OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS. TO THE EDITOR.
Sir — Being a regular subscriber to your paper, I write to ask you if you can explain to me the workings of our State schools. I made an application to get my two girls in to the Clyde School, and I was told point blank that I could not get it&em, iir.'foivat least "12 months." Now, Sir, I ask you what becomes of the enormous amount of money that is, voted evejy year for education. I maintain," thdt [ our ' city is a disgrace to tUe colony, for the schools are not much better than bams, and half of the juvenile depravity is owing to the slipshod way that the Education Act is carded out in our city. — I am, etc., Joshua Lane! 4, Majoribanks-street, Wellington. 3rd February, 1899.
