer the season will probably be held about October 1. Regarding the faculty, nothing definite has been ar- ranged, she said, although she ex- pressed the hope that Mrs. Anna N. Young, who has been principal of that school for the past seN eral years will be able 10 act in that capacity for the coming season.
 The school authorities are greatly pleased with the results shown at the end Of last years evening school. l. is hoped that even greater inter est may be shown in il on tho part c. the adult foreign population and 1t is further hoped that employers will impress on their foreign born employes the necessity of learning to speak and write English.
 l.cSN S-oSCll N as lllt li4tot EuNLCS- fui in the history of the evening schools, according to the surerin- tendent. In the adult foreign class 3h started the season and % finish ed a remarkable showing. Three years ago g started with this class and only seven remained to finish out the year. Up 10 last year it seemed 10 be the rule that 3o would start and the number finishing would dWindlc away 10 something like five or six.
 The reason for this situation was explained hy Miss Grisw old. She said that the foreign born pupils get impatient if they do not seem 10 progress rapidly in their study of the English language. The needs of no two foreigners are alike. she said. because they all require different forms of training, in some ways. h. diNidual training Is needed 10 great extent and when these people find that they are being dealt with ss group, they become weary Of their studies and drop out of inc class. However, it would he imnos- sihle for Berlin to have five or six teachers for such class, because the money cannot he secured 10 en- gaze in this practice.
 No matter how good the teach CT may be, there will always he mo- ticed falling off in attendance" stated Miss GrisTold, Many Of the foreign born pupils are young, un- married men and women and after hard days work at the factories they feel the need of some sort of relaxation. For this reason. they will attend sessions Of the evening school for period, then become weary Of the work and drop out. Later they will again have a desire 10 become enrolled in inc class, hut hy that time il will he impossible 10 accommodate them, due 10 the fact that tho class has progressed so far that il would he impossible for them to make up the work required.
 Berlin's record last season was highly commended by the State Americanization director and it is hoped that the coming year may see the school even more successful. Miss Grisvold emphasized the fact that employers must show the for eiEn born men and women the good which can come from such a school,
