They Want "A Rest.

To the editor of the Globe Republic:
SIR:--A goodly number of the country
schools are closed until Monday. and there
is no good reason why all should not be
closed. Surely the country. from which
our cities and towns draw much of their
support, can better afford To be liberal. in
the way of granting privileges to their
teachers, than the cities and towns. sThe
time will eventually come, if the teachers
of the country prepare themselves for their
work as do those of our cities and towns,
that country boards of education will show
their appreciation of the good work the
teachers do by granting them the privilege
of allowing them Friday as holiday when
any national holiday falls upon Thursday.
This has been the usual custom in our cities
and larger towns for a number of years.
What teachers in the rural districts need
more than anything else is to make special
preparation for their work, then 10 exer-
else independence enough to assert their
rights, and courage enough to stand up fol
them. 4 SYMPATHIZER.
