Mrs. Laul q Dodd has been teach
ing in the public schools for many
years, and in the same community
for several consecutive years. We
found her at the head of her little
family of boys and girls, about twen-
ty in number, discoursing to them the
rudiments Of spelling, reading, writ
ing, arithmetic, grammar and geogra-
ply, in such a, way that they will
carry some of her instructions to
their graves. These instructions
will, no doubt, lay the foundation
for many lives of usefulness.
Mrs. Rosa A. Schroder's school
was our next stopping place. Here
we found her earnestly laboring with
the children of the Wolf Stake
school. She was attempting to make
the exchange of the old books for
the new. She informed lis that the
people were rather reluctant in Civ
ing up the old "Blue Back"
Next we find Mr.. Robt. l.. Boggs
in the midst of few pupils, work
ing assiduously in teaching the key
x the spelling book, reading and
arithmetic. Too many teachers are
satisfied in teaching the above named
branches and nothing else. The
law requires that "orthography,
reading, writing, arithmetic, geogra-
ply, English grammar, history of
the United States and of this State,
the principles Of the Constitution
and laws of the United States and
of this State, morals and good be-
havior," shall be Taught in the COM
mon schools. Teachers, impress
upon your patrons the Importance of
studying these branches. THE lao
