Bvorr leaelir-r in thU county
should rend Pago's Theory and Prac
tice of Teaching nnd Halo's LiglitB of
two Centuries this tear. These aro
tte book! to be used by tho Stato
Taaehers' Reading Circle.
The reading eirolo work will form
part of the program for every teach
era' meeting during tho sehool year.
Wherever sovoral tcaohera are so
located that they can meet regularly
once or (wise during each month it is
advisable for thorn to organito a local
reading cirole.
Let "Tho Teachers' Blackstono" bo
o thoroughly ntudiAd this year that
il will become a part of oycry Uacher.
The summer vacation is nearly past
Let ui oemmenco to plan for our fall
work in the schoolroom,
Some of our teacher who havo
been attending a summer school havo
returned reoently. No one can bo
too well prepared for school work.
When one beonmes iotercsted in
teaching, it is difficult to give up tho
work and engago in somo other occu
pation, tieveral of our expailenced tcaoh
ers, who thought they would not
teaob this year, have changed their
Binds, and are preparing for another
year of usefulness in the schoolroom,
The boys and girls are commenc
ing to feel anxious for tho fall term
to open.
Some parents are plinning to havo
their children attend school overy
day next term.
Let us try to got value received for
the money exponded for school pur
posed this year by having our chil
dren attend school regularly.
Every thing connected with the
sohool-houso and grounds Bliould be
in readiness Tor tho teachor and pu
pils. Parents, remomber that tho public
school is yours. Why not mako good
use of your own property ?
8ohool officers;
Are there any panes of glass
wanted for the school-house windows?
An the corners of tho school-room
filled with cobwebs ?
Are the desks and walls covered
with dust ?
Has tho floor been scrubbed this
summer ?
Does tho stove pipe need cleaning?
Would it not bo a good plan to
have tho stovo blaokcncd ?
Havo tht windows boon washed
sinco tho school-house was built ?
Does the blackboard nocu repair
ing?
Is thero any obscono languaeo
writton on tho desks, wall",
woodwork, anywhdro on tho insido of
the houso, on tho outsido of tho
houso, or on tho insido or tho outside
of the outbuildings ?
Have the tall sunflowers boon re
moved from near the sides of the
house ?
Is the school ground covered with
sandburrs ?
Oan tho door be latohed ?
Have tho outhouses bcon scrub
bed?
Is there a box of crayon on the
teaoher'a dosk ?
Are the brooms, watcrpail, tinuup,
wash basin, coil shovel, and coal
scuttle in good condition and prosont?
Do you noed any blackboard, eras
ers, and pointers ?
Havo you sufficient books, slates,
etc., so as to give tho teacher and pu
pils a chance to commence work on
the first day of school ?
Remember that tlm schoolroom in
the placo whero the teacher and your
children are to livo many days and
weeks this jeat. This dwelling placo
of the children cannot bo nmdo to
pleasant loriuom. j.no men, "any
thing will do tor ihe schoolroom"
might do for a Hottentot. "Nothing
is too good for tho sohoolroora"
should bo tho sentiment of overy en
lightened American oitiron.
It should bi the rulo in every tits-
triot to have tho schoolroom awept or
scruDDCQ auer overy puuno nieoung,
It is not tho teacher's business to
act as janitor for every public, or
lodpe meeting in a sohoolnouse.
. "Neither the board nor district hatt
any right to nllow tho sohool-houso to
be used in suoh a way as to interfere
with the school."
On tho morning after niaxy a pub
lic uiutiiK in a sohool-houso tho
schoolroom is too filthy a place in
whieh to raiBO pigs, much less to
teach ehUdrcn.
When tho sohool-roem is found to
be in such'.conditiou the teacher and
children should return to their homes
snd refuse to ocoupy it till it is
cleaned by proper persons.
