Prem Ashram school was reopened from eight to ten in the morning. On 22 December, the name of the Hazrat Babajan High School for the Meher Ashram children was changed to the Hazrat Babajan English School, and Baba revised the schedule of the schools. For the boys of Meher Ashram, whose school had begun on the 19th, classes were held from seven to nine in the morning and again from two to four in the afternoon. For the Prem Ashram boys, school was set from nine to noon, including Sundays. New tatta (bamboo matting) sheds, serving as classrooms, were ready for occupancy, and the boys went there at sunset. Baba personally handed out books to each student that day.
