To the EIitOr Of the Herald:


your recent issues, why some of the
Island Pond people do not use your
columns to say word about the town
system Of schools, if you will allow me
| will speak briefly in favor of the
town system. To a candid observer
the town system must appear to be far
in advance of the present lin most
towns district system. In all other
matters pertaining to general welfare
of citizens, where a tax is to be raised
for the support of any object or i'm
provemeIt, said tax is apportioned
equally according to til" grand list of
the tax payers. Why should we make
an exception in the matter of schools
Every individual is equally benefited
by living,in an educated community
why should not all bear the burden of
the support of good schools equally
BY the town system the management
of the schools is placed in the hands
of fewer men, and if good men are Sc
!ected to fill positions on the school
board, it would seem that better
schools would be the result. We have
in mind town where the district sys
tenn is in vogue; many of the districts
out of the villages are small and the
taxes must be, and are very high, some
paying as high as ninety Per cent;
in one of the thriving villages the
school is large and the public money
and income from school land nearly
supports the school for the year. The
tax is scarcely ever twelve cents or
the dollar. Now, why should the PEG
pie of the farming district he obliged
to pay snch large taxes, and other por
tions OF the town so small? Would i,
not be as just to make the lumberner
and teamsters who use the public
highway most pay the largest tax fol
the support of the road. We are il
the firm belief that taxes of all kinds
should be equally divided in proper
ton to the grand list. Even though
the result might not give us better
schools, but in those towns where the
town system has been practiced long
est we find no disposition on the part
of the people to return to the district
system. AS the time approaches for
this matter to come again before thu
people, would it not be well to hold 1
meeting of the voters and get some on,
who understands the town system t.
address the meeting, SO that all may
be able to vote intelligently in regard
to the matter when it comes befor,
them, as it must, at the annual towr
meeting, which is close at hand. W.
should like to hear from others in re
gard TO this subject as it is one of til,
principal topics which will come he
fore many towns on the first Tuesday
in March. CITIZEN.

NORTON.
E.litor of the Esses County Herald,

Editor ot' the Esses County Herald,
| noticed in your last issue COM
municltion from your East Charles
ton correspondent, whichin my opin-
ion demands careful consideration. 1t
asks for discussion in regard to the
relative advantages of the town and
district systems Of common schools. \
discussion of this question cannot fail
to awaken an interest in education,
and will, no doubt, be attended with
beneficial results. The State OF
Massachusetts, has, l think, generally
adopted the town system and it is rap
idly growing into favor in Maine.
Some of the benefits derived from it
are: better teachers, better school
houses, better appurtenanres for
teaching, uniformity of text books
and an equal distribution of school
money, giving to scholars in rural and
remote districts the same facilities for
acquiring an education us their more
favored but no more deserving neigh
bors in the villages. The system of
allowing ageRts to employ teachers is
not in my opinion IL correct one. Wit h
all due respect for agents, who rs u
rule, are hard worked and ill paid,
you cannot have failed to observe that
they are not often of u class especially
| qualified for such dIty. An agent of
ten has friend, or his wife has u
| friend or relative who wants to teach
and applies for the situation. Unler
the circumstances it is often diff cult
to say no, and lie is hired and com
mences the school. The committee,
knowing something of the case, will
grant him Il certificate even ii they
find him barely able to struggle
through an examination. The result
is often poor school and the money
wasteI. On the other lIanl commit
! tees are selected for their fitness for t he
position; under the town system they
will advertise for teachers who must
undergo competitive examination.
If ten are wanted, twenty will usually
apply; the ten best ones are selected
and employed and the Others will sc
into some occupation they are better
adapted to, or else to some other tow
and hire out under the district system
Wherever, TO my knowledge, the tow
system has been introduced AMI given
| fair trial, it has accomplished the
best results and it is only IL question
of time when it must become firmly
eSta blShed. d. W. f.
