In giving his opinions of what the public sehools in this coiin try chould do, Mayor (Jay nor said "The puMie school should train our hoys and girls to work ; work wi-tJi their haiuls i: s w 41 as the ifl heads. Sehools, especially .in the larger cities all over thus country, are turning out boys and girls who "think they are a little too good to do ordinary work. This is bad for the country. "We are bringing boys and girls out of the common, schools who, unless they can get jobs where they can sit on the high stools or at a typewriter, won't work.
