article than printers. AS d general rule
printers are last to be paid. and ofttmes
the small amounts due for the paper or
advertising is grudgingly paid. although
the party may have been benefited a hlii-
dred fold, aud enjoyed many pleasant
hours pert,sing the work of the printer.
We do not wish to be understood as colil-
planning at the printers lot, hard though
it may seem at times, we only Irish to
utter a few homely truths. Aud now we
wish to say that there are men in L:iin

are honesty itself, always pay their debts,
but don't. propose to be dunn"d, ami
threaten that if they are not let alone the

money" This is one OF the species the
printer MEETS, while others are bland
as a morning i'll Spring. and promise
but ntTer pay. A man that won't pay
when he can, Is not an honest man, and
the community in which he lives should be

of honor remaining, they will come for

We now have all aatimir;.ble corps of
teachers, Under the lead OF Prof SoA, and
onr schools have been unusually successful.
There seems to be but one drawback to
perfect success now. and that is the crowd
ell state of the rooms, the average to each
room being so, which is too much for health
at least. The district ought to have n
'argrr, better ventilated and lighted build
irg than the old frame known as the Cen
trail School-house. We owe it to oHr
children to furnish them pleasant. healthy
and attractive rooms in which to receive
their mental food the civilized world has
long outlivei the idea that anv barn or
lIogpen is suitable rs school-reoms for our
youth. And another thing may be men,
toned while we .arys on the snhject. and
that . that it IS rsoftey in the pockets of
every community to procure good teachers
and pay them living salaries. In this way
we can get and retain competent educators.
1t is now generally recognized fact that
frequent change of teachers is All injury to
the school. To make school all it should
be the efforts of directors should first he to
secl.re first class teachers, and the next to
pay them adequate salaries,-salaries equal
to men of brains in other depar: nlents oi
business-so that ti'ey may be induced to
remain permanently in their places.
