EARLY EDUCATION IN`BRADFCBID NIT.
The report of the litiperintendent of

and growth of the schools ih his distrkct.
From the report of the late Superintetid
cut Keeney, we compile, rather extract
some of the most bite/es - jag facts 'con
nected with the developments of the press
ent school system in Bradford County.
• ",The earliest elementary schools in the.
coniity, as established by the' first white
,settlers, were conducted in the most sim
ple and primitive style. The people lived
iu log houses and the school houses were
;mostly of the same material. All the cost
Of building, an linishing them was raised'
by voluid4y subscription. A large stone
fire-place occupied one end of the room,
and logs were used for fuel to warm • the
: room. Writinglables were fastened to
the sides of the school-room, the scholars
sat on the benches with their faces toward
the writing tables and their backs toward
the center of the room. Tim benches
were made of slabs, with the flat sides up.
The legs were saplings about two inches
in diameter. ',, * 4. -* . A male teacher
received t as icompensatien about twelve
dollars per month, and a female,
, one dol
lar per week and' board." The schooLs;
of course, were supported by the rate bill
system: The branches taught were the
most elementary. Among the text books
were the "English Reader," An.erican
Preceptor, Webster's- tVeller, Daboll's
Arithmetic and Murray's Grammar. The
teacher shalpened a enili for the Ondent
to write with. No blackboard, and the
farthest remove from Uniformity of text
book. In 1788 ore or 1789, Master . Root
taught ie,Athens near the site of the pres
ent school building. At Athens also the
first Academy in the County was built,
1797.
The first scluxil in Canton township
was taught by - Loren Kingsbury in the
winter of 1801-'2. : The first :school in
Granville was taught by 311s$ Delight
Spalding in 1807. -In-the same year a log
school house -" was' built in Smithfield
township, which answered-for school pur- -
posesJ for the whole settreinent, the teach
er receiving his salary in work by those
who patronized him." The LeßaYsville ,
Academy was established in 11230, Towan

Solution--42f ft. equals 507 ins. 507
X34=12108 the number of square inches
in lumber. Lop x equal one of the dimen.
shins of box. As the bottom and top of
box cover the whole area of those sides,
the area of them would be 2x square. As
all the sides overlap the ends, the length
of end would be x-43, and the area would
be xi-12x+30, - of both ends 2x 2, --24x+
72. As the two sides overlap the ends,
and are themselves overlapped by the top
and bOttom, the length and breadth of
one end are respectively x and - x-0, the
area-is
r x=---6x, of both sides 2x 2 -12x.
The sum of the areas of the surfaces, is

Solution—As he makei two cuts in saw
ing 4 foot wood, and five cuts in sawing 8
foot wood, he would make four cuts in
sawing 8 feet of 4. foot wood. Therefore
ho should receive 4 more, (4 of 90) or 2,23

many trees may be planted on it, each
tree to be one rod apart and no nearer the

be I a rod from the fence, the distance from
the corner tree to the tree on ilia other
corner on a lino with the fence is 11 rods.
We set the trees in diagonal rows, slant
ing to such a degree that any four adja

forms an equilateral triangle. Counting
