L. T. NICOLA
Our educational work is generally prosperous. With possibly one or two exceptions, our schools have a larger attendance this year than last. The Keene Industrial School is much crowded for room; but a building is in process of erection there, which will, when completed, furnish all the room desired. GCB January 1, 1896, page 645.8
The question of connecting industries with our schools, has received considerable attention, and at the present time most of our educational institutions are doing something in this line. As a result, quite a number of students enjoy the privilege of attending school, who could not do so if work were not furnished them in this way, by which to help pay their expenses. The importance of this question will demand further study and careful planning for the future. GCB January 1, 1896, page 646.1
