Excerpt from The Pennsylvania School Journal, 1880, Vol. 29 The premises of the school, situated at No. 60, Boulevard de la Villette. Were formerly occupied by a manufacturer of aneroid barometers as a factory. The school-rooms have been added in an adjacent block, and additional workshops are at present being erected. Including the central playground, the premises cover four thousand square yards. As in all the municipal schools of Paris, the education is entirely gratuitous. The pupils have not even to pay for their tools, which remain the property of the school, unless, as frequently happens, the pupil himself buys them on leaving. On the other hand, the apprentices are not paid beyond a trifling gratification of a few pence, be stowed fortnightly and always in proportion to the satisfaction given by the pupil's work and conduct, and of which half is always retained in the savings bank of the school. The trades in which direct instruction is thus given are six in number, viz.: carpenter, wood-turner, pat tern-maker, smith, fitter, and metal-turner.

To keep them there is a far greater expense, and the probabilities are far less that they will ever be Christians, than if you give them an education such as the State now affords them. But the system does not allow us to teach religion in any positive way! No. But it allows and even sanctions us to do a great deal that leads to positive religion. If that were all, we could also say that many Sunday-schools teach religion in no positive way. And yet we feel sure that Sunday-schools can be so conducted that they do teach religion. Shall we entirely abandon the great pet of America, be cause it fails in some hands and in some localities, to answer the end for which it was instituted? The remedy is in another direction. What is true of the Sunday-schools is, in this respect, largely true of the public schools. Place them in proper hands, and you will get good results.

Our first end was special, that Pennsylvania might know and duly honor these men for their unselfish devotion to the cause of general education. The second, that their portraits might go upon the walls of school rooms everywhere to aid in encouraging the placing of more pictures, and good ones, in the schools of the State.
