The Schools of Logan.


Editor Logqn County Banner:
If you viii allow me space in
your paper | will write a few
words in regard to ourfree schools.
The people are aware Of the in
sufficient number of teachers and
the poor qualifications of the ma
jority of the same. Now what is
the cause of this? Every intelli-
gent citizen can answer. Low
wages and easy examinations.
Numberone certificates at the
next examination will be good for
four years, and the Board will not
grant them to any but good, COM
petent teachers, who are qualified
and willing to teach a number one
school. The cry is everywhere
! over the county that our schools
are not what thew ought to be.
We all know this; we also know
the people in general are not
what they ought to be. We make
ourselves what we are; SO do we
make our schools what they are.
One man or one class OF. men can
| do but little. They must all work
together.
If the Examiners raise thequa
ifications of teachers and the
Boards of Education fail to in
crease the wages, our schools
(many of them) will go untaught,
and if the wages are increased and
our examinations remain so easy
that amere boy, from some OF our
rural schools. can get a certificate,
our schools will be taught by in
competent teachers who will do
bat little or no good. =
There are three new branches
added this year to the curriculum
and it costs something to prepare
properly to teach the new branch
es. Then why not, as the new
branches are added, and as more
are demanded of our teachers, in
crease their salary? Each Board
of Education in the county should
raise the wages of number one
teachers to not less than $40 per
month. Then there wonld be
some indncement to teachers to
prepare for their work.
He who would be successful
doctor, lawyer or minister must
keep pos Ell by reading the literf,-
ture of his profession. Therefore
he who would be an educator
must drink at the fountain of
knowledge; must read education
al journals.
Every one has a work to do.
Then let every one do something
this year to advance the cause of
education, and let us try and get
rid of SO much ignorance and
crime with which our county is,
infested.
! would like to hear from some
of the Boards Of Education con-
corning better salaries for teach
ers. r. L. BARKER.

Climatic Changes.

The changes of terrestrial climate
have been many and various. Myrtles
and tree ferns once dourished in Green
land; coral insects built on the shores of
Melville island; naatiluses sailed over
what must then have been the tepid seas
about Spitzbergen. But with the lapse
of ages the scene changed, and worse
than arctic rigors spread into regions
now enjoying temperate climate. Pos
sibly not for the first time. The Per-
milan was certainly an Indictment age,
and its inclemency seems even to have
reached the point of glaciation in the
west of England and Ireland, yet it was
preceded and succeeded by long prev
alence of tropical conditions.
These assuredly reigned without. in.
terruption, in north temperate and polar
regions throughout the vast expanse of
Tertiary time. Palms and cycads then
sprang up in the room of oaks and
beeches in England; turtles and croco-
dies haunted English rivers and estu-
aries; lions, elephants and hyenas
roamed at large over English dry land

True Courtesy.

On one occasion Robert Browning's
son had hired a room in peighboring
house, in order to exhibit his pictures
there, and during the temporary absence
of the artist, Mr.. Browning was doing
the honors to room full of fashionable
friends.
He was standing near the door when
an unannounced visitor made her APP
pearance, and of course he shook hands
with her, greeting her as he had the
other arrivals.
"Oh, | beg your pardon" she exclaim-
ed, ''but, please, sir, I'm the cook. Mr..
Barrett asked me to come and see his
pictures"
"And am very glad to see you," re-
turned Mr. Browning, with ready
courtesy. Take my arm, and | will
show you round. Temple Bar.

Courtship In China.

A curious custom prevails at Huay
ning-hsien, in Kwangsi On the fiji
teenth day of the first month in each
year all the young ladies and gentlemen
take walk to the Yen-yen mountain.
Each damsel carries little box, which
she deposits at the foot of the hill. Any
young gentleman DESTROYS of entering
the bonds of matrimony may select one
of the boxes and take it away with him,
whereupon the fair owner of the box
makes herself known and an acquaint-
anceship is thus formed III assorted
matches are not likely to occur, as this
custom is observed only among the well
to do classes of society. -Schnitzel und

Paving a Debt.

The celebrated French poet, Saint
Folk, who, in spite of his large income.
was always in debt, sat one day in y
BARRIERS shop waiting to be shaved. He
was lathered, when the door opened and
a tradesman entered who happened to
be one of the poets largest creditors
No sooner did this man see Saint-Foix
than he angrily demanded his money.
The poet composedly begged him not to
make scene.
won't you wait for the money until
am shavedg
Certainly said the other, pleased at
the prospect.
Saint-Foix then made the barber a
witness of the agreement and imme-
diately took towel, wiped the lather
from his face and left the shop. He
wore beard to the end of his days
