OPPOSITION TO EDUCATION,

In mixing with the people We find OPP
position to education on the ground that it
is not beneficial to the productive interest
Of the country. There is some gloun1 for
the objection. The idea seems to prevail
that education is incompatible with labor.
In other words, it is not respectable to
peform manual labor, Boys think they
must leave the farm, the shop, or the forge
for some more honorable occupation. Men
of solid worth find objections to these
things. They SEQ that the productive
interest of the country suffers. The pro.
fessions are crowded. The farm is de.
s!rtcd. Honest toll is at q discount.
These men do not oppose education,
bat they do oppose the idea that chill
dren should be educated, so that they can
make living without work. Our coun
try is suffering to day for the want OF men
to cultivate intelligently the soil. We
want a healthy sentiment in the schools.
We do not want our children educated to
live without work. Such an idea is all
wrong. 1t is far more honorable, to Ia.

CO-olPiER,sTION.

In order to secure the best results, the
people, directors, and school officers must
work in harmony. Those who have net
fully studied the school question are
hardly aware of the difficulties to be over
come, or the opposition to be met. There
is no danger provided the friends of pub
lie schools understand each other and
prepare themselves to meet the issue.
We must have better school houses. It
will take money to build them. Here
both people and directors may expec; to
6nd'difhculties. AS long as we have q
poor class of school houses, we may ex>
pect inefficient schools. One improves
mcnt leads to another.
Teachers as class are poorely paid.
They have bu: little encouragement to
prepare themselves for teaching. When
teacher does prepare himself for the
school room, he seldom follows teaching
for a profession, because it will not afford
him decent support. The difficulty Of
constant change of teachers arises
How can we best meet the difficulties
A united effort to build up an eficent
school system will secure eventually the
desired results. The school directors arc
the most important officers under the
school law. They will, 10 great meas,
ure, determine the salaries Of teachers
establish q uniform system of school
books. and secure better school houses.
We as directors and school officers
must consult the people and cooperate
with them. A school system draws ii
vitality from the people. We must ed
ucatc the public mind and create heath,
public sentiment.

Educational.

Tennessee may now be considered fair.
ly in line with educational progress. She
has common school system born of her
own experience, and the best thought Of
those of her citizens who have devoted
themselves to removing ignorance. The
system is simple effective and adapted
to the peculiar wants Of our people, and
if our people meet these noble efforts Of
educators and legislators, as we firmly be-
lieve they will, there will be g,aui stride
to the very front rank this Winter.
In this adoption of broader system
OF schools, there are several features that
demand the most profound consideration
OF school officers and patrons, among
which are the cooperation of public and
private schools; Second, the supplying
of teachers for the common schools /:
Third, the adoption of text books. 1t
Is with this last feature that we will deal
in this article. In private school where
teacher generally remains for successive
years, becoming acquainted with his pu>
pills as they grow up, and where the
teacher naturally enough falls into the
habit of teaching orally more than from
the text books, and where pupils learn to
depend for explanations Of principles al.
most entirely upon the teacher, there the
matter OF text books is secondary. But,
in public OF common schools, this is ne>
cessarily reversed. The number OF
schools being greatly increased, a large
number O. new teachers are Brought in
to the field. In the case of Tennessee,
thousands will teach this winter for the
FIRST time, and each year will find large
number of changes of teachers from one
school to another. while many years to
con e each will find the work of elas>
slhcation Of pupils difficult one. For
these reasons the question of text books
becomes of primary Importance, as they
will change far less often than the teacher.
both teachers and pupils must look to the
text books, as the main help in arranging
classes, explaining principles, teaching the
use of the various branches and keeping
IN the pupils's mind what he has learned.
Teachers will come and go, but text book
is constantly with the pupil at home and
at school. The book should therefore be
a complete teacher itself in many res
poets. 1t should be attractive, fresh,
interesting and of nature to constantly
stimulate the pupil to further researches
among it, pages, The common school
teacher can do little more for the larger
part of his term than simply hear recita>
tions, and if the teacher be new in the
work, he will con6ne himself almost en-.
tirely to just what the text book says

Our Schools.

We are glad to notice that cur people
are wakeing up to the necessity Of effort
on the subject Of popular education. and
from present indications we are satisfied
that the day is not far distant when every
county in the State will have its regular
ly organized system Of free schools.
The. development of our school system
and the afording proper facilities for the
education of every boys and girl in our
State, is the FIRST step to grand develop
ment Of our resources.
About the first question propouuded
to us by the intelligent foreigner whom
We try to interest in our State is, what
is the condition of your schools? We
find that those counties that have voted
for the school tax, are looked upon with
more favor as a desirable field for invest.
ment than those that have refused. Let
our land owners understand this. II
they want to dispose Of their surplus land
if they want help t, develop the vast re-
sccurtes of the State, If they want the
man Of capital or skill, or energy, to
come and dwell with Us, they must have
schools. The men who are worth bay,
ing are interested themselves in the cause
education. No man whom We would desire
as citizen is willing to come and settle
down in county where his children will
grow up in ignorance.
The school house, remember, is the
producer of development and the corner
stcne of permanent prosperity. II then
for no higher reason than that of materin
gain, let every friend Of our State do al

DISTRICT CLERKS.

We call atte ltion of these off GERS to
the importance of making all transfers
in writing at or near the beginning of the
school. In this way we think most of the
difficulties arising out of transferring pu>
pills from ore district to another can be
avoided.
The school law also requires the clerk to
give bond. This matter should be atten-
ded to at an early day. The districts
are organized and ready for work.

The OFFICE OF SLEEP.-Nature
won't be robbed How many times have
you heard the old saying? Experienced
fathers and mothers urge upon youthful
sons and daghters that they should have
regular hour for going to rest at night,
and that hour be an early one, 80 that by
an abundance Of sweet sleep they may
not fail Of the best measure of physical
and mental growth, Hours Of sleep, not
the sleep of exhaustion, are hours Of
accumulation. Some one asserts that
the greatest preachers have been great
sleepers. Does the fact that the pastor
sometimes finds himself compelled to
write late into Saturday night to finish
his sermon explain the lack of force in
his pulpit efforts on the Sabbath One
