The Model School takes up a great portion of the time of--the principal. and his teaching. work is attempted by some prentice hand, which in the mm. or things , will be less,` .1 eicient than the `work ot the lar teacher. Then, so far as theiexperimen teaching of the Model students is concerned, it most as anfythiniz will which diverts their atten- mm the everyday work as conducted hytheir regular teacher .Many opinions have been expressed by teachers and others as to theeect ofModel School work upon the Pu-blic Schools, some averting that it. is benecial and others as strongly contending it is bad._ Our own opinion is, that what- ever advantages theremay be are for ont- weighul by the dissdvantsaes. In some places the Model School is separated entirely mm the rublic School, and 2. class of pupils from the primary department taken at stated times to. the Model;Schoul building to `test the ability of the Modelites. If they have the aptitude to teach a class of infants there - will be no necessity for testing them in the higher c'asses. .In the interest of those whose children attend the Public School, it I will become necessary; on the `part. -of the trustees, to inquire why 75 per cent of the candidates for entrance have been plucked, u hen circumstances were so favorable for all to have succeeded.
