School Matters.
r. The people Of vinton, at their
School Meeting, recently, passed reso-
luton unanimously, asking the township
School Board to levy tax sufficient to
raise $4,000, for the use Of that district
$4,000 to be expended in the erection
Of a School House $500, in paying the
rent of rooms in which to hold schools
the present year, and 800 in the pur-
chase of fuel aud defraying the incden-
tai expenses of the current year. This
is the right kind Of liberality, and speaks
volumes for the educational spirit of the
citizens of Vinton. With shame, we
contrast it with the action. or rather in
action, of our own citizens. The cause
OF Education, one which should lay near
est the heart Of every citizen, is evident
ly much neglected in our midst. Our
school meetings are slimly attended. and
school affairs. with few exceptions, re.
ceive not the fostering care which their
Importance demands. At the recent
school meeting for this Township Dis
trict, but siz persons were present, and
five Of them were the recently elected
School Directors. This state Of things
should not exist, and we trust will no
in future. Iowa is endowed with a mag
niicent School Fund, now constitution
ally guarded in the strictest manner
against loss. and the people owe it to
themselves and posterity to make it USE
full in the highes. degree. Nothing will
so much induce immigration. as prop.
er attention to school affairs, and the
people Of Independence could in no way
better promote even the pecuniary in
terests Of the town and county, than by
taxing themselves literally for the build
ing Of good school houses, and the en-
ployment Of first class Teachers. Let
US think about it until next year, and
then act promptly and efficiently in the
premises.
