EVENING HERALD
WEUNKSDAY, FEBRUAIIY 12, 1800.
Shoving tlie Queer.
Yesterday afternoon n Hungarian walked
into tho post otlico and asked Postmaster
Mcllct to chango a ten dollar bill for liiin.
Mr. Mcllct took and scanned tho liill
proffered and, in a deliberate and soverotone,
with a sharp look over his spectacles at tho
man, demanded, "What do yu mean by
trying to pass upon tho government a $10
Confederate hill J" Such was its character.
The Hungarian stammered something in
broken English about not knowing that tho
bill was no good and hurried out of the office
as quick as his legs could carry him. Mr.
Mcllct retained tho bill, and still has it. Two
or thrco friends of tho man havo since called
upon tho postmaster and assured him that
the character of tho hill was not known
when it was offered. Tiieir solicitation in
tho case was duo to a fear that steps might be
taken towards a prosecution. While in this
caso tho ono who proffered tho bill may have
been perfectly innocent and probably a
victim of somo imposition, it is nevertheless
a fact that many people in tho foreign classes,
and somo of them by no means of no im
portance, aroinclincd to "plunge" in Irregular
tenders and somo who get their hands on a
stock of such tenders Mud a market for them.
Ono very prominent foreigner had tho audac
ity fo boldly ask ono of our leading citizens
not long ago whero ho could buy somo
"eounterfix" money. Of course, tho design
ing class depend upon tho plea of ignorance
of tbo customs and languago of the country,
but'somo day ono of them will get in such a
position ho will learn that ignorance of tho
law is not a plea that will pass fire. It is at
tboKamo timo no doubt very true that much
of th'o 'Confederate money' in tho hands of
tho foreign classes in town (and thcro Is con
siderable) has been obtained through bona
lido ignorance

A HEW SCHOOL BUILDING.
Committee of the School Hoard ltccoin.
liirnd the Krecflon nf Otic
The Hullding and liepalrs and Financo
Committees of tho School Hoard held a joint
session lut night to consider the question as
to whether another school hullding ihould
he orectcd.
Superintendent Whltakcr was present and
made a very exhaustive report and address
upon the present condition of tho schools ns
bearing upon the capacity and attendance
and tlic outlook for the future. He showed
that by careful computation tho increased
attendance under tho compulsory education
law will be from COO to 700. As tho schools
are nuw crowded moro room will certainly bo
required during tho ensuing year. Several
members also spoke and It was eventually
resolved that a report ho submitted to tho
School Hoard recommending that a building
be erected on tho White street property
recently purchased from Charles E. Tittuan.
N'o rceomruendattou was decided upon as to
the si.o or design of tho building, nor ns to
tho cost.
In talking upon the subject to-dny 'with a
Hl.n.W.D reporter, Mr. T. R. Edwards, who
Is a member of both committees, said : "I
think it is absolutely essential thatnur'School
Board should orect another school building
which will accommodate at leastSOO children.
The Compulsory Education bill,- which
should be enforced for tho good of tho child,
as well as tho nation, will certainly increaso
our attendance and at present woaro crowded
and paying rent forono building. There isnot
another town in tho county which has such a
foreign population as wo have, and many df
them cling to their own customs and cannot
speak the English language. I do not think
tho problem of educating these children has
been fully solved. Tho Poles and Lithuan
ians aro becoming an important factor in our
schools. In fact, nearly one-fifth aro of tho
Slavonic race, and a largo majority aro
bright and intelligent, but many come to
school unable to speak on6 word of English.
At present thoy aro crowded into a room
with 50 or CO others, and it is utterly im
possible for a teacher to givo them the time
and attention which thoy should have ;
consequently they aro In tho lower grades
too long and hinder tho progress of other
pupils."
"Such children," continued Mr. Edwards,
irrespective of creed, casto or color, should
havo all tho advantages our public school
system affords; and if it becomes necessary
to erect a building to accommodate them, or
employ teachers who havo mastered tho
foreign languages, I will certainly givo it my
earnest support."
Mr. Edwards seemed to warm up on tho
subject as ho asked: "Why not give such
children who may never havo tho privilego
of entering a High school a teacher who can
understand their native language, and thus
assist them, as well as give tho children of
I moro fortunato circumstances a teacher
I thoroughly conversant In Latin? Wl
would think of asking our High school
pupils to learn Latin without a teacher?
And yet we have, so far, asked many children
to learn tho English languago without know
ing how to do it, "and without moro school
buildings and teachers it could not bo other
wise. Tho hopo of our town, stato and
country depends upon tho education of tho
young of to-day and it is practicable to
mould and mako good citizens out of this
foreign population. Shenandoah can and
should bo willing to do her part, and I think
tho peoplo will do it."
