Some 1500 such school of week-day religious educa- tion are biintt conducted throughout the country at present, and the move- ment is rapidly growing. In some lo. calities many thousandé of children are receiving systematic religious in- struction in thieway, many of whom are not enrolled in any Sunday school or other religious institution. .In fact this movement is promising to become the outstanding. interdenom- inational ef-operative institution in this country. 000, which is About " per pent of the public school enrollment. The school is closely graded end offers two periods of instruction per week to each pupil, Six fulHime teachers and three part-time teachers are em- ployed. There are 28 churches of ten denominations eo-operuinir. The school at Oak Park and River Forest ' has .also been in operation since 1919. It has enjoyed a steady growth since that time until the pres-, ent when the enrollment is about 8,y ' Schools Elsewhere ._ At Naperville, Ill., the school has been in operation since 1919. Last year about 475 pupils were enrolled which is 93 per cent of the public school enrollment. Of these 25 per cent were mot enrolled in any. Sun- day school. Three part-time teach- ers are being employed in'this school. . The work in Highland Park is still in its first stages, butareater things are in prospect snd the good will and co-operation of parents and citizens is solicited in making this work ef- ficient and successful in every way.
