Municipal government. and we
sometimes think Smyrna should get
in line, has been vastly improved by
the adoption Of centralized system,
such as the commission plan and the
city manager plan. which gives power
to do business, expeditiously and
economically. to men who are definite
~ responsible to the people. And
now this plan is being adopted IN the
matter of county government in Ne W
York State. The reason it has not
been brought sooner is that the people
have paid little attention to the coun-
ty as a unit Of government. IL is a
hsalthful sign. therefore. that con-
ference for Better County Government
in New York State was held at
Schenectady last fall. and that such
organizations as the American Judi
eature Society and the National Short
Ballot Association have undertaken
special studies Of the county from
their spec al points Of view for the

better in coming years. The people
will continue to give il their support

Editor and Publisher.

The public schools Of Smyrna and
Kent county opened last week for
1856 scholastic year and hundreds
of children left their homes daily
for instruction by the various teachers
Upon these teachers a very grave re-
sponsibility rests. in that to their care
and training is given the future gen.
erations. Teachers can never expect
to be a real success unless they bring
the right spirit to their work. II
they undertake it from merely sordid
considerations. with no appreciation
of the fact that their profession offers
them not only the means of obtaining
a good livelihood. but also a channel
through which they may greatly bene-
ft mankind. and win the lasting re-
speet of the generation; if they enter
upon their work with no thought Of
this ennobling fact. the chances
that they will worthily fulfill their
duties are small. The true teachers
should bring to their work an ear
nest. faithful. enthusiastic. spprec-
iative spirit-a spirit that yearns
above a.. things to be Useful to their
race; that places self-seeking and
gain far beneath the upright. consis-
tent adherence to duty; that can see
the stamp Of honor and promise upor
the most unlovely child. and is able

wealth. but to be able to say. whel
