Public xe ehooi.

We are little astonished at the small
number ofpupis attending our public school.
This school should be taught by as good
teacher rs can be procured, and we should
think that the community wo'd consul, their
interest. and the welfare of their children in
concentrating their support upon this school,
instead of dividing their children out among
private teachers in squads Of ten or fifteen
at place.
1t is a settled fact. we think, that children
advance with more rapidity, and are better
educated in public schools, or where they
are thrown in contact with large number
of pupils. than in private ones. where their
contact with other children is more limited.
The word Education, in its true sense, does
not simply imply scholastic learning. but re-
fers to everything in connection with tho
training of youth for success and usefulness
when they shall become men and women.
They should therefore, at an early period.
he subject to the trials and conflicts. on a
small scale, that must necessarily befall
them in after life. Children that have been
raised teuderly rarely succeed so well in the
world as those that have been made to feel
their might and rely upon themselves.
To suoce.d eminrntly in the world. we all
know. requires energy. perseverance, an'
courage. u will. and a resolution un-haSen

These in, ilusble moral qualities are cult

pc. education; by teaching child to over
come physical difficulties by toll. and placing
him in constant aud vigorous competition
with other children, as is the case in public
school.
In the proper education OF children. con-
| slant reference should be made in all the dis
cipline to which we subject them, to the part
they may be called upon to act in mature
| life.
Union is strength in everything ; and II
would be altogether better, both in an econ
omical and educational point OF view for The
people OF Grass Valley School District, to
center their support on the public school,
