of Schools for Bellows Falls.

Superintendent of Schools for Bellows Falls.
We recommend careful perusal of the
following communication by all who are in
terested in maintaining high standard in
our public schools:
The argument in favor of modern super
vision of schools is well understood in
Bellows Falls no one questions the posi-
tive benefits which have followed in every
New England town where special super
visor has been engaged. Any store or
mill in which twenty or more people find
employment demands supervision not more
than the work of our twenty-five teachers.
1t would be very hard to find instances
where towns have, after electipg super
intendent, gone back to the old way of no
supervision.
Bellows Falls will have to face this ques-
ton in the near future and if the town
pursues the progressive policy which has
marked her course in the past in school
affairs, there can be only one answer,
| namely, that we must have supervision
The modern superintendent must be a
| specialist who devotes his time to the de-
tails of grade work he must be able to tel
bis teachers Just what is being done in the
best schools of the country in any particu-
lar branch; he should be able to take any
class in any grade and give the teacher q
practical illustration of the best methods
he must in all his work be ready to dc
much more than merely suggest. Thi.
means that he have time to visit the school.
of other towns, attend any gatherings O
an educational nature in his own state Of
in other states and in general be able tt
give his whole attention to bis special work
gathering his ideas OF helpfulness from al
AVAILABLE sources as already indicated. We
certainly would never be satisfied witt
anything short of standard of excellence
which would bring us into favorable notice
among the better towns of our state.
There is one consideration which ha'
made i; possible for us to defer the ques
ton of supervision and yet feel that we arr
not tagging far behind other towns in tn,
quality of our schools. This is the individ
ual excellence of our teachers. Owing
largely to the good judgment of MIR. Rydel
we have teachers who are well acquainted
with modern methods and who withou
supervision are able to produce unusually
good results. Bellows Falls is fortunat,
too, in being far enough from Boston t.
escape the constant loss ofits best teachers

trouble in many Massachusetts, towns.
The partial solution of the question o
supervision by requiring the principal o.
the high school to devote part of his time
to this work is a makeshift which canno,

Down a Fifty-Foot Bank.

While bicycling Thursday evening, Flint
Elder, 10 years of age, of Maiden, Mass,
who is spending his summer vacation with
his grandparents, Mr.. and Mrs. Wyman
Flint, had the sad misfortune to go down
the bank, wheel and all, just to the north
of the four pines on the Rockingham road,
landing on the bed of the railway beneath,
and breaking the bones in one wrist and
badly cutting his face and head. The
injuries, however, are not serious, and in
due time the young man will be able to
ride his wheel again. The case was
attended by Drs. Matthews and Campbell.

is now using is almost impossible and
that upon the completion OF the new
