special investigation by counties of the
condition ofthe public schools, has just
finished its examination in Fairiield
county. In, this county the new plan
waspussued of music; large groups of
schools instead of investigating single
cases. as was done previously in New
London and New Haven counties.
As a result of the general examination
the board ‘declnre that the system of
work in the public schools of the state is
“cumbrouu. complicated and confusing,
and the practice of teaching under it is
largely nuskillfnl, and therefore iueill-
clout." While there is accommodation
for all the children, there are often too
many under one teacher. To show the
extentof absentisin the board cite the
mo! ouedlstrict where, with a school
open 186 days, twenty-four pupils were
absent from seventy~two to 150 days
each. Ilostof theschools have no ll.
brsries and apparatus and heels are
notably wanting. As to the teachers,
the board say that 'fno adequate attain-
men's, no special training. no general
and authoritative credentials ans de.
mended.” A profound ignorance. “if
endowed with assurance, is in no way
excluded from teaching.” while “the
mureof the teachers depends not on
ability, education, training. fidelity, suc-
cess. but upon the annual election,
with its uncertainties and probabilities
of change."
0! the 518 temhers of Fairfleld county
whose schools were visited. 133 had and
noted ate normal or training school. and
of these 121 were in two towns. ln
twelve towns no teachers were found
who received special mining for their
work. One hundred and seventyllve
had received only a common subcol edu-
cation, and taught as they had been
taught.
in theersminatioo it was found that
in Fairiield county of phlldfll’l under
thirteen years old—the age at which com-
pulsory sshoolingsudsin this state—not
moretbnu one-half could write legihly
and correctly. They showed nosvidence
of nhabitcf reading, and out of 1.206
children of twelve years old, there were
659 who failed to perform we example:
“Henry had forty rents. His sister had
four-fifths as many; how many had his
sister?” In one town (Greenwich) out
of sixty-three pupils examined fifty-two
failed on the foregoing question. ‘In
fifteen out of twenty-three towns in the
county more pupils failed than sur-
ceeded on the sentence “Whose knife is
this?" as a test of the use of the interro.
potion mark. Out of 1,089 children of
ten years old 388 could not substract
twenty-live from 104mm of 1.249 chil-
dren of eleven yeaas old, 743 could not
give the number of feet in six yards and
two feet; out of 245 children of fifteen
years old 172 could not answer the our;
tion “Three is what per cent of twelve,"
and out of 883 children thirteen years
old 823 answered incorrectly the ques-
tion “Fire is what part of twenty?"
The board ilnd great inequalities of
school time, in one town school being
open $00 days, in another 150 days. 0!

have never, up to the time of their selec-
tion. set foot in a primary school, are
destitute of all educational experience,
and are unwilling or unable to give time
to the schools " There in bud ventilation

county are not paid mm than the aver-

‘l’hnt Proposed Normal school.~
It. is probable that the disagreement lw- :
tween the city and the State Bonnie of
Education over the State Normal school
authorized by the lust. General Asseiilbly ,
to he built in this city, will. not be
straightened out, and that the school will .
never be established. The present trnin-
lug school is considered entirely satisfac-
tory, and is under the exclusive control of
the city Board of Education. The Normal
school would be under the control of the
state board, on abdication of authority the
local board does not. feel justified in mak—
ing. South Norwnlk is said to want the
school, and there will be no serious oppo
sltion here to letting her have it, although
it is hoped that satisfactory arrangements
can be made. and the proposed school i
kept here.——Brlducport Farmer.
