Mon room-:in Cot via Takk# lliom l! ink among those count ic# of tin- time Hint can boast of having tinoil school nitti-nit. Wo have local taxation tor pulilio schools, which hat enabled our County Hoard ol Education to li-nghthen mir term of school trout live to seven mouth#, and to greatly im prove ihe condition of many ol the school houses of the county. In many instances the old houses have lieen torn down and new nnd • -onimodious Imihi mgs erecti d and furnished with new patent top: desks; while in other instances a new room lias been added to the old building to make room tor the, increasing at.tendance. The teachers of our county are paid none too much, but certainly a more reasonable salary than is paid teachers in many otharcoun lies; .mil what is more inviting to most teacher# is the fact that they are paid their sulan lien- m Mont gomery county as soon as they finish each month and send in their report to the eommißsioner. This luet brings out the point that we me successfully doing what the* great slate of Georgia cannot do, ticorgiu —and it is smd to her shame —has never vet devised a piun by which she run pay thej teachers of l hi state monthly ; but 1 they must wait for months and months for their pay. while every one else who works for the state is pai»i prompt !y as t hey should he Straws show how the wind blows ami these unmistakable signs of interest and progres#ivem»ss along eitucat tonal lines point to the unmistakable fact that Montgom-. ery county reaps eon#itit*ruble ad vantage trom these improvements over neighboring '■minfies. Our count \ is becoming favorably known to teachers, and tie* school commissioner in looking about for teachers has sonic favorable inducements to h dd out that will attract tin* best talent ; and when unv one has once taught hers he usually is anxious to tench here again; and in many instances the patrons being so favorably im pressed with their teachers they an* glad to secure the service# of tleor »aine teacher again.

In tunny iiistMiice# cattle stand around the i school house doors and hogs sleep under tin- building while the teachers ami the pupils light fleas as naturally as a duck takes to water. Did you know that tlie small children can hardly manage to! keep tie* hogs out of tli*-ir dinner while they ent? It. is indeed no i unusual sight to sec a hog dash up and grab some child’s bucket ! i and run off wit h it. “Good!” you say, “but when l shall we begin this work of fenc ing in the school houses?” Well just as soon ns the people sit \ the i w ord. i itK I I AC os Os 11 on VIHV should he unfurled from tin top of every school in our county.
