care of school grounds and explana-
tons as to school laws.
State Superintendent of Schools w.
w. Stetson advocates the appointment
of a State board of examiners, whose
duty it should be to provide for the ex-
animation Of all persons who desire to
teach.
These examinations, he says, should
be held at such times as will give per
sons who desire to teach an opportu-
nifty to demonstrate their fitness to en-
gage in the work. They should not be,
from the profession a large number Of
those who are now teaching. but they
should be of such a character as to
prevent those who are grossly unfit for
the work from remaining in the SER
vice, and should be of such increasing
thoroughness that those who are but
partially prepared for their duties will
see the wisdom of more thorough prep
aratior. or the necessity of leaving the
profession.
Mr. Stetson is also of the opinion that
the country schools should be graded
Experience has made it clear he says
that it is as easy to grade a rural as
city school. The only danger lies in
making the divisions too numerous, and
attempting to DO too much in the way
Of details.
