JOHNSTON, YOUNG t..lliltIAG E. YOUNG MEN '• 9, 1870. riaranb Imoal ..Bport of Soperilitontleot, FOB ADAMS COUNTY, PA., BY .1. ROWARD WERT, For the &tool-p . .( lr ending June 1. 1870 With the close of my first year's official connection with the schools of the County, I have been endeavoring to review the educational work and progress of the year. Our progress may not be rapid—in fact so slow in some districts, that it is scarcely perceptible. but I believe, we are slowly advancing to a more elevated position. }:DCCATI(iNAI, PlcoGnEss% Sehorrl Builtlii)gc—Tho past few years have indicated a change in the feeling of Directors and Parents in nearly every dis trict on the subject. They are beginning to realize the necessity of substantial, comfortable buildings for the use of their schools. The consequence of this change of sentiment has been, that many of the pens, which disgraced our County, have disappeared within the past five years, and that now many school buildings are found all over-the several districts, that are an ornament, as svell as a benefit. This good work has progressed (hiring the school yf,ar jllst. paf,,td. Ifountjoy deser% es especial notice. hav ing within the space of two years ererted six substantial. and emninothous brick: buildings. This township, with Butler, Huntington, Germany, Cnion and Oxford, can now boast of affording all the children within their limits the opportunity of be ing educated in comfortable, respectable buildings. Menallen still has three build ings unfit for use. but they too will soon disappear, for this township is pre-emi nently blessed with a live, energetic board. The new buildings erected in Menallen are the finest rural school-buildings in the County. Franklin is also doing nobly. The same may be said of I +untpleasant, Tyrone, Cumberland and other Districts. The large building in Gettysburg, erected some years since, having become insuffici ent for the accommodation of the scholars attending, it will become necessary for the Board to make provision fur additional TOOlll. But there is a dark side to the picture. Sonic of ou• school-buildings are unfit for the occupation of human beings for any puii)ohe The worst buildings in the County are in Heatling, ('onowago, and the Borough of Littlestown. There is one building in Conowago, in which a tall teacher could not stand erect [Thi , building has been removed this year and a substantial one occupies its place.] Littlestown, in other respects the most_ progressive and enter prising town in the County, possesses two miserable log buildings inconveniently located. No other portion of the County so much needs a new building as., this Borough. There is not even an attempt at grading their schools. Berwick Borough and the town of Hampton, also both need a building for a graded school. The penny-wise, pound foolish policy of crowding all the children, perhaps seventy or eighty in number, of a thriving town, into one poorlyoonstruet ed. badly furnished room, will always pro duce the same result—a defeat of the true object of our schools. - Through all the dark—the gloomy night. The sgauing, waxing , choul-cause tight. Like Ajax, still our Prayer is, LIGIEIT... Fqrnitiere.—Some old buildings have been eptirely or• partially refurnished and the majority of the new-buildings bate been provided with tolerably comfortable seats, generally of the .box-desk order, manufactured by the work-men, who erect the building. I believe, that in many eases money would in the end be saved, were the Boards to supply their buildings with sonic desk, like that manufactured by Cul. MeFarland. expressly for school Use. large windier of schools, probably- sixty, were furnished last winter with the Pierce Magnetic Globe. Beyond this, there was no material addition'to the appliances of our schools, with the excep tion of Outline Maps obtained for a few schools. In many schools the B. 13. sur face is insufficient and of poor quality. Attenda nee at County Institute.— Amongst the signs of the times indicating our onward, upward course, I would men tion the following:—A greater amount of time was granted our Teachers i for the purpose of attending our County Institute last December, than has been auy previ ous year. Many districts granted the en tire time to those attending, and nearly all the remaining districts gave three days. The Board of York Springs Bor. ough, not only gave the time, but required their teachers to attend, impotdng a fine for every roll-call missed. An example worthy of imitation in other districts. Salaries and Terna.—ln the matter - of BalarY, there has *ll I 'o 4 0 4 1 C 14%!) daring the year. Ifountjoy and Reading have for the first time abolished the odi ous cliothlccicu t which give a townie loss pay than a male, for the same amount of work, and that work, too,often better done, The Salaries have been slightly increased in the schools of Franklin, Freedom and Liberty. The Teachers in Gettysburg were paid this year salaries considerably in advance of those of previous years. There has also been some ineresea in the salaries of the Prhioipals at Berlin, New Oxford and Y4lc, Bering& There was a reduction in Tyrone and Berwick Borough. Very few of our give, energetic, oampetent teachers receive the compensation which they deserve. The drones are dear at #ply The following districts during the year Dave added one month to their previous tam, viz: Butler, Germany, Lathnore, Littlestown and York Springs Borough. The following have added one-half month, viz:: Franklin, Hampton and Liberty. EDUCATIONAL Worm DONIS -BY Tar.

E our school-buildings should stand vacant for a year, rather than have schools con ducted by Teachers who are incompetent. I granted during the year one hundred and fo4y-three Provisional and twelve Professional Certificates. The Committee on Permanent Certificates met in March 1870, acting favorably on three applica tions, and'deferring others to a future meeting. Six certificates of this grade are now held by actual Teachers in the Coun ty. At fifteen out of the twenty-four dis trict examinations, I delivered addresses varying from one-third to one-half hour in length to Got teachers, directors, and patrons pfeeeet. In these, I endeavored to touch, in a plain, practical way, upon the prominent topics connected with our common .school system and its claims upon caeh class. At the other examinations I confined myself to is-1 short talk to the members of the class, in regard to their duties, responsibilities and rights. Six teen of the examinations were well attend ed. 'ln Gettysburg, Straban, York Springs, Menallen, Butler and at other points, the attendance was encouraging, indicating that the people feel an interest in their schools. At some of the points mentioned the average attendance during the day was from seventy-fiVe tea hnndred. The majority of the examinations were attended by all or, the majority of the Directors of the district. I 7.i/w/o/ie.—About one-ball of the school days of the months of October and November were spent in visiting schools. From the termination of our County In stitute, December 10th, to near the end of Mardi, I employed all my time in visiting. During the year M visits were made to 150 schools. Nine schools of the County were not visited, principally on account of snow drifts, which obstructed some of the roads during the latter part of the School-season. We had during the year two ektire failures. I found the majority of the schools in a flourishing condition and was agreeably disappointed in hearing, in the various localities which I visited, but few com plaints. I delivered 158 addresses in the schools visited, in a few of which I was compelled to reprove severely. I was ac companied in these visits by 83 Directors. The schools of Menallen take the ban ner, being superior to any in the County. The Directors of this district have a regu lar system. of monthly visitation by the members of the board. The schools of Butler, Huntington, Latimore, and Hamil ton come next. I met in the schools at various points in addition to Directors one hundred and twenty visitors, patrons and others. Two days after the extensive snow-storm i ef February; I crossed the Green Ridge on horieback into the' Cold Spring rally, visiting a school, at whiCh I have understood no Superintendent has been since about 1860. I found twenty four Teachers in the County, to whom I cannot again grant a Certificate, unless I find a very zealous effort on their part to be something more than mere keepers of schools. Some of them have urgiquhtedly mistaken their profession. But -I take pleasure in saying, that now, when the hardships of the winter are past, taking a retrospective view, I t feel amply repaid for all, by the large number of excellent schools which I found, conducted by true, noble men and women—live teachers in every sense. Of one hundred and fifty rooms visited, I was pleased to find Berlin ty-five decorated to a greater or less extent with mottoes, wreaths and other orna ments, which gave the room a limns ap pearance. _ Many of these rooms were ornamented with ranch taste. It appear ed to me, that I could invariably mil the effects in the 'Oleo!.

Norma SellooL—l taught five weeks during the autum of 1889, with au atten dance of thirty-five. March 28th, 1870, I opened a school for teachers, which is still in session, more than fifty ptipils having been in attendance. It has been a decided . success. I have been extremely guitifled with the desire evinced by my pupils to be true teachers. I have been assisted by Messrs. Finkbiner and Hemperly of the Theological Seminary at this place. We have classes in the common school branches, Universal History, Physical Ge ography, Phonography, Latin, Greek, Natural Philosophy and Algebra, with small classes in other branches. I have taught during the year sixty-seven days. I have given the pupils of the institution a number of "practical talks" on the snb- ject of Teaching, much of them being compiled from my memoranda oflast win ter's visitations. There are schools of a somewhat similar natute at East Berlin and Fairfield, both conducted by compel tent teachers. District Insittttes.—lnstitutes were held with success in a number of districts du ring the school term. I had the pleasure of meeting once or oftener with those of Gettysburg, Franklin and Butler. The Butler Institute was one of the best con ducted that I ever attended. Prof. P. D. W. Mulkey assisted at several of their meetings. OTICER EDUCATIONAL AGENCIES I have already alluded to these, to some extent, in speaking of my own operations. I will briefly mention a few outside of the common-school work : Higher Institutions.—Penntsyr a College and Stevens Hall connected with it, and the Lutheran Theological Seminary, both Institutions equal to any of the class in the State, are exerting a constant and wide. felt influence for good upon the ednoation. al interests of our County. Mrs. Eyster's Female Academy is also in a very flourishing condition has been established the present year near Bendersville under favorable auspices. SokKers Orphans' National Sehool.—l had the opportunity a few days since, through the kindness of J. C. Burns, of visiting the institution. I found one hun hundred and twenty-eight children from the loyal states under the tuition of Prof. Hilton and his ar.romplished lady. The half-day passed In the schoolroom w.ls one of great pleasure to me. All the recita tions and exercises of the school were highly creditable both to teachers and pupils. The institution has never receiv ed one cent from either the State or Na tional government, being supported by voluntary contributions, prificipally from Sabbath Schools. It deserves the hearty support of all friends of the Soldiers' Or phans. ProfessionaLlfen,—Our lainisters do not appear, as a rale, to give that attention to qur Colon:mu-School _cause, which It de mands. I haye found through the Coun ty a greater number of Physicians, who were active 'school-men, than of any other professional class. WLNDRANCEIS TO OUR PROGRESS. The most prominent may be briefly summed. Incompetent directors; insuffi cient terms and salaries; as a natural se quence of the latterAcqne of our best teach ers driven from the profession and their places supplied by those, who are poorly qualified: the foundation of all, want of interest on the part of the pecple—those directly interested, tax-payers and patrons. Hence it arises, that sometimes men, who are entirely incompetent, are placed on the ticket.for directors, because they want some petty office-township office, that Will confer a little brief authority. When nominated they ace elected by the domi hkilt party. because they are on the ticket. IN MF.31011.1A31 Wo have this year by death lest two noble teachers: Miss Lizzie Griest of Lat imore and Samuel Winrott of Littlestown. The latter was the oldest teacher in the County, a true, noble teacher and a Christian, '.None knew film bat to love him, None named him, but to praise." He was aged 61 years, and had taugh for 37 consecutive years. lUWMALSui= I entered upon the duties of my office one year ago, without any adequate con ception of the labor and responsibility im posed.

TV* EtiWin Twrite.—Chang and Eng visited Europe in February last under all engagement - to exhibit themselves as a ca riosity; They remained abroad about six months, returning to this country in the Cunard steamer which arrived here on the 18th of August. While on the way over, as they were seated at a table engaged in a game of chess with the captain of the ship, Chang was struck with paralysis_ of the right side. He became utterly help less, aad was obliged to keep in bed for the remainder of the voyage. Of course Eng, though not at all afflicted in his own person by the unhappy visitation which afflicted his brother, was obliged to keep the latter company and also *confine him. self to his berth. Since their return to North Carolina Chang *has gained steadily in genera health, but his right leg continues useless. This, however, does notjrevent the twins from going about and attending to their ordinary avocations. Those who have seen this curious pair will recollect that Eng stands on the right or off side, and Chang on left, and that the inside arm of each is usually thrown around the other's back or neck. In their present condi tion, the way they manage to move from place to place is this: Chang ties up his right or inside leg in a sling, and with the support given him by a crutch under the left shoulder, and the aid of his brother's arm, finds no difficulty in making his was around the plantation as easy as over, The most singular thing about this ex traordinary case Is the fact that durin t 4 the whole of Chang's severe and dangerous illness En,g.has been in unusually good health and spirits, not excepting the time during which he was copflned to hiv brother's sick bed. He has no wish to be disunited from Chang, even if he could be convinced that the operation would 1w free from inconvenience or danger, and a son recently remarked to a friend that h, did not believe that his fahter would e% consent to a seperation should Chang di.• first.—?V.

Their county is large and new; its popula tion thin and scattered, and it was utterly impossible that they should consult and agree on another candidate.
