that particular context.

MR. ENEY: The explanation, if I may inter-

3

rupt, Dr. Paquin, is that' that was a recent amendment

4

and they didn't know where else to put it.

5

DR. PAQUIN: I see. All I am saying is that

6

to my observation it seems to be out of context now.

V

MR. ENEY: It certainly is.

8

DR. PAQUIN: But I suggest we take another

g

look and find some other place for it, if it is impor-

10

tant that it be included. I had raised the question of

11

what do we mean by thorough end efficient, and Dr. Pullen

12

touched on that. when it is suggested here that we have

13

a thorough and efficient system of free public schools.

14

And I gather, wat you are saying, Tom, is this, that

15

by that we are saying that this State shall provide free

16

public education for all children, all the children, of

17

all the people?

18

DR. PULLEN: That's right.

19

DR. PAQUIN: Then, for heaven's sake, lot's

20

say it that way and not say it by words which may mean

21

different things to different people.
