treasurer's report, to audit which Sen
ator Cavender and Edwin Mcdowell
were appointed, was reported to be en-
tirely satisfactory, showing balance
in hand of $548.23 The principals re-
port was read after which a ballot was
taken for two commissioners, resulting
in the reelection of VIM. NJ. Bell and
John II. HOilccker for term of three
years. Senator Cavender stated that
he desired to call the attention of the
meeting to matter that ought to be
an important consideration to every
one interested in our towns school.
the unequal distribution of the public
school fund. The speaker said that
Smyrna is not receiving as much in
proportion to the number Of scholars
enrolled as other places in the lower
county are, and that with our indorse-
ment and cooperation, he would en-
deavor to secure such legislation as
will insure an equitable disbursement
ofthe States appropriation. L. Irving
Handy approved Senator Cavender's
views on the subject, and urged our
immediate and united action. in the
support Of a measure that will bring us
that portion of the States aid we are
justly entitled to. John II. Hofecker
moved that it be the sense Of the meet

there is a grave responsibility in the
management of the school; in the
first place, in the appliances for study
and comfort, and secondly in the di-
recting hand that guides the studies in
the direction of the most practical bene-
fit and then leaves an intellectual and
moral impress on minds which the
trifes of life cannot eface.
If we rightly interpret the under
current of public feeling, the conditions
named above have not been fully met
in our consolidated schools. The
scholars have been made to lose much
valuable time because of insufficient
warmth, producing a state of demorali-
cation that cOunteracted the best efforts
of the teachers. The pump has been
allowed to go unmended, giving the
children an excuse for trespassing on
people in the neighborhood almost
without control. The responsibility in
these particulars rest with the Direc-
tors, as do back of persons and places,
the shaping of the studies and ultimate
responsibility and in no sense should
parents be made to feel that they had
lost by consolidation.

Seventeen N-ear Loeusts.

There are very few people who re-
member more than two visitations of
the seventeen year locusts or more
properly, Cjcdda Septendicun, the third
visitation looking back from this date
being 1884 The first date of which
the is any record of them was 1749 and
they have come at regular periods
since, this.year making one of the seven
teen. Some of our farmer friends re-
member them in 1851 and still more in
1868. In 1884 they were very distruc-
tive to the foliage of trees, but grow
less in number with each visitation,
probably from the destruction of the
forests and the increase of the cities
and towns They do not bite nor sting,
and do no hurt to the trees only caus-
ing the death of the twig from where
the egg is deposited to the end. They
generally come in the warm days Of
June, maintain an average life of six
weeks and their mission being filled
depOsiting their eggs, they die. There
is difference of opinion as to the time it
takes to hatch the eggs, some authori-
ties placingit at fourteen days and 9th
ers as high as forty days. When the
young insect bursts the shell it is one
sixteenth of an inch long, of a yellow
ish-white color, the eyes and claws of
the fore-legs being reddish. The in

Our Public schools.

At the school election on Saturday
two vacancies in the Board ofDirectors
Of our consolidated schools. caused
by the expiration of time, were filled.
The interest in the schools was not
manifested or rather measured by the
number in attendance. In fact the
mass OF men, engaged as they are in
the practical pursuits of life, disassoci-
ated almost entirely from books. feel
that scholastic pursuits and the meth
ods of teaching of to-day arc out of
their realm. Especially is this so since
the consolidation of the Districts-the
introduction Of new studies, rigid class
Iiications, &c. Their interest is none
the less, but the recent tactics of school
drill are so different from those of for
mer years that they hesitate at a
critical expression of what in their mind
they feel perfectly assured. There is no
interest with our heads Of families out
side Of the business directly under their
control of such vital Importance as
that of our schools. The largest tax
collected goes TO its support. Tn them
our children are prepared for the Duties
of life. Perhaps not more than one in
fifty have any other alma Mater. Such
being the case, it must be readily seen
that their management becomes one of
paramount Importance to our citizens.
And, there is an emphasis in this from
the fact that time lost, wasted or mis-
applied in the last years of a boys or
girls period Of education is lost bevond
recovery. Promising that there is no
fault in this partieularwith the scholar.
