The examiner suppos- ed that this must be a slip of the tongue, but inquiry revealed the fact that the teacher's firmly-held view was that the equator was bounded on the north by the Tropic of Cancer, and on the south by the Tropic of Capricorn. The report says that to insure impnm-- uwnt, regular attendance of children is necessary, and that ”11' low should lor- bldcmployment of children uodcr six- teen during sessions of school until they have a certificate that they can read, write and cipher. The community can better afford to give town aid to families than it can to have its children grow up illiterate and untrained. in one school district in this state there is only a single child enumerated. In three school dia- tricts only two. There are 108 schools in which the average attendance is eight or less. lly altering the location and lemeuing the number of school-houses much waste of money would be prevent- ed, and the chance of getting good schools greatly increased.

This idea is, of course, in the bonds of the governor and his stall, but no intimation hssbcen heard of it by the officers of the National Guard and It is probable if any such radical de- parture from the custom was in contem- plation that the wishes of those interest- ed would ho coneulted somewhat.
