SCHOOL NOTES.
2 all 1afk hoo 70
all parents having pupils in the highest
grades.
Shiloh, N. ]. Sept. 2S, 1900.
Dear Sir:-At the last meeting of the
Board of Trustees we appointed COM
mittee to grade the Hopewell Township
Schools so as to relieve the teacher in
your district of so much ungraded work
and to give all the benefit of the high
school course instituted at Shiloh last
year.
We hereby offer you one dollar per
month for transporting your child in the
highest grade to Shiloh. We strongly
recommend that all in the highest grade
in your district take up with this offer,
otherwise no benefit will come to your
home school as the teachers will be re
lieved of none of their present work.
We suggest that by coming together
each parent furnishing conveyance for
a week, the trouble would be minimlzed
while the payment to each would be the
same, provided always that the payment
will be in direct proportion to the attend
ance of your scholar.
Should the plan not be understood the
committee will be pleased to furnish fur
ther information.
By order of the committee, Messrs Bon-
ham, Ayars, Davis.
Yours Truly,
w. w. Sheppard.
The fartherest district was offered $1.0O
the nearer ones $3.50. and 80 go per month
per pupil. Those within the two mile
limit have no extra inducements to at
tend the graded township school. Unless
this offer be accepted and acted upon
there will be no Improvement in the sew
en- district schools unless another teacher
is employed in each.
