WEDNESDAY, No*, 10th 1875.
Public Scliool for IWliites.
Consolidation.
By order of Col. S C. DcBrahl, C.
S. C. and 2j; don’] Snot., the
above schools consolidated on the
2nd inst. There has Jong existed in
\ the minds of a number of our best cit
izens a belief that a move of this sort
would be for the mutual benefit of alj
cencerned. A movement was put r n
foot two years ago to raise money
enough to, enlarge the present acade*
my building, looking to a consolida
tion of the school work in our town.
The project failed for want of suffi
cient fund?, and the idea was aban
doned indefinitely. Necessity, how
ever, the mother of invention, and the
prime cause. of at least .some good
things, has brought about the desired
ends. The insecurity from thieves of
the building formerly occupied by the
Malo Department, and ita utter free
dom from anything like comfort in
cold weather; has led to the change
above alluded to.
The great problem now is “Will the
plan work?” , Occupying the position
we do, as teacher, we feel that our
opinion might be worth something in
the matter, seeing, as we must, the
entire workings of the whole plan.
We admit that there are some disad
vantages ; difficulties will arise among
the children; some ill-mannerly boys
may be disrespectful to some of the
girls, etc,, but these are minor consid
erations, such as can be remedied by
proper management, and such a s
should not be allowed weight in the
consideration of the main object. Will
the plan work? We say, yes, it will
work, and nicely, too, that is if we
may be allowed to judge from the ex
perience of one week. We have never
seen a greater change in auy set of
children than is manifest in the case of
of the boys'iri oUr (ye teacher’s) de
partment, since the two sexes have
been thrown together in the school
room. All rudeness and misbehavior
have been almost entirely abandoned,
heads formerly dishevelled, now show
marks of comb and brush, and faces
once besmeared ancl greasy, but now
bright aiid clean, greet the teachers
every morning. But this is not all.
r erfect lesson?, are now the order of
the day, and a determination on the
part of the beys to equal, at least, their
classmates of tlie fair rex, or possibly
to outstrip them. Nor is this spirit of
noble emulation confined to the boys.
The young, ladies, too, (girls, we call
them) hot ix till abashed, have redoub
led their energies, and are now bend
ing every effort to mount successfully
with their competitors the high pin
nacle of science and literature.
Then aw ny with your idt iu> of sepa
rate schools A wise Providence never
intended' 1 any such thing. The two
H exes were created for each other.
From extreme youth to out age they
walk along life’s pathway together,
then why seek to separate them just at
that time in Hie when they need mat
mutual good resulting from social in*
tercourse with each other, staying the
wild and boisterous spirit of the one
and bringing into action the latent
powers of the other?
In conclusion we w ould say that the
teachers of the schools would be p 1 eas
ed at any time to seethe patrons an!
trustees at the school room. Give
them your support by your pres
ence.
