MirrLMTOwx, Juniata Co., Pa.,
June 6, 18B2. J
Ho. E. E. lhgocr, Superintendent of
Public Instinct ion:
DzabSib: Incompliance with the re
quirements of law, I submit the follow ing
report of the schools of Juniata county,
The report embraces statistic for the. year
ending June, 1282, and suggestions and re
marks covering ISSI and 1882.
We have unmistakable evidence of prog.
res in school wrk in the better attendance
at school, tendency to increase the length
of the school term in a number of districts,
building tirst-clus houses and furnishing
them with mrnc but themost improved fur
niture and raising the salary of teachers
generally wer the county. The number of
children of school age not attending school
Is growing less, and directors and parents
visit the teacher and pupils more frequent
ly than before. Better care is takan in the
choice ef text books and the sulection el
school Ktos and the health, comfort and
happiness of the child are made matters f
first Importance.
Directors are leamicg that there ie o
conmcy in repairing old buildings that
have lew ceilings and aro not adapted to
purpose in ante or plan. Good houses hew
ver,uitablc in viz or plan should not be
.'lowed to moulder wt spoil. Iu this case
there eeonotcyic patching painting and
white-washing. -Before the session begins
every house should -fee thoroughly xatuin
, end detective floors and Hues, warred
walls and damaged windows and shatters
repaired. Krery-one will see the wisdom
iu this. Quito a number of house were
thoroughly renovated and made almost
goed as new. .1 em mention Union and
Oakland, in Fayette, which were both re
painted, paierod and reseated with that d
egant dcfc the TriuotjU Lock folJkg.
'sCorclatuus was also papered. So was
PertBoysl in'Tnrbett. Mexico in Walker,
Xdeoand Prosperity in S ua jnehanna, Fort
Koya! in Turkey, and .Red Bank in Milford,
were ail reseated with the best desk in the
market. Eight new be uses were erectol.
The framo in Fermanagh is 40 feet by 30,
with a ceiling 12 feet Jiigb, and contains
tbe'Lock-folcing desk. The room is wain--eote4riias
plenty of good black-board sur
face, so platform nor -vestibule to annay
the ttasher and, all considered, is a beauti
ful, coau-ion-Bcnse bulking, and those . in
tending to build w ill do well by going and
exaiuiuiag it. Superior frame houses were
adso erected in Tuscarera, Susquehanna,
Monroe, Greenwood -and Spruce Hill.
These J.-i-s w ere all .built by contract and
at a moderate cost, and for good workman
ship reflect great credit upon the contract
ors lrecbrkk houses sre erected, one
in Walker,-4S feet by JJ.cna in Delaware,
-3C fret bj 23, and another, in Milford of the
aame size. These are fine structures and
in location, ciunot be excelled if they can
be eiuald.ii: the county ;. r.o comment is
.necessary. he one in Walitcr was built to
-aasxer for-a graded school when necessary
.or engage an essistant for part of the term,
and it nierta Cose wants quite well. We
&v now all brick hoases . in Walker but
ono, iid,i,E4 awaro all but Wo. In none
of the eight utv house, lit w ever, was
there any provision made for ventilation,
And the air is te be kept pure fir the forty
to ninety chikirtn that attend -the several
oLools, by tiio svery imperfeet means of
transoms aud shifting wiudovj. With
eucfc limited. iues,JS for keeping tie air pure
the skillful teaajer may, and -sometimes
doeft, regulate the condition of Ike atmos-pi-erejCouiparalivuiy
well ; but in a large
ntnifcor of roouis-liind the air enticely un
fit ior.c&ildren to bceathe. Some -are tilled
wfli jrca, which is, to a great extent, the
fault -of the toacter. Some rooms are filled
with sieske arising torn defective flt-es or
pi 14. Where a teacher is in earnest, has
tact, ami ia not too laty, such short-comings
do not lutg continue, (or he will like man
of business, correct the evil liiinseaf or
promptly iuorm his Dcarest director, of the
matter. Ike teacher is supposed to kcow

complaining trin tell it te every body luit
hira- "The oi" it is said, "knoweth hi
master's crib,' and if io. is not possessed
of less knowledge than the ox he will know
where to go and e?Aa to Bake known his
wants. It is no unusual thing to find a
school room freezing cold on a cold day
the whole of the morning seasioo. In some
the fire is not made right or 4n guod time.
Sometimes the stove is at fault, the pipe or
the flue. In all these instance parties
ougfct to mutually iuforia each otier and J
am" assured a great deal of information
wool be the result. A. very inferior qual
ity o( 'iel is sometime furnished. In on
casJ I tare noticed that the wood Air the
entire brrra of Are months was supplied for
the low tuui of two dollar and ninety
cents. Tic wood was of aspliugs, green
nnd wet. 3y putting it into the dma of
th store mi first cooking and then frying
it, it would turn, and in one case, while
drying was going on at night tb 19th
of Jannarv, 181, tb house at Straight

Several house have been burned in this
jaunty in the .a way. Director .honld

warly all of tt boo!f th. book, tre ual-
form and so in the several districts but that
is hot the case over th. county. The fash
ion of changing then every three years,
like that of ladies' hats every season, still
continues. This U ridiculous, to say th.
least, for good teacher can teach arithme
tic, reading or apeUmg front any of th.
good series now in use, and to be changing
from time time and putting expense npon
parents that are in many cases poorly cir
cumstanced to bear it, Is useless and wrong
and the practice onght to be discontinued.
The strong arm of the law must step in
and do th. work.
In teaching practice and theory, w. arc
making fair progress. Our leading object
of the examination is to indue, study be
yond the text hook. A teacher should ac
quire a knowledge of tvtrylhiug that per
tains to his profession as rapidly as time
and means wiM permit. He should (tody to
to enlarge his education for th. pleasure of
knowing and the purpose of instilling a
similar desire in the pupil. This is true
teaching. The itinerant character of the
profession still remains. About one-third
of our teachers leave us annually. Their
places are filled from the recruiting list.
As a rcle, though there ore excrptiona,
young teacher cannot teach as wall as one
of experience. A loss is sustained when
ever we lose an experienced teacher, but a
man has the right to go where he can make
the most money. But mere money seeking
teachers are of littl. account in th. school
room. In everything skill has its reward
and this will be the lever that must elevate
the teacher's profession. Teachers can and
sust qualify tbemselvts for their work,
that society will look upon experience as a
necessity the same as it does in the legal or
medical profession. Th. demand for
learning and talent in these professions is
unprecedented and men do not hesitate to
reach down deep into the pocket to reward
services. It is a true principle that the law
of supply and demand regulates alike trade
and professions. Have we a fair demand
for good teachers, and if so, bar. w. th.
sapplT 1 We answer negatively. Some
answar, raise tb. salary and we will get you
the teacher yon with. Another will aay
give us the teacher of ability and he wiH
command the salary. We must go to the
men that employ the teacher and pay him
for bis werk, the director and the tax-payer,
the power behind the throne. Be will tell
you that if the salary was raised U the
amount desired we would have the sa.na
teachers we have now, for if the reports of
Superintendents are correct, the .am. stat.
of things exists every where. To say, that
fer want of proper renumeralion the good
teaohers have all left the county, is but a
common croaking in every county of the
Slate. Where are th teachere we so snuch
desire to have T They are allowed to leave
the profession. Why? Because teacher
fail to demonstrate clearly to those whese
servants they are that there is difference in
a skilled and unskilled teaching aa there is
in every other trade, calling or profession.
Our State Normal Schools hsve failed even
to convinre the people of this fact- To be
an adept in the subject will not suffice if
one is but a novice in the art. There is a
difference between knowing a subject and
knowing how to teach it. Some of our best
scholars taught ns th. poorest schools.
How few teachers read journals and works
devoted entirely to their profession ! How
ditll-rent is the private room of th minister
the doctor or the lawyer, and even the Jew-
Ueler, the dry goods merchant or the manu-
iacturar. These all read everything that
Urns any bearing npon their respective call
ings. The reason is Try obvious and
teachers must acquaint themselves and car
ry out in their profession the laws, princi
ples, snd processes that underlie the rt of
teaching. Men will always pay cheerfully
wfcen they aro satisfied that they are get
ting the worth of their money.
la my visitations I spend as much time
aa possible in schools taught by young
teaohers, aud give advice aad make sug
gestions after inquiring into their classifi
cation and programme. I also held a writ
ten examination in every school, and the
resui! proved highly satisfactory to me and
about. one hundred directors and over three
hundred citizens. Easy exercises in com
position were given to ascertain legibility,
spelling, the nse of capitals, the period on
ly and frammer. In arithmetic questions
covering the fundamental rules and as far
as interest so constructed as to conform to
the ordinary affairs of life. The pupils
soon saw lat there was much for them to
think abut t and that an easy thing is hard
when yoi -dou't know how." "Boys
should be taught what they will need when
tbuy are Ken." A little more "practical
ness" in our text books and in our teach
ers a great deal, seems to be necessary
Words that pupils will never use in their
life and that aro difficult in orthography
they are taugltt.to spell, and words that are
used every day they are apt to miss, not
enough time and attention aro givea to the
meaning and liking of words. Teaching is
very superficial in our day when it allows
a child to pass over any word or sentence
or problem that the pupil does not clearly
understand.
In conclusion J cannot in sufficiently
strong language express my gratitude for
.kindnoss received at the hands of the De
partment. I return my thanks to directors,
teachers snd all true frieuds of education
fur their cordial support, their forbear
ance and co operation. Let us hops
that fewer errors will be committed
and better results reached in the
future. We cannot but grow wiser and
batter by experience.

Do it with an honest will.

blossoms as you can pile m ; shake
it occasionally and in a few days it
will be fit for use. Dose From a
tablespoonful to a quarter of a gill
once or twice a day, say morniog and

At Honeybrook, Chester county.
the other day, a stranger was fined
$2.85 for swearing. A good deal of
revenue might be raised in this town,
if the law against swearing were en
forced. The justices, and constable,
would get many a fee, that they miss
by neglecting the profane public
swearer. If an honest man have the
least bit of property that is taxable,
the officers go to great trouble to se
cure the stipend. But the man with
a vulgar and profane tongue, is allow
ed to walk about issuing his profan
ity, wherever he pleases without pay
ing what the law requires of him.
Collect what is due the State from
tbe proiane swearer, it will be a
source of profit to the State and do
the swearer good.

EaFLOTaixr roa ladiis The Qnuca
City Suspender Company, of Cincinnati,
are now manufacturing and introducing
their new Stocking Supporters for Ladies
and children, and their unequal Skirt Sua-
penders for Ladies. None should be with
out mem; our leading physicians recom
mend them, and are loud in their praise.
These goods are manufactured by ladies
who have made tbe wants of ladies and
children a study, and they ask us to refer
tbtm to some reliable ao4 energetic lady
to introduce them in this country, aud we
certainly think that an earnest solicitation
in every household would meet with a
ready response, and that a determined wo.
man could make a handsome salarv and
have th. exclusive agency for this county.
We advise some lady who ia in need of em
ployment to send to the Company ber name
ana aaaress, and mention this paper. Ad
