Let 10 Have q School.

There are about forty boys in and
around Homer, which should be in
school every day. There is II good
school building standiug vacant and
these boys that should be in school
are deprived Of the pri, ilege of
drinking from the fountain Of knowl.
edge for the simple reason that
there is neither teacher or school
within reach OF their homes. Homer,
place formerly noted for the edu.
ca,ional advantages which it offered
to the young, and which attracted
patronage from abroad, now has not
even school OF any kind for her
young men and boys. 1t is II re.
proach TO the town that sucb in the
case. There is no good excuse to
be given. There is 10 reason why
we should not have a school which
would be u credit to the town aud
community. The children are here.
The people are able 10 school them.
There is u good building waiting for
the purpose. Teachers are not bard
to fluid. There are numbers of teach.
ers in the parish; experienced and
capable; some of whom with the
proper Efforts could be induced TO
come To Homer. The people of Ho.
mer will prove recrpant to ~tleir
own best interest if they do not
make an effort TO SECURE n good
teacher and establish good sc hool.
There is nothing which speaks in
louder tones III praise of a town or
cor munity than tlourshing schools.
There is nothing better calculated
To place the name of n place in bad
repute than the absence of schools.
Homer can not afford TO be without
u school. There are numbers of
places in the parish where good
schools are maintained. We mn I not
be out done by any community in
the parish.
Our people should awake on this
subject. The year is advancing and
teachers will soon have made or.
ranScmcn's for Ale year. There is
no time To be lost, \ teacher can be
secured, and steps looking that way
should at once be taken. The pee
pie of Homer are too intelligent and
appreciate too highly tie importance

They will move and move promptly.
aud we shall soon have the pleasure
OF announcing the fact that Homer
has tiourisling school. For that
end let us all work.
