SCHOOL COMMITTEE.
POINTED RESOLUTION. The regular monthly meeting of the Putaruru School Committee was held in the Putaruru school on Mon- i day evening, and several interesting matters were dealt with. Among others, the following resolution was passed unanimously: “That this committee views with concern the tendency of the public to encour-’ age too many children’s entertainments which have the effect of causing physical and nervous strain, thus unfitting them for their school work. Not only does the long preparation beforehand have an exciting and distracting effect, but the reaction leaves the children fatigued in every way. As a consequence the school work is doubly hard for both pupils and teachers.”
