years the wise. thoughtful and experienced
men among Us have known that Vermont
aas falling behind her sister states in the
matter Of her schools and that the children
of the smaller towns especially were sutier
iug from this unfortunate state Of things
Various efforts were made 70 correct and
improve our system. but none Of them met
with success, largely from the failure Of
the people as whole 70 realize the true
state # things The final outcome Is this
new Law which now goes on trial, and the
first step under which was taken at the
annual March meetings in the election Of
members Of the county board Of education
Il Is not claimed that the new law Is per
feet measure Time and experience will
undoubtedly show numerous changes which
are required The essential thing Is that
it have fair and honest trial in competent
hands from the start The making Of this
trial viii rest very largely in the hands Of
the county supervisors. and hence the i'm
portauce Of wise and conscientious choice
9f these officials, as our correspondents
point out
The Office will be delicate and difficult

will be somewhat complicated by the fact
that the law requires them % give their ell
