School reform is one of the most iGaEor=
tant questions of the present day. It is of
interest In every city where the faults of the
systems are beginning to be seen and felt
The interest on this subject has of late de-
veloped in New York, and if it extends to
other cities the public at large will be the
gamer thereby. In that city it is proposed
to organize q permanent society like that
which accomplished such grand results in
Philadelphia. The object Of the society will
be broad, but it is proposed at first to con-
centrate attention to the evils of overcrowd-
ing in the primaries, and to the bad lighting
and ventilation. An attempt will be made
at once to secure the appointment of COM
mission of trained educators to examine into
the condition of the schools. It is not pro-
posed to antagonize the board of education,
but rather to push them to and back them in
every movement for real reform.
Boards of education under present condi-
tions are powerless in many ways and can
only move according to their means, and these
depend almost entirely on the power of
others. Such societies will afford channels
for the expression of public opinion and
consequently act with the whole force OF
such opinion. The proper maintenance OF
our free school system is certainly depen-
dent on increased accommodations. SO that
primary children may be especially cared fol
and the number of children to each teacher
be decreased rather than increased. Such
| changes may require large outlays of money
but in the end the results would be more
than satisfactory. Until public opinion makes
the demand the public schools will not get
What is their due.

A very Easy Gramrna-.

The grammar in poetry here pre-
sented is without doubt the brietest one
of English language in existence, and
any one ought to commit the lines to
memory:
Three little words you often see,
Are articles a, an and the.
A nouns the name of anything,
AS school or garden, hoop or swing.
III
Adjectives, the kind OF noun,
As great. small, pretty, white or brown.
Instead of nouns the pronoun stand
Her head, his face, your arm, my hand.
Verbs tell something to be done
20 read, jump, laugh, skip or run.
How things are done the adverbs tell
As slowly, quickly, i'll or well.
VII
Coniunctions Join the words together,
As men aud women, wind or weather.
VIII
The proposition stands before
\ noun, as in, or through the door
X
The interjection shows surprise,
As oh, how pretty, All, how wise.
The whole are called nine parts of
speech,
Which reading, writing, and speaking
teach.
