the high school attendance there to-
day is 400. There is a tendency to-
day to value education more than
ever before.
Mr.. Burrill stated that he was glad
to find that the Board OF Education
had done what seemed to him very
wise thing, in placing special empha-
sis on the superintendent of the pri-
mary grades. He said that Augusta
was to be congratulated on the wo-
man it had found to fill that posi-
tion-a woman OF culture and re-
finement and of much ability.
It seems fitting that emphasis
should be placed on the first grades
that the children may learn the art
Of being attentive and how to con-
centrate. These foundations are
learned in the first four grades.
Decision had been made to empha-
size this year the art Of reading. the
old ideas are changing in this re-
spect. The aim now is to bring the
pupil to a point so that he may look
at the page and get quick compre-
hensive idea from it. Reading word
bv word does not bring comprehen-
sion quickly. The pupils want to get
speed and comprehension. The boy
or girl who can take page OF MS
tory or geography and quickly grasp
the idea. has great advantage over
those who are unable to do this.
Mr.. Burril said that he found a
fine spirit at the Cony High Schooi'

plav in the games, reputation
which Cony has always held as Tar
as his knowledge of the school eX-
tended, the superintendent said.
While il might seem presumlng IN
him to tell Augusta people about
their schools inasmuch as most OF
his impressions he had gathered in
one month. Mr.. Burrill said that he
had heard of the high standard and
excellence of the schools OF Augusta
Those points We're recognized not on
~ in Maine but in New England. In
fact a prominent educator had told
him that the three cities IN Name
that MasSa chuSettS superintendent
used as recruiting grounds for teach
crs were Portland. Augusta and San
ford. Such a good reputation has its
drawbacks and one is that these
cities will be used as recruiting
grounds for teachers for other states
Mr.. Burrill stated that while he had
been here he had received a fine spi-
rit of -operation-in fact. re con-
sidered that it was this fine spirit OF
