I. drawing near for the opening ot our public school, and 1 would like to mention, through your peper, one little change that Is my Judgment ought to he made In our public school law. The tween the axes of tlx and twenty- I one years are subject to the public I schools. Our school terms are longer I than they once were and it la a well- I kfiown fact that in almost every school district at every session of school there are children who at the I opening of schodl are not six years of age, bat become six during the scsBloa of school. I believe the taw ought to bo changed so as to provide that any child who would become subject, to school during any school term should bo allowed to start at the opening of the sseslon. I am no school teacher, gat I can realise something 6t the troublo It is to our teachers to Lave new pupils starting in all along during the session. which.necessitates the fortning of new classes. If this suggestion should meet the approval of our people and as yon, Mr. Editor, will rep-, resent as In the next General Assembly, I suggest that you make the change. Respectfully, W. I.
