KINDERGARTEN WORK
Referring to the withdrawal of Government support of the kindergartens, D.W.E." suggests that a proportionate reduction would have met the case. "Apparently the cost to the State of this important branch of education is only about £5500 per annum. The balance is raised by the people. Surely, say, a 25 per cent, 'cut' would have met the requirements of even present-day economies, but a 100 per cent, cut appears likely to leave New Zealand bereft of one of its most ■valuable means of training its v young citizens. As a university and business man I regard kindergarten as of greater importance in the building up of a mentally virile and self-disciplined race than even the high school and- university." ~ . , .
