It is an established usage that children in the schools in which tu iti(o is charged shall pay according t > the grade in which they are placed. The highst grade usually pays three t!ll anI(d sometimes four times as nmehii as the lowest. This custom has beei handed down from genera tion to generation. This. however. does not show that it is right. The t"aching of the little ones is worth nearly as much. if not as much. as those more advanced. Ask any teacher. endeavoring to do his whole duty to every child committed to his care, which he would rather teach. the little ones or the larger ones, and. among men especially. nine times out of ten, the latter we would find to be preferred. What is the reason of this ' It is plain enough. They are less trouile. Why th(ni charge more for doing that which gives us the least real work ? The States appro priate money for the education of children between certain ages, and make tio distinction on account of age. Our State does not say to the boards of trustees: You must give more for the advanced children than for those just beginning. No, she makes no distinction on account of age or color. Why then should the pay school make a difference ? Is it because the older children are of more importance? Is it because they need some peculiar training not suited to the child in the lower grade? If it is. we would be glad to know in what it consists. Some may claim that it requires more h iyly educated ,uen to instruct the advanced pupils than those not so far advanced. Men who have given their time and mo ny to becoine eminently qualified to adorn the profession they are to fol low. It would be humiliating to ask those great men to stoop so lw' as to take the child of eight years and lead him gently up the rugged hill of learning. These educated men would rather leave the profession than do such a condescending work. They are willing, or at least appear to be, to sit in the professor's chair in the higher institutions and for 3, 4 or perhaps 5 hours in a day, lecture to the ad vanccd students on the great truths of science. These adcanced students must p,aya great deal for the privi lege of hearing the true solution of such iaysterious~ things, which often have a tendency to unfit rather than fit them for intelligent citizenship. Some one will say that we have left the subject we started with, and are making-war upon the higher in stitutions. and claim that they teach those things which might be easily dispensed with. Not so, however. We are simp)ly trying to show that the difierence in tuition, and the er roneous idea in regard to the younger p)upils, drive the most efficient work. ers into the higher institutions of learning, and leave the field in which they can .do the most good, vacant. Suppose that Newberry County had 25 or :30 teachers as thoroughly pre prdas the p)rofessors in our col leges. what a great change there would be within the next ten years. As long, however, as the education of the little ones is considered of suchi little worth, and as long as the ra: reru'is in the teachers' ranks are thought competent to instruct them, we will always be behind. Let the time come, however, when every child shall be considered of equal imp)ortance and worthy of equal attendaace. and we will find that our educational p)rospects will We will find that the educated men and women of the country will seek Tositions in our common schools because they will know that with a reasonable tuition. all scholars pay inig the same, they can earn a comn fortale support. It is wrong, it is dangerous to teach the p)eople of a country that the training of their little ones is of little importance. and can be entrust ed to any one who has joined the teachers' raniks. For all grades effi cienit and skillful instruction is no eessary. and all should pay the same. Our Ordinary Exarninations. Examnations. as ordhinarily con. d1ucted, do not give the results of good teaiching. because they are based upon the supposition that know ledge is everything. Cross, scthis.ad even brutal teachers may Imaike good text-book scholars. They may know a wonderful number of faict-s in history- and geography; they maly be quick in mathematical calcu f lat ion. and excellent in the Ian ~guages arnd yet, with all this they mayx send their pup)ils into the world fit only to become Wall Street sharp ers, boodle, vicious adtik oi ticins. heywill prob)ably get -money, live in' Fifth Avenue palaces, Sdrive fast horses, and be among the - "sucessful" men of the world.
