'.lilll'0llgll these agencies our comnnmity realizes a fuller return of its property investments and it is hoped the future may show still greater increases in such returns. Why should magnificent property ofthis kind be dark and silent monuments of neglected opportunities, when so little expense will open them as centers of civic and social benefit. The actfual use of the school properties for school purposes is barely over 12M per cent of the time in each year. I ' It is not our province to forecast the future of the South Bend schools, but the present indicates some possibilities near at hand as de- velopments in the city's educational system. The rapid growth in at- tendance in the eighth grade and high school bespeaks a greater appre- ciation of the advantages of education by the masses of our people. lt betokens an abiding interest in the school as a people's helper and makes of the school a civic interest appealing to all classes among our citizenship. The development of the continuation school idea, if followed up. may lead to the establishment of an academy of literature, sciences and applied arts, wherein many of our people may receive collegiate or teach- ers training without going away from their home city while taking this fi ss? 43. gr: TS i73's sq? work. With the extension of the high school, it is not impossible to provide such additional academic and technical work as would enable our people who wish to go to college to receive one or two years credit on college entrance and thereby reduce the time and expense in attending a school more remote from home. The expansion of the city indicates a. time not far distant when the seventh, eighth and ninth grade work will be more largely attended and more advantageously carried on in quarters provided in the different sections of the city, instead of bringing these immature children long distances to the central part of the city. The liberality of our people in the matter of school equipment. furnishing adequate buildings, betokens a time not far distant when the districts will be supplied the necessary working equipment, for which the child will be responsible, whether it be books, tools or any other necessary school furniture. N. , VVhen the educational system of South Bend shall have reached these things, new possibilities forqsocial service and broader vistas for individual help will open for the children and the adult interested in educational matters in South Fiend. e 4? -as NP' f ' , mkfmf t I W-dffiufl X gy? is fvi,awwaf fag XM 'LL f 5 LF uf, f 7 .fl 1-ur '+l7'z'l:i-ual f'j',fl4 iff' f v-:aes J: ' 'twill' 'll , , ,f vr,N, xr-ina!
