There has been some enquiry about the regulation requiring pupils who enter the first grade to be present at the opening of the school. The requirement is necessary in justice to the large number who will be present at the beginning of the term. Suppose there are forty-one to enter the first grade, and forty of them are present the first day and the other one does not enter until the third week. When it does enter the 40 will either have to be held back for two weeks, or the one be taught by himself which might require-the employment of an additional teacher, which is out of the question as no funds are available for that purpose. If the 40 are held back for two weeks for the one to catch up it will be equal to the loss of 80 weeks, or two and a half school years for one, just for the accommodation of one pupil whose parents or guardian neglected to send it the first day.

Which would be fairer, to exclude' one pupil thirty weeks or forty for two weeks? Again, Ibut few children should enter school before they are seven years of age. It is a postive Injury to many children to send them to school at six. Many states fix the age limit at seven and eight years before they can enter the public schools. If a child who can enter some grade above the first fails to be present at the opening of the school but cornea in later, the individual child is the only loser. If it could have entered the third, grade at the beginning of the session and the class is so far ad And though the body slumbers here Mrs.
