Of all professions school teaching is the one
most deserving OF the sympathies, aud should
have an honest, liberal support, OF moral as
well as Of financial character, from the
community.
One OF the greatest needs Of our schools is
permanent class of teachers II is too Of
ten the case that our teachers go into the
school-room from tho force OF circumstances,
not with the intention or expectation Of fol.
lowing it as a profession, from tho fact that
they cannot get employment in the school
room more than six months, on an average in
the year; and this to some extent disqnaliiies
them for other labor; and the wages are in
sufficient. A person who is qualified to
teach good school can get steady employ.
ment at some other avocation at the same
wages per month; consequently they leave
the shool-room, and quit tho profession. This
is the reason that our schools arc generally
filed with inexperienced teachers. This
state of affairs if remedied at all, must be
remedied by the patrons of the schools. All
tho laws that wise Legislature may enact
cannot cure this defect. Those directly in
terested must take more active part in Sc
curing good aud efficient teachers, and give
them employment for more than three
months as many districts do, just simply to
Gil the letter of law. / am well aware that
in some instances this would impose a heavy
tax upon the patrons; but the tax is nothing
compared with the benefits derived from a
good public school in community.
feel justified in saying that, during the
year just closing, the greater majority Of the
teachers are men and women that would be
an honor to aNy profession, and eqnaly in
telligcnt to any similar body in the State.

but the audience was highly respectable and
very appreciative We consider that this
entertainment was by far the best effort ever
made by the society, and We only wish We
had tho space 70 go ahead and speak Of IL as
VIC desire. Nearly all the performers rem
dcred their parts in a manner that would
have done credit to persons who have spent
years ON tho stage
