New school liouses have been built din ing the last two ycare in tho follow- in; districts : I'aeker, Weutherly, Mauth Cltunlc Tdwnshil), Franklin and Lower TowatneiiiiDg. Tlieso are all substantial buildinirs, well lighted and Tcntilatod, and s,il)j)llod with good furniture. Tho architectural beauty of several of them, especially of llio one at Wcathcrly, re flects much credit on tho taste and in telligence of tho directors. Tliciehre, however, btill several dis tricts in which there arc school houses entirely unfit for use, tomc of them tire too small, and others can neither bo eatcd, lighted nor ventilated properly. It is hot generally good economy to pend any money in repairing such buildings, though this has lately been successfully done in a few instances. A new school lirJf.se is greatly needed in the FirefWurd of JIaucli Chunk bor ough. Some of the rooms in tho present building have been uttcily unfit for use for a number of years, 'J'hcy are damp and the means of lighting and vcntila- ing them are so poor that tho health of both teachers mid pupils is cndangcrcdi Two of the rooms arc more objcctional for school purposes lhan any other school trjdnii in the county. It is to bo hoped taut the lax-payers of the town will give proper encouragement to the efforts mi.do by the present Hoard toMdurc' tho means of erecting a new building in the near future. oun rithiAhV scuoots. One of the surest und niobt accurate tests of a proper conception of education and teaching on the part of school oflU core, and of a healthy public sentiment on the part of the people, is thd Cbtimato they place: Upon tho relative importance of primary tcacllini, 113 compared with the work of the grammar school and high school. Thrc3 yea ft ago, when wo entered upon the duties of the office, there was a scnt.tnent throughout tho county, almost un vcrsal, that, whilst great eato should bj exercised by (lircdors to secure the kervices of a scholarly and cflicient prin cipal for the high school, any pbfaoil of Ordinary intelligence: could bo employed to teach from fcO to 120 children "to lead anl write" in the primary school Wnen it wns found necessary to refuse ceitificatcs to these persons, diieetors would sunieliiucs suggest that thev wanted them only for the primary school and that not much scholarship wa3 necessary to tc.uh little children; Jn accordance with this sentiment, the low est i-alaries were paid to tho teachers of printary schools everywhere. 'When va ancics occurred id any of the higher grades, a bcrits of "promotions" took 1 l.tcc by which tho primary teachers of experience were' "promoted" to fill these vacancies, and young gills fresh from the lr.gh school, were appointed to take charge of the primary bchbols. This was thought to be entirely in accordance witli "Ihi eternal fitness of things," and di rectors would sometimes be censured for nit recognizing merit when Such promo tions were not made as teachers and their friends thought proper. try th!s system, teachers who were successful in primary schools would, in soma instances, be "promoted" into grades in which they failed. This system, widely prevalent still throughout the cumly, docs imirtenso harm to hot! ccliools arid teachers, and it is pcrhups one of the burcst evidences of progress in our county that we are rapidly getting rid of it. The most experienced teachers should ;e employed in the highest grades and in the primary school', and should re ceive the highest salaries. 'Wherever inoxpeiicnceil teachers must bo em ployed, they should be placed 111 charge of one of the intcrinodiato grades nt a lower salary than is naiil tho nrlmarv r ( teachef. Then, instead Of promoting teachers from grades in which they have proved successful into grades in which their past experience can bo only of in direct value to them, and where, in con Tho appointment of lniieriencsd i.Talue, ns tbp law and the nsS'Ssnrs' oath AGENTS i wanted for the Uvea of all the frrsldents or the U. 8.

It is bad economy to employ poor tcachcra at low salaries fof tho primary schoolj wJicn high salaries are paid to tho teachers of tho higher grades. Tho best teaching in the high s:hool can usver Undo tho harm that was dono in the primary school. If the fjjndutiou has been poorly laid, there is littlo gained, except in buttrard show, by putting 11 French roof On tho building! We take no littlo pride in being nblo to say that intelligent directors all over tho rjjuuty are beginning to realize this and nro taking steps to institute it reform which has not yet been made' oven iu tl.o schools of many of our largo cities, obh htan scnoous. Thcro arc but few schools in tho coun ty that can, with any propriety, be called high schools, yet u number that aro properly grammar schools bear that milnc in tho community. These schoob, with rare exceptions, have been in tho hands of teachers of thorough culture and training, and liavo dono excellent world To securo better attendance, and to induce pipits to remain u few years longer at school than had been custom ary, wo prepared, a few year's ago with tho assistance of the principals of these schools, a coufsd of study for them, at the completion of which a diploma, or cer tificate was to be awarded. This has had the effect of building up these s.-liools and raisins the standard of scholarship in them. Classes have fin ished tho course this car nt Lchighton, East Maueh Chunk, Weutherly, Audcn- ricd and Tresckorr. Tho high schools at J.chifJhton, East Maueh Chunk and Weathcrly have very promising future. Thb high school it Weathcrly has, within tho last two year3, gained the fir.-it rank in the coun Tile schools of Lansford arc' nho r.inidlv eominir to tho front. The high school at Miiuch Chunk has been Scri ously criliplcil by the consolidation of the grammar schools with it and ronmr: in onij teacher to attempt to do tho work of two. This was a very unwise step on the jiart of the board of directors and was entirely unnecessary. Tito. mere saving of money in school matters, as in private business, is often poor economy, EVEXIXO SCHOOLS. Evening schools were open part of the year in Maueh Chunk and Banks town- ships, and were largely attended. Thoy were in charge of the teaclitiupf the day school;. ritiVATn ecHoolsi Thero are two private summer schools ih the county, whcSj object is tn prepare teachers for tho fmblic schools. The one is located at Weissjlol't, tho other at Ii ew Mahoning. Both have been doin excellent work and deserve a large pal r'nage. 1 lid school at Centre Square is of a high grade, and offers facilities for the study of tile daisies and Mathemut i s sufficient to prepare students for tli siphoninrc: class in College.

Thefts is, pcrhap?, rio part of Our school work in which mire marked pro. grcss has been made; within the last few ycara, than in the careful study and ap plication of more natural and rational methods of teaching by our tcachcry Three years ago, on visiting the schools fof tlio first time we found in very rriany of the schools in the rural districts, and iu many of tho primary cchoolJ in ou towns, antiquated traditional methods of teaching that aro now universally con demned by advanced educator?; We found it necessary not only to explain the new methods to teachers but also to illustrate them in many instances by teaching classes in their presence. At firbt teachers experienced some ojfp3ti- t'.on to the chaiigo from parents whtV failed to see tho possibility of Improving on tho mcthtdsby which they themselves had been taught. This opposition hrs nSarly all passed away, and our teachers are allowed perfect freedom in the mat tcr. Tho influence of our Local lusti tutes mid other educational meetings have had a very wholesome eliect in this re' spect; 13ut methods alone, however good, cari not do the teaching. Wo need skillful teachers behind the methods. Tho "o- cratic Method" is of little account if there is not also a Socrates toask the questions. The teachers of Carbon compare favor. require.

CiroouCj sequence, they may fail, they sdoubl be I ably with the teachers of other coutitlos r;tainel Thcro they nreand the merit rf , Uiiir work be rccognizel by an advance in sahtryi Wo suggested this plan to a number' of orhool boards three years ago. Sever al adopted it at once, and others havo done so within the last two years. The school board at Weathcrly ate paying their prilnaf'y teacher $12 it month more than sonio of the teachers in higher grades. A similar step was taken by the school board at Iansford. The plan has proven so satisfactory that in a few ) cars It will bo adopted, in one form or another, iu all our graded Schools. It has made tho primary schools at Wcalh crly and Lansford tho best in tho county, and lias correspondingly improved tho work done in other primary schools. If there will be no longer uny discrim ination made against primary touchers in the State. Yet in a number of dis tricts salurics tire too low lo command the services of teachers of culture and experience, and in others where 6uc.li teachers nrc found, they leave as soon as better positions aro offered elsewhere, In this way wo lneo fonic of our beet teachers every year. Iu order to retain good teachers where wo havo them and secure them where we have them not, we need higher salaries mid, in a number of districts longer school terms. Here we meet with a difficulty. The rate of tax "for school .purposes" is hnv ited by law to thfrtec'n mills. Iu a num ber of districts this limit has been reach ed and yet the funds are not sufficient either to pay all thoJcaeherBfair salaries or t'i establish a sufficient number cf sliosls. There are two pouiblc solutions of tho' ii point of salary, and if they will 1 6 diffioulty. Fire!, tho law limiting the nwde to fuel that an intelligent ptiWic; rate of tax might Lo replied.
