THE PUBLIC SCHOOL FUND.
Circular Letter to the School Directors
of the State.

Circular Letter to the School Directors
of the State.
The distribution of the surplus
in the State treasury on Decem-
Der 81, 1903, gives to the public
schools of the State an increase Of
funds amounting to 35 cents per
capita.
1t is earnestly hoped that this
evidence of interest on the part of
the governor and the legislature
will be met with an increased in
terest by the county courts and
school officers.
We need longer terms and bet
ter primary schools, and I trust
that you will see that the money
is used to supply these needs.
Employ no one to teach in these
public schools that does not love
little children and is not thorough
ly qualified. Professional knowl-
edge and high order Of attain
ments are absolutely necessary.
The primary teacher should be
the best teacher in the school sys-
tenn.
AS a rule, directors should not
buy maps, charts, libraries, ETC.,
from travelling agents. To meet
their heavy expenses, they must
charge much more than the pub
fishers would charge if bought di-
rect. Then, while these things
may be good, their use is often
wholly impracticable in the aver
age school room.
I again urge that the State and
county money be used SO far as
possible to lengthen the school
term and employ only competent
teachers.
You will be furnished with
blanks by your county superin-
tendents on which you Will report
ten days before the close of each
quarter complete list of all war
rants issued for salaries and other
purposes. These lists will be com
pared with the trustees report of
warrants paid.
The district director is one of
the most important officers elected
by the people. You are charged
with the care of the educational
interests of the children of your
district. The future citizenship
of the State will be determined by
the manner in which you discharge
this trust.
Let us make this year 1904 men,
orable by agreat Improvement in
our public schools.
Very truly yours,
SEYMOUR A. MYNDERs.

appeared so completely and mysteri.
ously that suicide is feared, especially
as strange pistol shorts were heard
about that time in the outskirts Of the
town.
The fears for Mr.. Probert's Life
held by his townsmen and the deposi.
tors in his bank are founded upon the
probable effects upon his mind Of the
various stories concerning his char
achter which have been circulated
for the past few days, spread broad
cast apparently by some unknown en-
emy working in the dark to destroy
Mr.. Probert's business reputation.
But Dayton itself believes in Mr..
Probert and believes in him so i'm.
plicitly that no attempt has yet been
made to open the locked vault OF the
bank and investigate the affairs Of the
institution.
Mr.. Probert slept in a room in the
rear Of the bank proper. When he did
not appear at the hotel for breakfast
as usual this morning, J. w. Fishburn
the proprietor OF the hotel, went to
the bank to arouse him. Several at
tempts proved frultless, and finally
Mr.. Fishburn called Marshal Earl and
