An excellent addition is found in the
annual report of the auditors of the town
this year, which is of much interest to
everyone who cares for the future welfare
of our state or country, and that is re-
port of school directors. Before the town
system was adopted, one must visit every
school in town to learn anything of its con-
dition, for no one heard the annual report
of the superintendent, unless he attended
town meeting, and those attending were
usually too much engaged in other town
matters to get very good idea of the work
being done. This printed report, with the
standing of those named in the eXamina-
ton, will do much to incite the scholars to
good work. Children, like their elders,
are led very much farther than they can be
driven, and nothing has better effect than
to see that their herd study is appreciated
by others.
