OPTIONAL LAw.--Mcssrs Editors 1t Is very
evident to the writer's mind that the Legislature
should change the law in reference TO the number
OF days which constitute n week in teaching
school, and make II absolute, either five days for
a week, or five and half days, and not have the
matter optional with the committee and district
as the law now stands Most OF the teaches In
one district the committee was instructed not TO
hire teacher unless they would teach five and a
half days for a week. II makes both teacher and
scholars under such AN arrangement, feel restless
while all the rest Of the schools In town keep only
five days for week; five days In a week are sui
fcent for study, and scholars will learn more
than they will In six days Atany rate, Hope the
law will not be left optional hereafter; either have
1t five days, or five and u half days,
