Good Work of Parochial
Schools A Swiss Idea.
A grand army of 610,000 children sought
admission to the public schools of Greater
New York, on tha opening day last Monday.
Thirty thousand new sittings were pro
vided, yet so great Is the Increase In school
population that fully 75,0u children must
be content with half time. Similar condi
tions prevailed at the opening last year,
but the number of new applicants this year
exceeded the new sittings by 6,000. Thus
the troblem of providing school facilities
yearly becomes more difficult of solution.
Unusual efforts have been made to meet
the expected rush on the opening day.
During the post school year eighty-three
buildings and additions were undertaken.
These structures will provide a total of
104,000 sittings, but only $0,000 new sittings
were ready, leaving 74,000 sittings In the
structure nearlng completion. This num
ber would readily accommodate the over
flow. If all were so. located as to meet the
demand. Many of them necessarily are lit
sections least crowded. It Is calculated,
however, that at least 40,000 children will
be on half time the greater part of the
school year, as the registration on the
opening day will be swelled by late comers
during the month.
Teachers Most Spraro I'p.
School officials of Chicago have declared
against the tt achers w ho are not neat and
tidy. I'pon failure to spruce up they may
be Ultniiss-d from the service. It Is prob
able the district superintendents will be
Instructed to report to the superintendent
the names of ail teachers who are slovenly
dressed.
So fur the matter has not got beyond the
discussion stage, reports the Chronicle, but
the fe.-lmg among the school trustees and
officials Is unanimous In demanding that
the t aciierb shall be examples of neat
ness for the children to follow. The ap
pearance at the board rooms since the
schools opened of an unuxuul number of
women whose drtss were below the
sta Hoard of the average teacher has at
tracted attention.

superintendent's office one afternoon of
the week. During that time one school
official made his observations. The hair
of some seemed to need more pins, the belt
of. one set at an angle of X degrees, the
shirtwaists of several bad an extremely
full effect, two women had trailers on
their skirls, soiled spots disfigured the
Jacket of another and the clothes of others
would bear criticism.
"I think that neatness should be required
of all teachers," said Mrs. W. C. II.
Keough, a member of the board. "A
teacher who Is not neat should not be em
ployed. The teacher should 1 an example
to the children. From my observations I
would say that most of them are tidy. In
a climate of this sort women must dress
more for comfort than for appearances."
"Are the teachers ss a class neat?" was
asked Assistant Superintendent Megan.
"Here's a sample along the counter," he
replied. "You can make your own observa
tions. Perhaps this Is not a representative
sample, however, because I think the most
of them have excellent reputations for
neatness."
"Some are neat and some sre not." com
mented District Superintendent Kirk. "You
must find some who are not up to standard.
I would like to have them all as neat as
possible. It must he acknomledged that
among 4mu women you will And some who
are not tidy "
'The untidy teacher Is the exception,"
said Assistant Superintendent Roberts.
"Some beginners think their position men
ial and do not dress as they should, but
they soon notice that other teachers rare
for appearances and they spruce up."
Miss Klla C. Sullivan Is the only woman
dl itiict superintendent. She maintains that
the women are models of aeatnesa.
Another woman employe of the board
took occasion to make some pertinent re
marks about ths dress of some of the men

Vast ris BaJl.
Another reform arcanf Chicago teachers
outlined by tha Tribune la a knowledge of
baas ball, not tha pms as played by man
aaa bata, but "a re fined eaucaUxe game
adapted to the school room. The knowl
edge must be practical as well as theoreti
cal. Not only are the 4,X feminine teach
ers to be Instructed In the art of pitching,
batting and running bases, but are also
to be cured of that affliction of the hands
known to small boys as "butter fingers."
They are to be taught how not to muff a
boll when It Is thrown to them by a pupil.
The reason that all the teachers are to
be put through a strenuous period of
training In ball playing is that the course
of study In games arranged for the ele
mentary schools by Henry Suder. suer
vlsor of physical culture, has been found
to be more difficult for the teachers than
for the pupils.
A year ago Superintendent SuJer outlined
the course of study In games. When
warm weather set In many of the teachers
took up the book and began the work of
Instructing the pupils in the art of playing
them as prescribed by the Suder rules.
The rules were good enough, but when
It came to practice the teachers found
themselves wanting. Simultaneously with
the discovery of their own deficiencies they
noted that some of the boys who never
gut good marks in geography or arithmetic
underwent a sudden process of mental
awakening when It came to playing ball
and regularly put the teachers out on first
base without ceremony.
To meet the emergency, what Is known
as the "Institute of Games" was organ
ized by Prof. Suder. After a two weeks'
trial the Institute was pronounced by
teachers and principals alike not only an
effective cure for "butter fingers," but for
every other ailment common to amateur
ball players. Teachers and principals say,
also, that this Innovation presents a vital
and Interesting phase of the proper train
lag of the child.
The theory of "directed play" la put Into
practice. The institute puts Into practica
all the bail games and song games con
tained in Prof. 6uders manual. Three aea
sious of the iosxltuta have bcea bald, and
more will be held each week until all the
teachers In the primary gr&tlca have ha
corns expert ball playera Each session ts
held at some cautral school la a district.
ay Ua teachers, uf tha aua-
teen schools In a district. At this one
school the games, songs and roundels are
practiced by the pupils and observed by
the teachers. In this way the teachers
become familiar with the game ns played
by picked pupils under the supervision of
Mr. Suder. After this preliminary work
the teachers take part In practice games,
and later are expected to teach them to
their own classes.
Parochial Schools.
Commenting on the report of the national
education bureuu on parochial schools, the
Boston Transcript says:
These schools constitute at least an Im
portant factor In religious education, for
the sake of which the Catholics contribute
at large personal sacrifices with all the en
thusiasm that numbers and intense convic
tion create. At the same time they do ac
tually produce a saving in taxes Jo town,
county and state, which Is estimated to be
from 120.000.000 , jx.OOO.OOO annually, for
It Is to be remembered that sisters are no
more salaried teachers than are the bishops,
priests and rectors salaried superintendents
and sn.ervisors.
It a I. to U abundantly proved that paro
chial and public schools can co-exist, but
which In the end numerically will be the
larger depends upon the character of emi
gration. Where one town makes gains In
Its parocliul schools another loses. This
present dependence upon the personnel of
ike emigrants Is Independent of any excel
lence In scIumiI Instruction. There are prob
ably as great variations In parochial as In
public schools In this respect. But It is un
deniable that many branches from kinder
garten through the grammar grades are
equally well taught In botn classes of
schools.
Moreover, since the Catholic teachers are
following modern methods In school man
agement they are more and more able to
teach broadly. They now have their own
local school committees and inspector and
what might be called critical teachers, and
their nermal schools fer the training of In
atructurs, wtUi rertlacataa of proficiency, as
recognise In stata aurmal school Thay
are also establishing model or araetlaa
schools. Their teachera I nan m tea are x

City, under the auspices of the Paullst
Fathers, these "sisters' Institutes" have
spread widely.
That there Is likely always to be perma
nent difference of opinion as to the wlhdom
Of sectarian education In day schools Is
true. Yet, when the word religion is used,
all agree as to the importance of truly re
ligious Influence unrestricted by creed In
secular Bcbools, for to a very large number
Of persons "religious" ts a far wider and
nobler term than sectarian. But when the
word religious in used In parochial schools
administration It must be borne In mind
that there it means Roman Catholic re
ligion. No one denies that the million or
more parochial pupils have an undoubted
right to their own faith, taught In their
own way, as liig as their schools are not
supported by public taxation, but too often
there is a lack of appreciation of the real
excellence of their schools, their school
houses and playgrounds. Because paro
chially the Instructors udhere to the dogma
of no separation between religion and edu
cation Is no reason for nonadmlssion of
the great growing excellence of their
tuchlr:g. For all that, separation of
church and state Is the only safe, wise
ground for schools supported by public
taxation. Wherever teaching is earnest
Its influence counts for righteousness If
not for creed.
tload Idea troaa Abroad.
According to a school teacher of Phila
delphia, who has trava led, the Swiss have
something In the way of public education
which she thinks ought to be adopted in
this country. "This," she saya, "Is a het
holiday. Whenever the natural temiiera
ture reaches a certain point In Switzerland,
the schools are dismissed. This Is on ths
theory that after a certain point of suffer
ing has been reached by both teachers and
pupils the one cannot Impart nir the other
absorb tnstructlen that would be of any
value, and so tha time spent tn attempting
ft is wasted. This serves better tn Switzer
land, to be sure, than U would here, be
cause there, owing to tha climate. It Is
only a qnnartnn of tampamtur and only
heat brings dlaooinfurt, while here the
huaildiljt Laa tw be rechoaed with, and
some of the most exhausting days do not
show the highest temperature. This- oould
easily be fixed, however, by taking both
Into account, and It would save much use
less Buffering, while the small boy would
be made happy with holidays"
