German continuation schools aid for youth education in Munich plan
An English observer praises Munich’s compulsory continuation school system in Germany as a model for youth training. He notes Munich keeps youths in full time elementary education until fourteen and, for four more years, places them in continuation schooling with expert instruction while starting practical work. The article cites Linoleum class studies and German thoroughness, contrasting with lower training rates in London and urging expanded continuation schools financed by government grants. It also lists polling division booths for a large regional election, and closes with a brief note on Great Peppermint sales.
