FEEL IN HIGH SCHOOLS To the Editor
To the Editor I refer to a misread article in the Standard about high school attendance. I wrote to the department but expect days before a reply. The December 1922 effort to advertise the school aimed to secure full attendance. The article has prompted many parents in Berlin East and Berlin West to refrain from sending children to high school. I state I have met many teachers and inspectors over recent days and the matter will be discussed widely.
