School Teachers.

| hope to call attention to one
paragraph in the Petition and APP
peal OF Taxpayers" etc, in the
MAIL of the 18th.
"Thc salaries of teachers in the
common schools are far greater than
is necessary to secure the services
of the persons employed For sec
ond class schools $1,000 per month
would bc ample, and Tor first ella :,
$4,000"
First, to "securc the services of
the persons employed " $500 per
month will not be sufficient to pay
board and washing, let alone cloth
ing and other ncccssarieS. 100
per month for" second class teach
ers is as little as such persons can
live on and devote their whole time
to teaching. There are, and maybe
persons who have other mcaTs and
business, who can and will teach
for less hat it will always be care
less and hap haz ard teaching.
4 competent teacher, endowed by
nature with sense, tact and ability,
as we'll as blessed with scholastic
education and culture must devote
his or her whole time and mind 10
the business, to really educate chill
drcn and must max. teaching bust
ness. Such persons must be paid 4
sufficicncy for livelihood, or they
cannot not teach. The second class
school requires all the time and
mind of the teacher to perform his
or her duly. Such teachers should
be paid sufficient to enable them to
he honest in the discharge of their
duties. The first class school has
studies in higher branches of cduca-
ton, and the teacher is expected to
have expended years in acquiring
such branches and these teachers
should be paid in proportion.
A "grammer school teacher
must be an educated person, an to
teach must give his or her time to
the occupation.
The state of New York has vol
UNFAIRLY increased the pay of her
public teachers. NJ issis sippians,
pay your teachers sufficient to cna-
BILE them to live by teaching and de-
note themselves educated men and
women) to your children and you
will not have to send your children
TO other states to be instructed.
See that your teachers are paid
we'll aud paid in money, not in
warrants twenty-five and thirty
cents below par.
