Myself and wife had intended to live in G----, but as her father wasgone, and as she had formed a strong mutual attachment for my family, my wife the following summer took much pleasure in building a handsomecottage nearly opposite my father's house, and on a beautiful lot ofland given us by my brother. We formed a literary and musical club, which met weekly at our house, making it the social centre of theentire town.
I was elected chairman of the school committee, and proceededvigorously in a
...crusade against ignorance; but soon found thatthe life of a reformer is crowned with more thorns than roses, athousandfold! I removed incompetent teachers who, by their sillyquestion and answer methods, were producing parrots--not scholars.
On one occasion, when I substituted a trained normal school graduatefor a useless dancing doll who had made herself popular by flatteringparents and coddling their children, all pupils were withdrawn fromthe school. I told the new teacher to ring the bell, take in sewingif she wished, and draw her salary even if she was left alone in herglory; then I notified the parents that unless they at once sent theirchildren to the school, I should have the pupils arrested for truancy, and themselves fined for violating the laws of the state.
