' A SuggesffoA .8000 the Trnstees o( hie Krsnk Unton Graded school will be look ing around for teachers and a prin eipal for the next school year. As an observer sees it, would it not be well' smoe the patrons of tbk school own and euppprt this sehool by taxation which they willingly toM upon themselves, that the Trustees before they make a selec 1 ?otion of tssohers from the list of applications which they may have, to ea!l a mass meeting of the patrma, find oat from th*m whom is wanted for a teacher. It may be that some teacher who is very pop ular with the Trustees is very un popular, as a teacher, ?ith the patrons. Nj one knows so much abnat the taaoheis.afid a principal and their work, aa the patrons who have children in the school. It is known that our school is in debt, would it not be better, not to hire s principal for next year, aa an experiment, and pay off a little of thw debt. It is a known fact that to the teachers credit is due for the work done in the school, not only in this but all schools. Sone of the best preparatory schools in tbia State are rutMn this way. 1 I am always willing to. -yield to the majoritY, I fully believe that this plan of hiring teachers and principals by a majority vote ef the patrons, would be a *tep forward in the management of our public sohools.
