wasted in getting started, but i'm
mediately after the opening exercis-

not long, each teacher and pupil
went to their rooms and proceeded
according to schedule. Many par
ents were present on the opening
day. Some with beginners, others
with pupils to enter for the first
time.

of the parents will cooperate to the
extent that they will spare the chill
