POOR EOONOMY.
EOTTOrt EDrCAZiONAL DETARTMtIit,
What is - the trouble :with our schools? A .
few years since when our children carte
home from school, they talked of the les
sons learned, the rewards of merit won.
the-prizes to be gained, and occasionally
.of the pnniShment inflicted on some little
culprit - for disobeying 'the "rules;, the
passer-by heard no' insulting or dis
respectful speeches; the, neighboring
'farmer's were not left to
,the tender mer
cies of .the lawless school boys. The
teacher, well skilled in the science , of
learning:and also in• the science of gov
eminent, applied with effect each rule in
arithmetic, - as well as that little bat indis
pensable article of persiMsion, so small,
.yet capable of, making such' deep and
lasting ; impressions on the tender pairs, .
as well as the youthful minds, of the
school boys of Aileen or twenty years ago.
• But alas.. the times are changed. Now
w4en'the. boys coniv.f•ho s trie : from( school,
we listen to enthusistic rehearsals of the
adventures of t the day; of the match
gam'es of ball, of the exciting chase of the
\deer; the successful stratagem - 4er eluding
Alimpunishinent of staying in at recess;
for the twenty minutes' tardiness at the
ringing of -the of,. their success in
stumbling through tho, recitations of •un
' learned lessons;• of sticking the teacher
on some puzzling example, or blind and
unreasonable qu/stion: of. the practical
jokes played on. slime school-mate; or of
the ignorninebus4oar'af laughter; the re
suit Of some glorious pla'n for mischief.
Our teacheis are not competent; and
the few who . are exceptions to this rule;
seem not to takel,any interest in the•ad
vain:roma of their scholars; and our chil
dren; instead of making:; the proper ad- .
vancenient their studieS, and• in the
acquiit-ion of.. pleasant 'and easy gentle
manly and lady-like Ways, seem to stum
ble along through their studies -without
acquiring any. thorOugh or practical
knowledge of them; and -the - only steady
advancement perceptible is in .the use of
those uncouth and disagreeable expres
sions and ways, which seem tp-be charae
teristi of this day and age of the world.
We cannot get a good teacher, notwith
standing the supply-of teachers vastly ex
ceetiiilbe demand. They all come with
good certificates, and We Make a selde
tion; occasionally we succeed in hiring a
tea Cher Who has some qualifications for
the position, and henceteaphes the school
in a - manner generally satisfactory; but
more frequently we are cheated in our
choice of a- teacher, and we get one who
has-no natural qUalifications, and but few
artificial ones, and the school proves to
If*? a nuisance and a damage to the cone=
munity. This state of things is growing
"upon ns : what is the „cause of it, and
what...must be the remeVy ? How often
do we hear complaints like the above.
flow often do we listen to the expression
orclisappoinilment from parents who have
not looked of this matter in the proper
flea.. As the result'of a winter's school,
whieh n as supported by hard-eartied tax=
money, their children have hardly receiv
ed bent:tit, equivalent -to the trouble Of
going to.. aril . from the. seho.ol-house.
There is i reason for this trouble. It' is?
self-evident that no school can be successt'
ful n it hout a good teacher; and . .the only
nay tosobtain a good teacher is to offer a
reasonable 'compensation for his services.
We will see the reasonableness of this as
serticui whert we consider :hit a person
who is qualified for teaching school is aISO
qualified for almost any hind oliusinesS;
and the same qualities of mind and char-
aster which make him a succe,ssfuLteach
4vilt secure ri.r. him su'cess in almost,
any . ei-capation in life. The successful
teachcr must,lie well advanced- in the. set-
nee of lem•uiug; he must be able to tell
or pmvey to the. minds of others., that
which is contained in his, own mind; he
mint harts tact, patience and porserer:
f'
ence; lie must be a moral .eharaeter; he,
must be a person of decision and energy;
and lie must exereisLwAa lively interest :in
the sucees of his efforts..,pent is, and
always will lie, rewarded; character "ef
genuine stalli , lity, and principles of ster-
Lily, North are, and always will be, in
good deir.and; and a person' possessing
such qttalilleathms Will never experience
:my seriOus thiliculty ju obtaining etnploy
nlisnt, aial a liberal compensation for his
labor; The idea that a reduction of safa
svottld lesson the quantity and then:by
better the 'iluality of teachers (to use a,
ti:tu..KatiNe expression) is absurd:kin the
extreme, while an opposite course Vt-1.1l

cial Committee' on School Hygiene, _ree
-1 onimends" with respect to ' our public
schools : That 'the lowest' age at which
children shall be admitted be six years;
that the, lehgest daily attendance on the
primary departments' e three hours; that,
some of the merle , / now ekpended on
showy exteriors and assembling rooms be
used to provide ample play groilnds and
large, airy class rooms; and that the
school buildings be so situatod and built
as to.have the greatest amount of riir and_
light in every part.
In this connection the ceinmitte - opre
sent an abstract 'of a law which hag been
read sa) ti. ro of the recant meetings of the
AMer .-I'4 4 ocial Science Association. It
establishes t: u) office of Medical Inspector

of Education i ; to .hold office for a term of
three years; to ket'p. himself .thoroughly
acquainted with the sanitary condition of
the sclipoLs and the hbalth of_ pupils and
teachers; and to Make fuggestiOns and re
ports, conduct correspondence, etc., to
advance the interests of the people whose
'servant he is, . This project has its good
and bad phases.. - As a rule we are oppos
ed to the multiplication of public of as,
and prefer to liave the new work demand - ,
.ed from time to t ime i , by new exigencies
of state distributed_ among the . depart-I

meats already existing. In this instance,
however, it may be„ura - ed that the public
school syst.m in vogue in • this country
has grown to be a matter.df vast import: '
' auce, calling for a nianag,ement and ma
chinery of its-own; _and' that, in order to
ensure - decent care for the health of the'
school children and their' teachers, it is
necessary that sonelOily be held: to a
'stritt accountability fin. their sanitary
surroundings, Admitting this, we do not
see what good can come of 'limiting the
inspector's official term tO three years,.
