1916: WOOD SCHOOL STUDENT SUGGESTS IMPROVEMENTS

This school was located on the site of the Trenton Free Public Library. My father in law, the late Raymond E. Britton, told very interesting stories about his years as a graduate of Wood back in the early 20th century. Education back then was far different from that of today. Emphasis was placed not only on learning "the ABC's, but also the social graces where etiquette, courtesy, self control and appreciation of thing cultural were stressed.
