To the Editor of The News,—In the interests of the young people at- tending the High 'School, may I ad- dress a word to your readers. In some high school towns no amusement ;places used to be allowed open during the school year in order not to interfere with studies. Nowa- days, the schools seem to be on the lookout for all kinds of distractions— school will be closed for Fair Day, then for Sports' Day, then for County Sports Day, then a little later for CHURCH CARD.
