For the most part, I am sure, they receive it, and particu- larly have they done so from this School Committee. It has seemed to me that in its enactment of policy, the Committee has been mainly influenced by answers to one constantly re- curring question: "In consideration of our financial ability and in justice to all who are affected, how will the adoption of this policy affect the total growth and development of boys and girls?" An educational program which is continually evaluated in that spirit can move in no direction except forward.
Respectfully submitted,
HARRY S. MERSON,
