A Plea for Better School Houses
To the Editor of the TINES:

To the Editor of the TINES:
Tho suggestions for improvement
in our educational system are very
timely. The one to extend the terms
Of the schools 10 . good one, but would
It be practicable in most communities? !?
It Il . deplorsble fact that the coun-
Try children spend 30 little time in
the schools. Either from necessity or
como other reason, four or five months
10 ab'ut all the time that some if
not the maj j,rity of them are spared
from the farms for the purpose of at
tending school, 90 if the terms we're
sxtended to six or eight months, it
would mean very little to those who
vere unable to attend, and they would
be tho very ones who need education
most. Considering these things it
does not seem that an extended term
10 tho best improv ,ment just now.
Why not let the improvement be-
gin on the school ho,tses' Make them
thoroughly comfortable; let them be
oeiled or plastered abandon the old
style Enthusiastically those without
baeks-with from six to a dozen pu-
pills crowded on one seat, humping
over their books and states or trying
to write holding pen and paper all at
tho same time; instead, put in modern
desks or substitute 80 that the pupils
can be separated, not more than two
on . seat, with some arrangement for
holding or for writing. Stretch a
blackboard half way around the room.
Let the heating arrangement be per-
feet with good smoke outlet to pre-.
won't the room from being filled with
smoke as is sometimes the case. A
slight touch Of paint is not out of order.
Mako the school house one of the
most attractive places in the com
munity whore children will like to go
and not consider the going hardship.
OF course all this cannot be done
in one year, but little done every
year will soon amount to q great deal.
When this has been done, it will be a
time more suitable for extending
terms, employing better methods of
teaching, etc. 1t is not an exaggera
tion to say that the furnishings of
some Of the country school houses are
. disgrace to the State.
In the opinion Of the writer, the
best improvement for the country
schools is that which will give the
best advantages tor obtaining an edu,
cation in the least time; and putting
the school house in order, is a good
step in that direction.

Concerning ohr Public Schools.
(From the Baptist Courier.)

In examining the Thirtieth Annual
Report of the State Superintendent of
Education, / was impressed with the
present conditions Of the cause of ed
ucation. While 1 was very much
gratified to learn from the tables that
there has been a steady progress in
the cause of education in the State,
yet l was sorry to learn that there has
been 30 little interest taken in educa-
ton.
Being interested in and anxious 10
help promote the cause of education,
l shall ask all into whose hands these
few lines may fall, to 60 with me for
q few moments into the examination
of some statistics, and thus form q
better idea of the educational condi.
tion in the State; and I trust that we
all, seeing such needed attention, will
holp. in such ways as we can, to i'm
prove the present condition.
Turning the tables, we find that
there has been an average increase in
enrolment of 5000 per annum; that
1,14S school houses have been built,
and that there has been a large in
crease in the number of male teachers,
especially white teachers, during the
past eight years, there being now
1882 male teachers, of which the
majority are white. But we learn,
with regret, that large number OF
the school houses are unfit to to teach
in, and that, very few are wholly suf
feient and properly equipped, that
the average time of the schools in the
State is only 4 10 months, and that
the percentage of pupils studying
geography, history, grammar, etc,
and the higher branches continues to
grow smaller.
The Jack of school buildings, both
as to number and kind, especially the
latter, the lack of financial support,
and the lack of interest otherwise
manifested is the chief cause of both
the short term and the decrease in the
above named percentage.
L think that if We all, prompted
from sense of duty, would make
more efforts to show to the people the
condition OF the schools in the State.
and that this cause should be second
to none (since, upon the rearing of its
youth depends the condition of the
State, social, financial, etc., it would
inspire them, j. Q. the masses (for
scme are now more or less loyal sup
porters of the cause,) to greater efforts
for the proper training ofour children.
One great drawback is that the peo
pie generally don't take enough in
terest in the erection and equipment
Of school buildings. If they would
only divide their attention, financial
and otherwise, between scho Is ., ne
tne hand and their daily business on

Gladstonie's Peculiar Eyes.

There is an anecdote in Blackwood's
of Gladstone and Professor Blackie
which confirms the story Of the states
mans eaglelike eyes. At q dinner the
two men were opposite, and when
Gladstone gave in a forcible way his
idea that Homer was no longer recited
but chanted, the professor cried out,
"Mr. Gladstone, I don't believe a word
Of it" Then he rose to argue the mat
ter and said n sentence. but got no
further. He had met G~ladstone's gaze
and seen his outer eyelids widened to
their fullness in a steady glare. and his
tongue stumbled and he sank back into
his chair in confusion. The writer con-
cludes:
go to the zoo for it. Take your
umbrella. Make your way to the place
where the eagles. vultures. falcons and
such like creatures blink on their
perches. Select a bird. Stare at him
with insult, and you will see the outer
lids expand as Mr.. G%ladstone's did.
Poke at him with your umbrella. The
flmy vertical lids through which he
looks at the sun and opens to ~paralyze
his prey will part, and Their you will
see what Blackie saw and understand
his feelings"

Not the Advice Expected.

After spending more than a quarter
OF a century in active business life in
the city a certain merchant purchased
a ranch which he considers to be ad-
mirably adapted for dairy farming.
Having had no practical training in
agricultural pursuits, he is dependent
for his knowledge of the art upon
those books which purport to tell the ur-
ban bred how to do the trick. He desires
to learn all he can concerning dairying
and for advice betOok himself to his
friend and pastor, Rev. DIR. Stebbins,
in whose omniscience and wide read
ing he has absolute confidence.
DO YOU know anything good on
milk, doctor?" he asked the venerable
nan Of God.
The jovial pulpiteer, who knows
more Of the sincere milk Of the word"
than Of any other lacteal fluid, an
swered solemnly:
"ies, my dear sir, l believe l am
familiar with the best thing on milk
that al be found anywhere"
"What is it, doctor!" eagerly and
unsuspectingly asked the budding
rancher.
