The new school law throws out ior
the public benefit the following valuable
amendment:
cit shall be the duty of every school
trustee to see that the school house is
kept clean and in good order and that
fires, when necessary, are made aud
kept therein; but no expense shall be
incurred therefor to exceed fifty cents
per week.
The passage Of this amendment is
due, in the main, 20 the earnest efforts

valuable services which were rendered
by our last Legislature. The law, now,
makes it the duty of Boards of educa-

than Fifty cents per week for each room
during the time the school is in session.
This is right aud We shall certainly give

several valuable amendments which we
