An Ever Present Danger.

In some parts of New England they
arc discussing the question Of providing
free breakfasts for some Of the children

The Kew Bedford Standard IN dis

just as necessary for the child 10 have
decent dinners and suppegs as to have
decent breakfasts; and necessary also for
il to have suitable clothing. and q COM
Portable and wholesome place in which

The Paw Of Teachers.

IN another column we print e. polite
communication from Mr.. Julian a. Bur.
russ principal Of the Leigh School,
In roply to some remarks Of ours cou.
corning tito pay Of teachers MI Sur
russ thinks that some of tho statements
which we have made may have caused
misrepresentation III the minds Of some
OF our readers. First Of all no sta,es
that the teachers in Richmond really
begin their work between $40 and S:A5
In tho morning and continue practically
withedut intermissfon until 1850 In the Of.
ternoon, and that even then their work Is
not done. but that they have many duties
to perform out Of hours. Moreover. he
makes the point that apart from tho
mental strain in the school room, the
conscientious teacher is subject to great
mental strain out Of school In planning
how, he or she can best promote the In.
terests of&the pupils. .
we arc not unmindful of all these con-
siderations, and nobody.wlo understands
THE Times Dispatch can have formed
the conclusion that We think that the
teachers Of the public schools Of Vir-
glnla arc fairly compensated for the
work which they do. It is, indeed.
laborous life, and it is full OF worries
and Responsibilities, and the pay is 50
small that very few men take up teach
ing as an occupation
Yet the fact remains that teachers are
employed fewer hours than workers IN
most other occupations, The Richmond
teachers are employed longer than the
teucliers IN the rural districts. and 1t
may be stated in furtherance OF our ar
gument that they are better paid than the
rural teachers. But the average school
term In Virginia is We believe, less than
five months, and it is simply out Of the
question that persons who work for rye
months In the year, five days In the week,
and five or six hours each day. should
expect to receive pay for full years
work This. as we stated In the original
article, is through no fault OF the
teachers, but through the fault Of the
system. AS for the worry, responsibility
and care of the teachers life, they are
no greater, we imagine, than the worry,
responsibility and care OF the editor
life, yet the editor manages to get along
with two or three weeks vacation during
the year.
We have not said, rs Mr.. Burruss
seems to think that it would be practl-
cable to keep the schools of Richmond
omen all the year. What We did say was
that the system was faulty because in
the city OF Richmond we have large
plant with a full corps of officers.
! teachers. janitors and so on, yet the
| city docs not keep the plant going half
the time, VIC also snid that there ough!
| To be some way of utilizing these public
school buildings ana their complement OF
officers, teachers and Jantors to the full
| capacity. IF so. we should get
a better interest OH our Investment
and officers and teachers would receive
more compensation
or course, there Is nothing unfriendly
to tho teachers in this discussion. On the
contrary, We are trying to ascertain II
there is not some way by which the
teachers can put in more time, as mans
OF them we know would be glad 10 do
and so increase tncll. Gay,
