Superintendent Notes.

Examination for Teachers
Certificates will be held in
Meade January 18th and 10Th.
We are giving the teachers
this opportunity of earning cred
it for higher grade certificate.
Grades of go per cent or over,
earned in this examination may
be carried and credited on your
certificates next summer. Thus
the teachers may carry fewer
subjects during the institution
and will do it much better.
Some things l have learned
while visiting schools / have
estimated that about Is to 80 per
cent of the pupils in the rural
school districts are not attending
school, or are attending only
part of the time. Many of these
are above the truancy age. A
few live a long distance from
school and we find it difficult to
reach them all. My dear tax
payer, do you realize what this
means? You are paying for
something you do not get. You
are taxing yourself to support a
school, then allowing your boys
and girls to grow up in ignor-
ace. Don't lay the blame on the
teacher She can not keep your
child interested if he is absent
half of the time. And it is hard
to teach a small school: there is
no rivalry or enthusiasm. Par
ents, send your children to school
every day during the school and
you will have better results.
Then, there is to little atten-
ton given to plays and gamesfor
the children. Parents should
help the teacher in providing
plays and games, even if costs a
few cents, the money is well
spent. If proper attention is
given to sports the boys and
girls will be eager to go to
school. They will be happy and
contented at their work and
quarrelS and trouble will vanish.
President Taft says, 81 think
every city is under the strong
est obligation to its people to
furnish TO the children from the
time they begin to walk till they
reach manhood, places within
the city walls large enough and
laid out in proper form, for the
playing of all sorts of games
which are known to our boys
and girls and are liked by them. F"
Another author says this of
truancy. Every truant on the
streets is living proof that
there is leak in our system of
education; and every peniten-
tiary and reform school is mon
ument to that leak"
There is to much of book
learning and to little of practical
things taught. The Agrlcul-
tural Collegesand Manual Train
ing schools are gaining in popu-
lar favor. Our teachers must
soon teach agriculture. The
tyschools of Cincinnati realiz-
ing this have opened shops for
training, and every boy and girl

Its outlet into the MILESTONE river,

of the work will be done before the
close of this year.

Little Scioto improvement matter, the
most important of the kind ever be-
fore Marion county board of COM
missioners, now in hand, the commits
sioners were too busy 20 take up the
Ququa at this time.
BY improving the Ququa ditch,
hundreds of acres of farm land in the
southern part of the county will be
greatly benefited. The ditch in its
present condition. Is so completely
clogged with underbrush and debris
and is so narrow and crooked at
many points that II is of little use as
drain. Innumerable tile drains on
many farms through which the Ququa
passes have this little stream for an
outlet. AS 1t now stand the ditch does
not carry off the water coming
through these drains. The Ququa
passes through what Is known as one
of the most fertile and most import
ant farm districts in the county and
greatly to the productiveness of the
district.
The ditch will be improved with "a
inch tile to a point 1000 feet south
of the city and will be open the re-
mainder of the distance. Six miles
of branch drains will be constructed
with Ququa as their outlet. County
Surveyor Ault. has not compiled his
estimate of the probable cost, which
will be met by assessments against
the benefited property.
The commissioners postponed the
final hearing, this afternoon. until
August End. when the matter will DC
again taken up and disposed of.
