the committee. E. E. qtl - 53..AN, at Towanda, and
will be forivanle.l by him to the Editor in charge
I'M' the eusultig week?;
Tx AssuNinvo the editorial chair again,
we wonder what the teachers think of the
Elocational column.
- We wonder because we have heard so
little from the teachers in regard to it.
The intention was to have a column in
the newspaper, where all the troubling
- iinestions that harass teachers could be
freely and satisfactorily discussed. Thus
far very few communications have reach
ed us, and very few practical questions
funleSs the mathematical problems can
be considered pradtieal (?) have been ask
ed or answered. .;We have no doubt that
scores of teachers through the county
haye been waiting to see something prac
tical and applicable to their respective
lEEE
The Editors are very obliging, and
would answer any communications sent
tliem With pleasure; . and would take it as
a favor if every :teacher in the county
would send us communications, or ask us
questiohs about whatever. troubles them
most.
• The coluinn,thus far has not been, in
our c,timarion; a 'very great success, be- .
catiNe it does not fulfill the design for
which it was established.
We would like, to see something on the
way to teach composition and dedama
thin in our schools, or questions of like
import. that have troubled every teacher
almo-t at ,4,ine time in ther experience.
Wi• t , 1.-trvetLin the REPORTER of last
k. •:t ni , t ice '01; me of our-best teachers
being, pr,,b,gted by having obtained a
`;tats sti tilicate. It must be a very great
honor to have a State certificate to hang
lip Int;ler a diplorpal from a first-class col
lege. but really we- could -not feel very
iii-oud or it. when we consider the way in
which State certificates, are obtained.
We !dlottlii not eimsider it Wvery great
vi.r to le noticed in that way.
Eurrons : Perhaps„there is no
iitber class of persons in the world who
are favored with so great a quantity of
gisitl advice, as is perpetually lavished
pplin the teachers of the public schools.
ant not :it all disixised to question the
need or all this advice: and J ht?pe that I,
for oue,.-Itave profited somewhat by it in .
Inc day. And I propose. with your leave,
3lesrs.• Editors, to show my gratitude in
the most appropriate way by repaying
the f•tvor in kind: There are others who
hat e, of ought to hitve. something- to do
Leith mfr-schools, who nifty stand as imielt
in need of adviee'as . the teachers.
In that part of this county with Which
I am best acquainted. it is the custom to
bins. ill each schist] 'district, oily teacher
Gar three mainths in the simmer, at ten
or itvelve'daillars a month, .anti another
teacher fair three months in the. winter,
at twenty tat twenty'a•five dollars aamonth
—the teacher boarding around. At that
rate. the whole exlkiise of running one
schaeal is abOtt $l2O ;a year. If a majori
ty,of the teachers in these neip,dtborhoods
are not as well qualified for the important
work which they 'leave to do as they
,should be. the pea,* ought to blame
themselves for it. If. on the •ather - hand,
satiny of them proved to be tol era bly effi
cient as instructors. 'notwithstanding the
small compensation for which they work.
till' 110 Iple (aught tot batik Oat it. stars for
it. I believe, with t o te of the editorsof
the Educational Department o f the HE-
Poi:VEIL that "a want of liberality, it de
sire of getting something without paYing
its equivalent, stands in the way of edu
cational progress in Bradford county
more than any ame thing."
The people of Bradford county are not
por. They could •ttffortl-to employ in
each district one teacher for six months
in the year, and to Pay him or her not
much less than thirty dollars a 1111 h
and board. If that were done. some of
lie•liest of our young teachers could af
faml to expend sonici:tinie and money in a
more thatramgh preparation fair their.
work— a consummation greatly to be
wished. It Wlllllll yt;i-y soon become near
ly inipossitile for ap3i teacher who has not
passed a good examination. and, if he has
had eNperielay. dOes:not bear a fair repu
tatirn as a teacher, for tints a sit nation as•
teacher in the puldit: schOols. And. what
is more. after qualifying themselves for
their wtark. rhev vta.auldlielikely.to follow
the ocetipation of teaching much longer
than thiay do as matters are at present,—
that•ist very much to lie de
sired. There is now a great waste of the
ethicatiainal forcesTof the commmtity. be
cause many of thedit•st teachers, as soon
as they have acquired a little experience,
and have shown that they have a natural
aptitude for time Work of teatliing, are
forthwith promoted into ...antic more luct-a
live, and at the sante time less useful and.,
important. oecupatiam. than teaching.
• The great improvement in the condi
tion of the? country Schools, wffich would
certainly result froni such -an increase in
the salaries of the: teachers. is. I believe,
entirely practicable= fairly within our
rrach. AM' for rity part, Ido not expect
to see any marked progress of the schools
an the rural,districtsi- until something in
this direction has been done.
But at the same: thne, I am aware that
there is one serious difficulty in the way.
A large proportion (if the owners of pro
pertY in the county, have no children of
their own to eduCate. Naturally, , they
are opposed to any considerable inCrease .
of the school tax. and they use their in
fluence: effectually, to preveht it. They
think thjy are already paying enough to
educate the children of others. Ilene,
the school tax is likely to 'remain about
as it is. i -
Must we thetefore, conclude that the
• wheels of cducationalpi - ogress have been
blocked. so far as-the country schools are
? Not at all. In auy school
district in which the parents of the schol
ars. helievo that,, prOper instruction of
their children is a thing to be worked for
and paid for, awl - not mrrely to bc , lan

the appointment, Of an dhl-fashioned
school committee, whyse duty it shall be,
among other thifigg; :to collect, by sub
scription or otherwise. a sufficient sum of
money to supplement the wages paid by
the directors, so that it may be easy for
them to secure the :4:rviees of an - efficient
teacher?
There is a great deal of btleug,th in old
habitb and cubtomb: But all progrebb
consists in the abandonment of time-hon

tiou of better practices in heir stead.

IVlere'iS•the scholai in our rural dis
tricts who hasi not 'an aversion to, and
feels outraged when, the teacher men- .
tions the word. However thororigh the
discipline or histructionjn a school may
be, however, smoothly and harmoniously
the school work may be moving along,
the word, eaapasition, mentioned by the
teacher, will Ouse consternation and dis
approbation to-be manifest on the coun
tenances of those pupils who are expected
to participate in the exercises. The dis
like to this imp ortant branch of- (Anal
lion, is the defective method of teaching
it. Teachers minire pupils to write com
positions, _that are wholly unable. to do
so; and unless a pupil lias had some in
struction and practiCe in composing, there
is nti use in' asking that pupil to write.
It would be no more absurd to ask a pu
pil that has no knowledge of mathemat
ics, to extract . the cube root, as to ask
such a pupil to write a composition with-,
out a series of steps, or a gradual prog
ress.
. It is because it is not presented in an
interesting way . to the scholar, and the
consciousness of his inability to write, on
the part of the pupil, that he shrinks
from this work. The first thing, to be olt
taMed in teaching children how . to com
pose, is to get them interested in the
work, :tint in the second, to convince
them that they can do something Mthat
direction. ,
The wind, cui,lposilion, is to be avoided
by the teacher: call it writing • exorcise.
Seine afteinoon, when the scholars are
tired and uneasy-, tell them you want all
in the school that have slates, =Lean
write,- to. get ready for a miscellaneous
exercise. Let the teacher now write the
names of six or eight familiar subjects on
the black-baud, so that all the scholars
can sae. Tell your scholars to write
something about one of the subjects on
the btxtrd. To have your pupils knOw
what you want of them, give them an ex
ample, or an outline, of what can be
written about some of the subjects, or if
deemed advisable, write one in
. full on
the black-board.' Now have your pupils
decide of which one they will write, and
by a given signal have all
. to begin; and
allow them to write only.five minutes for
the first time. • Tell them you want to see
how many words each can write, and
when the live minutes. are up, haVe each
stop at precisely the same time. Do not
.allow them to write another word after
you tell them to stop. Have each schol
ar count the number of words he has
written, and then tell them how many
'words each has averaged. This - will do
for the first time; have" them erase what
they have written. and then go on with
'your work with the school. No one has
seen what the other hasi written, and the
scholars arc pleased, and will look,upon
it as a means of recreation in the school
room. In a few days repeat the same
thing, but lie careful to haVi': something
to interest each time After having these
exercises several times; you will be pre
pared to take another step. viz : to exam
ine the slates of several of the boldest
scholars, but make no corrections or crit
icisms, but commend if you can. The
nett time look at a few more slates, and
so on until you have examined the work
of all of your scholars. After they have
become accustomed to this. then !you
want to make some gimerai suggestjons.
And then you shOuld make some cor
rection in each. and in a general way tell
them why. ,Now you should begiii to
teach the use of , capitals. periods,
The next ..t,p is to get them •to write
(ni paper. so that co rrections ran Is. made
more readily. (The teacher should fur
nish it if the scholars have none: printing
PaPer is as good as any for this work).
When your scholars have adianced far
enough, have some .thein get up and
read what they have written,- amid so keep
on step by. step mita • all the sicholars in
the school mi compose..yeadily, and they
not think that the tdcher• is requiring
.something of them that.they are not able
to perfiirni—cspeeiplly to write "compo
sitions.-
11y beginning in this .way; the scholars
du not realize that they are composing,.
and you gradually lead thein from one
thing to the (ither, and accomplish an ob
ject in which you would have failed,, had
you required them to write a "roiap . o,l%,
tiom" "
There are many advantage.: in teaching
comp Psitioli to young seholars in this
way. which' ire will mention hereafter.
UNIVERSITY SCHOOL EXAMINATION
At a recent meeting orthe. , , McGill (ol
kge authorities, the question was enter
tained. ••:•liould the tellege undertake
school examinations siinilar to, those
adapted by O,funl anCir'ambridgC: in
England ?'• The decision was -in the
affirmative. To the University of Oxford
mu;:t be accorded the honor of first en
gaging in the system originated about fif
teen years ago with some Oxford gentle
men. who, deplorhng the wretched state
of education in the private schools of
England. conceived the plan of institut
ing examinations of pupils -from these
schools by the Oxford professors, and of
granting to elder boys the title of A. A.,
and to the juniors a certificate if they sat
isfy the examiners: • A Wide scope is
'granted in the selection each pupil may
make of the subjects in which to be pxam
ined. This only is insisted On, that eyery
candidate should be well grounded in
reading. writing, arithmetic, grammar,
history, and geography. There is now
abotit forty centres to which pupils come
to be examined. The number of candi
dates has increased. with marvellous ra
pidity, and the advantages resulting to
parents, teachers, and scholars, seem to
be very generally acknowledged. Parents
have by these examinations a ready means
of testing the teaching power of each
school; they need not now be duPed by
the pretensions of iporant teachers—a
class of men -very numerous before these
examinations were started, but now fast
disappearing. Good teachers arc plea i sed
to have a definite programme upon which
to work, to have impartial and thorough
ly competent men to judge their Work, to
be able to point to success at such exam
inations as proof of their competency.
Pupils have a definite plan of study
chalked out by high authority, something
to work for that is working for.
Emulation is powerfully excited, and
to all but the indolent there is an enviable .
reward in the shape ,of a certificate or
title. The plan of Proc,eeding is this :
Somelarge town is selected as a centre, to
which pupils come once a year from the
private schoolS within a radius - of thirty
or forty miles. The examination is by
printed questions and written answers.
It lasts about a week, aiul is conducted
by a representative from the cniversity.
As we have said, the fullest poSsible liber
ty is gives to caudidUtes as to the sub
jects they may select in which to. be ex
amined_ There is said to -IK; air entire
