male teacher must, in all instances. be EN-
Ployed portion Of the year. A good female
teacher Is far N re beneficial Tor any school
taan poor male teacher, and can usually be
employed for about the same price. In schools
composed principally of small scholars, the
former is particularly adapted to the charge,
and should always be preferred By employ
ing female teachers when the condition of the
school will permit, and where competent male
teachers cannot be obtained. many Of the diff
cultles and trials Of establishing good schools
IN new settlements viii be obyiared
When good teachers can be employed no
considerations Of parsimony should be allow
ed TO interfere. The cheapest teacher Is usu-
ally the most expensive in the end. Ii is
needless to cite Instances Of schools broken
up. or their usefulness DESTROYED, or of dis
UIcis divided IN feeling and interest. as the
consequences of employing incompetent and
nntaitaiul teachers. The truth is. good

Whatever may be the qualities and virtues
Of the school teacher, there are duties the
performance Of which does not rest with him.
lie must have the cooperation OF those un-
der whose charge the children are when away
from the school room. Parents and guardi-
ans should exercise a constant care over their
chI.dreu's progress, and show bv frequent
visitati0ns that they have interests and hopes
in the welfare Of the school
The income of the School Fund is to be
expended in the payment Of teachers wages.
