. Transportatiori a' Difficulty
The discussion after the - addrese
showed that transportation difficulties
in the winter wbuld prove tlie-greatest
Objection, especially in those localities
farthest fora the school. Another oli-
jection voiced was that technical and-
agricintural training could poly. be _ex-
ploratory and not complete, but this
was removed by the fact that these
would be furnished hi. the larger •
centres after the pupil reaChed the
age of sixteen. Very little, opposition',
was raised over -costs, all reaffiT4 that
under existing conditions all are now
paying for a system Which would be
improved if larger areas were served.
One speaker urged caution in entering
the plan without full discuasion, and -
hoped technical training would not
supplant .academic.
