REPORT ON SCHOOLS
BY SUPERINTENDENT
Recommendations Made to
the Board by Professor
Dumas

During the last six years our public
schools have grown to such a degree
from 598 in 1904-5 to almost 800 at
present that it has been necessary
from time to time to duplicate grade,
until now all the grades below the 9th
are duplicate. One section of the 9Th,
however, has been in the same room
with 4th Grade A, both being in charge
of one teacher. This section of the
9Th has enrolled this year IA pupils
and the regular 9Th, 81 pupils, together
making rs. These, with the number
turned away for lack Of room, would
run the total Up to so at least-enOugh
5th grades for two teachers. there
fore recommend that the 9Th Grade he
divided and teacher be put in charge
OF each section This would necessi-
tate the employment OF an additional
teacher.
If this plan is adopted, another room
will be necessary, and consequently, as
all our rooms are now lull, dpOtheI
grade, third probably, would have
to be moved to the old academy. Now
would this plan solve our problem
satisfactorily, for, having four grades
in the high school, this fourth class
must have room for it except the
superintendent Office a place little
larger than a closet.
In view Of these facts, it seems to me
that the best plan would be to move
the high school to the old academy
and bring back the two grades located
there to the main school building.
These with the newly created 9th grade
would lust fill the house, No further
expansion is possible. The old acad-
envy would just accommodate our four
high school classes with enough seat
/ ing space to spare to insure our ex-
! pansion oneor two years. WHAT then?
| Our school system will be full grown
and can expand no more.

OF this plan: /. The High School be-
ing to itself would gain in individuali-
ty and no longer seem to be merged
with the grades. A pupil promoted to
the high school and having to attend
in separate building would feel more
wildly that he had taken step up
ward and be imbued with greater
enthusiasm for his school and pride
in its success. 2. The maintenance OF
good order and discipline in both the
High School and the grades would be
easier, most of the violations of school
rules being traceable to reactions be-
tween high school pupils and the
graders, the latter trying to initiate
bad pupils in the upper classes. 3
The principal OF the High School
would then be principal indeed, and
not in name. He would be response
bic for the discipline and feel that he
occupied a more Independent position
than heretofore, with corresponding
increase Of pride and interest in the
school 5 The superinter dent, if the
Board will supply another teacherin the
High School, can still retain his office
at the main building and make daily
visits to the High School, directing
the work there as heretofore, bat de-
voting most of his time to the super
vision of the primary and grammar
grades.
| recommend that the Board elect a
teacher of science to take the place OF
the superintendent in that department,
SO that the superintendent may be re-
leased for the discharge oil the i'm
portant duties Of supervision. The
revenues arising from the increase OF
numbers in the High School will with
out doubt be sufficient 10 pay the
salary OF this additional teacher.
Despite some difficulties encountered
which have tended to lower our
attendance, working under our new
course Of study, and the departmental
plan, we have achieved greater success
than in any previous year.
The Marietta High School now
stands for Thorough preparation, high
ideals, and ranks among the best, be-
ing one in a group Of seventeen high
schools in the State making eighteen
units, or more

Northern Brazil.
! Mr.. Edward II. Cooper's article
on South America and his refer
ence to its poisonous snakes re-
mind me Of an interesting adven-
ture of friend of mine in northern
Brazil.
My friend was making a collec-
ton of the poisonous snakes of the
neighborbood, and as every one
round us was aware of the fact
many gifts of the kind were offered
to him. One evening he was writ
ing at table in our hut when
local person brought him small
living specimen of one of the most
deadly poisonous snakes of the
neighborhood. My friend, who was
very busy, asked him to put it in a
glass jar on the table, which was
accordingly doEe.
Unfortunately the hot night and
other soporifc influences proved too
much for my friends waking pow
ers. He went to sleep with his head
on the table and slept peacefully
till awakened by a fearful crash.
He had Knocked the table over.
with the lamp on it; the lamp had
naturally been put out, and, as his
senses slowly returned, the awak-
ened sleeper remembered that the
glass jar also had fallen to the floor
and the snake must now be loose.
Obviously the best thing to do
was to jump on the bed and shout
for help and light. But the hut
was empty, and no help came. One
could not spend the night standing
on bed roaring for help; so, as
there was only a space. Of about
eight feet between him and the
door, the snake collector jumped
down from the bed, resolved to
MAKE a rush for it. He had taken
his boots off at an early part of the
evening, and as he jumped he felt a
sharp, vicious nip in the heel of his
right foot.
My friend was a person with plen-
ty of cool presence of mind. A serv-
ant entered the hut at the mo-
ment. He summoned him, told him
curtly that he had not five minutes
to live and proceeded to dictate
will and various directions to his
travelling companion and one or two
other persons. But death tarried
an unaccountably long time, and
presently the reason of this became
apparent. The snake was curled up
in a far corner of the room, sway
ing and Kissing angrily, and my
friend had jumped off the bed on
to a piece of the broken glass with
which the floor of his room was
literally strewn.-London Saturday
