We clip the following items compiled from
the school law by the Lansing Republican,
as there seems to be quite diversity of
opinion among teachers relating to the new
school law:
1. A certificate is necessary because
School officers cannot contract with teach
er not holding one; no public money can be
paid to such teacher; districts employing
such teacher cannot draw public moneys. A
certificate must cover the entire time of en-
gagement as teacher.
2. Examinations are required by law upon
orthography, reading, writing, grammar,
geography, arithmetic, and theory and art of
teaching, and after the year 1881, U. S. his
tory and civil government, for any and all
grades of certificates. If an applicant pro-
poses to teach in a school where additional
branches are taught, the examiners can re-
quire examination upon such additional
branches.
3. Certificates of the first grade are valid

Continued from last week. }

Our next trip was from Worcester to New
Bedford by rail, and then by steamer across
Buzzard's Bay to Martha's Vineyard Island,
then by rail down the island to Edgartown,
from whence, on the day following, we were
going to try our hand at blue fishing. 1t
was quite late in the evening when we reach
ed the town, and some little time was spent
in employing a good, trusty captain of a
sailing boat. We knew that it was the "early
bird +" that caught the fish. and arrangements
the next morning. The old skipper was
more than true to his promise to be on time,
and called us out at two. A sail of fifteen
miles by moonlight, before good, stiff
breeze, brought US outside the island on
what are termed the riffs, where the fish are
found. The method of catching these fish is
by trolling behind the boat, and any one
who loves to fish can obtain rare sport in a
good catch of blue fish. As the tide goes
out oyer the rocks, which make the riffs,
quite large waves are formed, and when they
are augmented by stiff breeze, it adds ma
terially to the excitement of the sport. The
fish resemble our bass somewhat, but are a
little simmer and lighter colored, and weigh
about six pounds piece. They are more
gamy than the bass, and when one of them
grabs the hook, you know it. We took
twenty-seven fine ones in little while that
morning and returned to Oak Bluffs on the
Vineyard in the afternoon, well pleased with
our success. Oak Bluffs is city composed
almost entirely of hotels and cottages, and
has population of several thousand during
the summer, while in the winter it does not
exceed three or four hundred.
The Methodists of New England hold
their yearly camp.meetings there. They
have constructed building formed like a
tent without sides, with an iron roof and
wooden floor, furnished with seats capable
of holding five thousand persons. From
among all the nice seaside places we saw,
we would select Martha's Vineyard as the
most desirable in which to be dweller dur
ing the warm summer months. New Bed
ford, which geographers tell US was once
noted for its whale fishery, like the industry
that kept it alive, is dead. Kerosene oil
killed both. Many of the large ware houses
used in the whale oil traffic are closed. The
large whalers that formerly returned laden
with wealth to their owners, lay rotting at
the wharfs. Large quantities of whale oil in
hogsheads, were piled up covered with sea-
weed to protect them from the weather,
where it has lain for years awaiting a
market.
There is something, however done in the
whaling business there still. There is de-
mand and market for sperm oil and whale
bone, and the whales which produce them
are YET sought after. While staying there
we had the pleasure of going on board a
whaling vessel which was to sail the follow
ing day on two years voyage, and through

for three years throughout the county whore
granted; those of the second grade, for two
years throughout the county; and those Of
the third grade, for one year throughout the
county. Special certificates. granted by the
secretary of the board of examiners, are valid
in specified district only until the time of
the next public examination Irregular or spe-
ciaD by the board of school examiners, and
not longer.
4. The board of school examiners may re-
woke or suspend certificate for any reason
that would have justified it in withholding
such certificate when given; the board of
examiners may also suspend within the coun-
ty, for immortality or incompetency to in
struct or govern a school, the effect of a
state or normal school certificate. An op-
portunity for a defense against all charges
should be given the teacher.
s. A male teacher is required to pay fee
of one dollar, and female teacher fee of
fifty cents upon obtaining a certificate, pro-
vided such fee has not been paid previously
within the current school year. The school
year commences with the first Monday in
September.
6. A contract with teacher must be au-
thorized at meeting of the district board ;
it must be in writing, and signed by ma
jority of the board on behalf of the district
it must specify the wages agreed upon, and
shall require the teacher to keep correct
list of the pupils, their ages, and the number
of days each one is in attendance, and to
furnish the director with a correct copy of
the same at the close of the school. Con-
tracts must be in duplicate, one of which
shall be filed with the director and the other
furnished the teacher.
Z. The school law is silent upon the sub
ject of holidays; but the supreme court has
decided that there should be no deduction
from teachers wages on account of the
observance of legal holidays. The legal
holidays are January 1st, February 22d, May
3Oth. July 4th, December 25th, and all days
appointed by the president or governor as
days of fasting or thanksgiving.

laid by to finish repairing his house. On

would advise you never to show your face in

The fire fiend got into Fred Phelps woods
last Tuesday, doing considerable damage !;
as it not only burned over his wood lot, but
burned quite large amount of stove wood
which he had piled up in the woods. If it
keeps dry much longer these forest fires will
become more frequent, and it will stand every
one in hand to be somewhat cautious as q
great amount of damage may result from
someone's carlessness. Everything is as dry
as a tinder-box, and ready to ignite at the
first opportunity and when the forest once
gets on fire it is apt to sweep everything be-
fore it.
