TO SCHOOL DIRECTORS.

We are encouraged at the success hat
has attended our school operations. The
directors are mainly responsible for the
success or the failure Of the public
schools in the districts. The experience
OF the last year should be turned to
practical account in the future. The in.
experience of the directors in some in
stances has prevented the full realization
of the best results in attending public
schools, Wherein failures have been
made, the course should be looked into
and the proper remedy applied. After
all, the directors are among the most inn
portant officers connected with the school.
1t is of the highest importance that these
school officers should inform themselves
on the best methods of teaching, organ.
zing, and conducting schools. If men
who know nothing Of these things are put
over the district shoots, only partial suc>
cess can be expected. 1t is not uncom,
mon for men to be made school directors
who are entirely incompetent 10 Judge of
the qualifications Of the teachers, or to
direct the affairs of the district in such a
way as to obtain the best results.
Tho locating aud erecting school houses
should demand their special attention.
They should understand something about
school house architecture, and be able to
improve on the prevailing style of country
school houses. One of our greatest difi>
culties is the want Of better district
school houses. 1t is a crying shame to
our people that the children arc forced,
in many cases, to attend school in such
houses as are to be found in some of our
districts in this county. Those old dilap-
idated structures are held in a kind of
vencratiOn by those who think any kind
ola house is coed enough 'to keep school
in" Those same individuals will build
large, we'll arranged, and expensive
barns for THEN cattle and horses, while
the school house to which they send ,heil
children is as uncomfortable as it can pos.
sibly be. To the school directors we
must look for batter school houses.

ance in this place last Thursday. W.
must confess that we we're very much sur
priscd to find the whole family 50 near of

FREE sCUOOL VTCMs

As early asal635, tho formation of
free schools was recognized BY law in
Massachusetts,. In 1912, the General
Assembly ordered that every villnge. con-
tanning Fifty families, should maintain a
school, in which reading and writing
should be taught and that. every town.
ship or district. con tanning ono hundred
families should support a grammar school.
Scotland was tue FIRST country in Eu.
rope to establish a complete system of
parish schools for the instruction of all
the children of the country. In 1896. it
was enacted that every parish should
maintain a school, with a male teacher,
for whom tho land,holders should erect
a school house and a dwelling. In
Scotland all classes arc better educated,
to-day, than any other country of Europe
except possibly Prussia.

John Allison, jr.
We call attention to the announcement
of this gentleman, to be found in another
column. H0 is O candidate for our next
Legislature, and, although his political
views do not correspond with ours, we
have no hcsitancy in saying that he would
make a faithful representative.
Mr.. Allison has been q member of the
Jonesboro' bar for nearly four years, aud
it is but justice to him to say that during
that time be has fully demonstrated that
he is not only a good lawyer but a bold
and fearless advocate Of whatever he con.
ceivos to be right. He has been connect,
cd with some very important lawsuits
tried in our courts ard in them has acquit-
ted himself crcditahly. He was born'and
raised IN our county and is we'll aoquaint-
ed with the wants Of u people. In his
genial bearing toward all those with whom
be comes in contact lie is affable and
courteous, always disposed to accommo>
date, even at the cost of personal incon-
venience. We saYthis much for Mr.. AL
lison, because We consider him a worthy
young man. We always have tho bold>
ness to say What we think is right and
proper and to do justice to all young men
aspiring to Office, whether they belong to
u party or to the Democratic party.

SCHOOL.

A very puzzling question to us is, how
to secure better teaching in the public
schools! We have many excellent
teachers in the schools, but the number is
entirely too small. The best way to im>
prove the schools is to improve the teach>
era. This w take for granted, There
are some instances where teachers refuse
to avail themselves of the opportunities
offered them for self>improyement. Such
instances are not very common, but still
they are to be found. better methods
Of teaching they care nothing about, but
are perfectly satisfied with such acquire
ments as teachers we're expected to have
twenty years ago. They read nothing on
the subject of teaching school, neither do
they visit the schools Of the wide,awake
teachers to see how our best schools are
managed. We notice this class of teach>
crs never attend Institutes or other mce>
tipgs for the Improvement of those who
labor in the school room. They are pom.
pous. self>willed, full Of prejudice, and, at
the same time the most cxacting persons
imaginable. They may be clever men
and women, but they are entitled to no
credit for that, in as much as every body
ought to be clever. We are dealing with
a class of teachers who already think they
know enough, perhaps they do, but, we
claim that no person has any right to
teach school who does not give the sub,
ject careful study. and avail himself, or
herself Of every advantage that presents
itself for selfimprovement, Those who
are really qualified to do efficient work in
the school room are the most eager to
soize every opportunity to improve them-
selves in the pedagogical art. 1t is very
difficult to do anything with a district
where incompetent teachers tamper with
the schools, How car We improve
them?
