The Reopening Of the Public Schools Of Mimi
cipality No. T'Do-The vacation closed on the last
of August. Ca Monday, the 4th, the Schools
were reopened. 1t gives us pleasure to learn that
the attendance of pupils was unusually large, and
gives indications that the Municipal authorities
will soon be called upon to extend the facilities for
educating the children of the people. We have
been informed that while the number of scholars
in attendance is large, considering the season Of
the year, yet many Of the Teachers not at their
posts. II is true that some obtained leave of alb
sence, "a system which we deprecate, unless for
some extraordinary cause) yet many have failed in
that punctuality so much to be desired in the nd.
minisration Of our Public Schools. We trust the
Board of Directors, who meet on this evening,
will take this matter into serious consideration, and
act without fear or favor" We are not ac-
quainled with the names of the absentees, and
have no friends to reward, and no enemies to
punish, but speak from sense of duty. Salaries
are liberal and vacations reasonable, and The
Teachers ought 10 give good reasons for their ie.
gal absence.
