Another great hinderanco TO our
schools, is a lack ofinterest on the part
OF parents. recollect that when undor
the old system, man signed (as it was
called a certain number Of scholars, Inc
would make every effort to have the
time made up, would urge his children
20 go through the seyerest winter storm,
and some times his child, not well
enough &c go, would plead to be allowed
TO stav at home, but the f4thei would
usually say "you must 40, for will
have your time n pay for whether you
90 or not" But under the present sys-
Tern, men pay their school tax but don't
seem to consider that unless they send
their children that, u them az least, II
h lost money. At present ] have no
means of knowing exactly, but ! sup
pose that not more than two thirds the
number Of children arc la our schools
