SCHOOL TERM EXAMINATIONS.
Names of Those Successful, and
Names of Examiners.

Names oil Examiners.
The results of the term exami-
nations held throughout the coun-
ty, April 11t9, show that there
we're forty-fve applicants, thirty
four of whom passed.
These examinations serve a
double purpose: First they serve
to test the pupils as to their
knowledge of the branches, pre-.
scribed in the course of study
laid down for the schools in the
county, and, second, they serve
as guide to the teachers exami-
nations. Those who pass this ex-
animation with a fair average and
attend a summer school thereaf-
ter, making good use of their time
should be able to make a very fair
showing in the teachers exami.
nation.
The greatest danger attending
these spring examinations lies in
the fact that too often very young
pupils are pushed ahead too
strongly in the hope of passing;
they pass with narrow margin,
are too young to teach, and are
unable to go away to school; they
feel they have completed the work
Of the public schools and thus
drop out of school entirely.
Last year the age required of
applicants for teachers certifi.
Gates was seventeen, and, in view
of the fact that the Minimum Sal
airy Bill will become a law, and
consequently, more applicants
from which to select, this stand
ard is more likely to raise than
lower.
NJ girl or boy should be allow
ed to drop from the public school
unless prepared and able to at
tend another school, until they
have reached the age Of woman
hood or manhood; they should not
be induced to remain at home in
ldleuess, waiting until they are
old enough to make a living for
themselves.
Those who failed this spring
average in age only a little more
than fifteen. Pupils so young as
this can well afford to spend more
time in the public schools.
The following shows the num-
Der of pupils who passed the ex-
animation in the several town
