FRIDAY. AUGUST, 10, 1883.
OUR SUPERINTENDENT.
SAN ANTONIO, August l

SAN ANTONIO, August 10.
| Editor LIGHT:
The report of Superintendent Smith
to the school board, published in the
LIGHT, is incorrect, and l charge that
gentleman with having made such a
report knowingly, wilfully and for
purpose. Has the school board
lowered the standard for pupils
promotions? When? Certainly not
during the last scholastic year; not
up to the end of June, the time when
pupils were examined and promoted.
The minimum required for promotion
was Is per cent. How, then, does
Mr.. Smith dare assume a different
standard and base his report for the
past year upon it? Has he a right to
lower the standard as he pleases? If
SO, what would prevent him next
year to decree so per cent a sufficient
criterion of pupils knowledge, in
order to cover his own inefficiency as
superinte ndent, and to make good
showing on paper.
What a wonderful inconsistency
there is in Mr.. Smith. 1t is not long
since that this same Mr.. Smith stub
bornIy refused young lady permits
sion to graduate, because she had
fallen a fraction below the required
standard of IS per cent; especially as
the young lady had no connection
with the press or with any one of the
leading politicians. But now, hardly
six weeks after, in order to hide his
inefficiency and lack of system, he
arbitrarily lowers that very same
standard, hoping, by thus screwing
up the figures, to appear in some
what more favorable light and to de-
ceive the public. And yet, after all,
what a poor showing. Out of 2,49S
pupils according to his own
report, nearly one thousand failed,
and if Mr.. Smith had re-
tanned the original, prescribed stan
dard, this number, large as it is,
should have swelled on to over twelve
hundred failures or so per cent of the
entire number of pupils examined.
Verify, verify, it takes such men as at
present compose that august body,
called school board. to express salts
faction at such poor results! Risum
teneatis amici! And they did express
their satisfaction. l wonder what
reputation a physician would enjoy,
80 per cent of whose patients invari
ably die? Do you think that the par
ents and relatives of the deceased
would meet in convention and give
thanks and express their satisfaction,
unless they be either fools or knaves?
Rise, o ye citizens of San Antonio,
and rid yourselves of such an
aimless superintendent, of such con-
venient school board, and, before all.
of that incubus the czar, and master
of both superintendent and school
board, or, before long every little city
in Texas will look with contempt up
on our public schools, once our pride,
but now the trampled field of unscru-
pulous politicians. ;. .. G.

not follow that there is any lack of en-

bers of the church and Sunday school on
the Monday evening following Easter.
Several hundred of his parishioners as

Mr.. and Mrs. Blanchard were affection
ately greeted by their parishioners and
presented with an elegant picture and an
envelope containing handsome sum of
money. Mr.. @. s. Fobes, the Superin-

pleasantly recognized on the occasion.

The sociable referred to in our last let

diminished the attendance of those living
at long distances from the church. How
ever, surprisingly large number were
present, and the occasion was in every
way social and enjoyable. After a pray
or, and few words of welcome by the
pastor, an excellent program Of music,
vocal and instrumental, and Rotations
were rendered, and ample refreshments
were served. The people were much
pleased with the result, and it is safe to
predict that party which the two Sum

Plum street vestry, the latter part of
April, will be we'll attended. Easter was
a very enjoyable day. A large audience
was present, the church was handsomely

recitations and songs by the Sunday
school, were finely rendered. AS an in

Easter services at the Church of Our

ences. Three were taken into the fellow
ship of the church, coming from the Epis-
copal communion. The membership of
the church now stands at 1856, and the
number of families 357. An impressive
communion service was participated in
by many orthodox brethren, and a life.

A remarkably pleasant Easter is the
word from this parish. Church filed.
An unusually fine musical program,
while the floral decorations were elabor-
ate and exquisite. The morning sermon
was from Phil. i. 81: For me to die is
gain" The thought of the speaker was
to show the Immortal life as the only
adequate explanation of mans nature,
and the need of continued existence to
round out and complete the imperfect
life here begun" Five members were sd-
mitted to the church. The Sunday school
had delightful surprise in the form of

niicent and from many people requests
have come to have it repeated next Sun
day. The Bay City OommanderY of
Knights Templar attended in a body.
The subject of the sermon was the En-
ergy OF Spiritual Power" So great was
the throDg that the ushers could take no
collection, or our offering for the day
would have been much larger. The floral

Hillsdale.
A special service was held on April l.,
consisting of responsive readings, inter-

by the choir. A sermon appropriate to
the occasion was delivered. The plat
form was decorated in fine taste with a
collection of beautiful plants in full
bloom. Excellent audiences were In at

church membership, yet the indications
re good that there will be in the near
future. Interest in the larger faith still
continues to increase.

The day of rejoicing was observed by
the church at this place by sermon on
the resurrection, followed by the COM
munion. Mr.. J. 81. Bently made some
very appropriate remarks in the Sunday

added to the library. Every department
of work in the society is in excellent con-

Lansing and Charlotte.
Rev. J. H. Palmer is to go to Lansing
and Rev. w. W. Clayton has been sup
plying at Charlotte It is presumed that
this latter arrangement will be perma-
nent and some $500 less expense to the
society come from it. No special Easter
service was held at either place, but judge
that appropriate sermons we're preached
and good audiences in attendance. Br.
Palmer reports a good time with Br.
Gibbs at Concord, and although we have
heard nothing from this parish or Liber-
ty, still we venture to say that a success
full and helpful day greeted both.
