Here is one fault Of past best methods of

Educational.
Plain Talk to School Teachers
II.

| IL Is time that some one should offer 10 school
teachers a few plain, candid wor,..s on the sub.
ject of .hirkiny
Other laborers are required 10 work twenty.
six days for a month, teachers only twenty.
two. Mechanics are REQUIRED TO work ten
hours day. teachers only six. so that while
Others work sixty hours a week the teacher
work only thirty-ihree.
Inns Is all right. proper and fair. II is riqht
because it is all the law of the state REQUIRES
Ii Is proper, because with the class of scbol.
ars which attend public schools six hours a d,v
Is all that could be probably spent in the
school room.
And 1t Is fair because there are but few men
who had not rather work ten hours in the ship
yard or on farm than six in the school room.
But when teachers go farther than the law
allows, aud take all day Saturday and part Of
wednesday TO themselves. thus reducing their
weeks labor to less than Thirty hours. the par
ent may well ask. what next~
well know the excuse which is offered in
defence Of this practice
III Is SAID that 1.-THE scholars need recreation
and mental relaxation, and that they will make
more improvement 10 take all day SATURDAY.
anu part OF "Wednesday for recreation" But
TINS excuse is too superficial. In plain terms
the real motive in this practice is laziness and
and desire TO shirk
In large places where the schools continue
eight or nine months in the year, perhaps four
or h'e days in week is enough, but even in
those places it would look much better TO LEI
the committee arrange that matter than for the
teachers TO take it into their own hands. But
in small districts having only from four TO six
months school in a year, any such practice
should be resisted. not only by the committee
and agent, but by the public sentiment of the
whole district.
No school agent should approve a teachers
bill unless he has actually spent. in teaching.
the time required by the law OF the state: and
then if teachers want all day SATURDAY,. let
them take it, and make up for lost time.
well know that il is possible for child to
study so hard As to be injured: but while such
cases are among the possibil.t ties they are en-
tremely rare. And in fact / very much doubt
II 1t is possible for 4 strong healthy child TO
study hard enough to hurt himself in school
7oars. For have in my mind a certain dis
trict In which the younger scholars are fully
four years in advance Of most scholars; and
many OF these young scholars study evenings.
and take private lessons between terms and
they are as healthy lot Of children as / ever
saw And in medical practice of six years l
have never seen a single child suffering from
the effect Of over brain work.
