OVERCROWDIND OF SCHOOLS.
To the Editor of the Evening Star. SxHj—lg it true that at the Middle District School more than seventy children are crowded into a small room which would be sufficiently filled by thirty ? I have been credibly informed that this is the case, and that, moreover, the whole building is much too small for the number of children taught there, so that the rooms are always uncomfortably hot and c}ose. Under these circumstances we may expect that too large a proportion of the children attending that institution will die of lung and heart diseases contracted there. Something ought really to be done in this matter. Yours, &c., Anxious.
