For the JefferSonian.
Union School and District No. 8.
Mr.. EDITOR Pardon the pre-
sumption.
Because the two schools have il
the past been separate, and because
there have been radical differences
existing between the Boards of tht
two, are no reasons why such should
be the case any longer. 1t is no Ion
ger question of differences, but s
question OF unity. In aniOn there i.
strength.
If No. 9has been successfully man
aged as an independent school, its
success has been only partial. II
could not be, from the very nature
of things, a complete success. AS
now equipped, it has three teachers
High School, intermediate and
Primary.
The High School embraces net
only the pupils who strictly belong
to it, but also the Grammar School
pupils. The intermediate embraces
the intermediate and Secondary pu
pills. Each one of the five grades.
High, Grammar, intermediate, Sec.
ondary and Primary, should be q
distinct and separate department.
But they are crowded together into
three schools. No teacher, however
capable, can do himself or his school
Justice under such circumstances
Now, / appeal to any enlightened
man or woman in the District, wheth
er it is better to remain in this con.
dition, or become part of the Un-
ion District, and thereby enjoy lis
superior advantages and facilities.
To state the matter in q clearer
light, let us illustrate the subject by
what is the actual state of affairs in
the High School of District No. O.
The teacher of it is also Superintend-
ent of the District. His entire time
is occupied in teaching, and there.
fore, he must depend to a great ex.
tent upon his subordinate teachers

to work out and engineer matters
which he alone should do. This be
ing the case, what can he do but
sink himself to the mere teacher and
master of one school-room +? 1t Is
well known that he has six hours.
time in which to do his daily work.
From this must be deducted one hall
hour for recesses, leaving five and
one half hours to hear recitations.-
Here, permit me To address one ques-
ton 10 any or all in District No. ,,
whether members of the Board OF
Education or not. Can any one tell
how many rccitations the teacher o.
Of the High School hears in five ana
one half hours ? just seventeen. -
That is, on on average, he has nine
teen minutes and t,ceny four seconds
in which 10 hear single recitation
How much can he accomplish, how
much can his class do in that time !?
Think of lesson in English Gram
mar, Algebra, Geometry, Natural
Philosophy, Chemistry, German or
Latin, recited, and all its points OF
brought out in nineteen min
'stss and t,centyJour secOstas.
In the High School of the Union
School. the present term, there are
eighteen recitations. The two assis-
amt teachers, each, have seven reci-
,atiOns in five and one-half hours,
md the Superintendent four, requir-
Nc one half his time, the other half
,eing devoted to his business as
superintendent. Each one of the
has, therefore, forty-seven
minutes and eight seconds, on an
Iverage, for a recitation. Again.
Look at the grades in the Union
school. They consist of Junior Pri-
nary, Senior Primary, Secondary,
Intermediate, Grammar and High |
and pupils are required to
ASS through all these in their order

Union School and District No. 8.
Mr.. EDITOR Under the above
caption, / noticed an article in your
last paper, signed, "District NJ. 90
to which would like to reply at
some length, but disliking newspaper
controversies, and not wishing to
enter into an argument on the sub
ect at this time, l would simply say
that / am authorized and requested
by the ''powers that be- to say to
No. 9. that they have before them a
paper, signed by at least nine-tenths
OF the citizens and taxpayers OF said
District, wherein they most earnest.
ly and emphatically protest against
being merged into, or annexed to
the so-called Union School District,
/, and being a loyal and law-abiding
set of men, believing that majority
should rule, they do not, under pres
ent circumstances, feel themselves
called upon to take any immediate
steps for the consummation of the
objects indicated, the implorings,
entreaties and demands of "No. 8" 10
the contrary notwithstanding and /
very much fear that he is doomed to
be disappointed, and will have his
hopes blasted for the present at least.
l will further say to him, and those
for whom he is evidently laboring,
that when the Union Board can
make a satisfactory showing that
they are out of debt, and on as good
a footing as District No. 0 is at this
time, it will be time enough to agi-
tate this question.
So much for No. O. But while up
on this subject / have word to say
10 the fathers and mothers of our
youth: Your Boards of Education,
{ who, by the by, labor for you with
out fee or reward) have established
good schools in your midst, employ.
ed efficient and faithful teachers,
made your school houses and their
surroundings comfortable and attrac-
tive. Will you now on, your part, as
sist them and your teachers in the
work? By frequently visiting the
schools and showing your children
that you take an interest in their pro-
gress, and above all, by seeing to it
that they attend school regularly
and are not kept out on every trif-
ling pretext, You can insure the
greatest possible return for the
money that you are obliged to ex
pend. The old adage, "where there
is will there is u way.'' applies to
each and all of you with unabated
force. Will you do it?
