Superintendent Snoddy has called upon the teachers and pupils of the Jasper coilnty school* to contribute material for an educational display at the fairs of this and other fairs this year. The work is so classified and graded that every pupil, no matter of what age or advancement, can readily make contributions. Tho work already received guarantees the success of the enterprise. The tmiform work embrace* map* of school-room*, county and stat*, in geography; language lessons in primary grades; letter-writing and sentential analysis in advanced grades; in arithmetic, solution* and proposition* in all grades; and in miscellaneous work, drawing designs, original essays, and any material which the taste of teachers and pupil* may enable them to contribute. Jasper 'county was the first county in the state to begin the work of grading her district schools; wat the'first to establish an uniform daily programme; arid is the first to attempt a uniform educational display of this character, and it is thought this display will prove that systematic gradation and teaehing in her schools is not inferior to those of any county in the suite, w oven in tho union.
