The getieral iiidili't>i'enr:e iiiaiiil}-.stotl towards
the scheme of this public institution now in
contemplation in this place, does not arise from
well gl'0llll(l(‘.t.l opposition, but rather from tam.
\Vhile a few individ-
uals have been zealously at. woik in concocting
1'aiice of the whole plan.
measures and consulting each otlicr as to the
most feasible course to be pursued. l"tiui'-litilis
of our population have remained in total dark-
ness as to the purposeand design ofthis school.
Most earnestly 1 hope that an institution of
this kind niay speedily come into opciation, lint
it. will be an iiiipossiliility tintil the community
iit large is matle thoroughly acquainted with
this niattcr--are convinced of the atlvantages
that would be derive'.l, :iiid give tiiilinsitatingly
tlieir assent and co—operation. ‘
This School. once in opemtiou, wotiltl never
cause regret. I’aroiit.s could give their children
an opportunity oi" t'cceiring a niore tiiorougli
and extensive, education at one lialftiio l)l'("xVt_‘.lll
expense, and poverty would exeinpt. none qu:il-
itied lhr admission. M a ny scliools ol'tliis oi-dt-.r
are v~:-ry sticcess-l'ully condo:-t».*d in thetziwiis
east of us, and tlicir patrons have learned to
place in high estimiitioii institutions oflearning
common to all. and yet of such a high standard
of iiierittliat pupils are thnrouglily titted for
active business life and for college. ‘
May the people of ;\’orwalk be tliorouglily
awake on this subject and not. tail to attend a
public meeting, of which due notice will be
g'veu, in relation to a public high School.
