In everv section of Lancaster county the people at? becoming more interested every vear in having good schools. We don't believe there is a co.inty in the State that has more or better I schools to its population than Lan caster. Th? re are about <>'2 white I schools in ths county. All of these are run while the public funds last, and many of them are run the full scholastic year by supplemental funds sunscribed by the patrons Pleasant Vullev Academy is one of them. A good school is run there the year round. For several years the j patrons h?.ve hud I'rof L Shurley, i one of the best mule teaciiera in ' the State, at its head, and .it has continued to prow until its pupils now number between 60 and 70. The trustees met this week and decided to employ a competent lady assistant teacher and Miss Rena Harris was elected. Such achoola as the Pleasant Valley school are a credit to the county and we hope very soon to see in every section of the county schools like the Pleasant Valley. Tabernacle, Oakhurst, .Jones X 'Roads, and others we might mention. Onward Lancaster in the march of education, until every one of your 62 schools are run the full scholastic year and by the ablest teachers that can be procured.
