THE SCHOOL.
During these many years of pro-
gressive educational development il is
well to mention some of the work done.
In Luthersburg and Dubois schools
have been ngraded and placed on an
educational basis that it is hoped all
the other schools will receive as soon
as il can be done. Coal Hill is the
most noted school for practical results
in the township. Twenty-Five teach.
crs, or onc-fifth that has ever taught
in the township, have stepped from the
Coal Hill school room into the teachers
profession in the free school, besides
a large number who have taught sub
scription schools. All these teachers
were successful in the profession. This
school to-day stands the model school
of the township. When all the citi-
zens will give their full support to the
schools, then will all our schools be.
come model schools. Brady has had
the benefit of successful management
of her schools, paying her teachers fair
wages, but never excessive always
paying her debts when they become
due, and reaping good reward for
the amount paid
AS was said before, the progress of
education in the early history of the
township was slow, though as progress
sive as time would allow until 1868,
when a new life was infused into the
work, and by 1879 We find nineteen
well-organized schools and an educa-
tional interest awakened among the
people scarcely equaled in the county.
The township on account of its great
territory, population, and general re.
quirements has been divided, and in
this year it will start out on a new
period, but one that will be marked
with education as her greatest and
foremost work. "Then in view of our
educational interests as whole, tho
work which was to be done, what has
been done, and the obstacles amid
which it has been accomplished, it
seems to me every impartial person ac-
quainted with the workings Of the sys-
TEN must be favorably impressed with
it. True, it has not accomplished all
that might have been accomplished nor
all it is destined to accomplish. Every
great work is work of time, and can
only be accomplished by persevering
and patient love. A foundation has
been laid upon which structure may
be raised more noble than the grand.
est achievements Of human architec-
tpre. This is nna of the Graafasf usn-ls
that is 10 bless and adorn our land.
