UNSAFE ExPERIMENr.-The editor of the
New Hampshire Patriot, President Pierce's
home organ, says that the democratic party
is DESTROYS of putting an end to all undue
Influence of foreign-born citizens in cleo

In order to secure the greatest possible adj
vantages from the educational facilities now
afforded in our midst. punctuahty of attend
ance on the part of every scholar, is absolute
ly necessary. No pupil can be absent for
single half day. without sustaining an INJURY
himself, proving hindrance to his fellow Pu-
pills, and greatly annoying his teacher. We
hold out no inducements tothose who do not
attend regularly and punctually.
Sickness of the pupil or in the family,
should be the only cause for OBTAINING
scholars.
Many parents often allow their children to
be absent from school for very trivial causes.
Soon those children lose their position, their
interest in study and in school, and teachers
are blamed To obvate all thes. difficulties,
we ask the efficient cooperation OF every pa
rent If any scholar is absent for single day
from his place. without being excused at the
request of the parent, notice will be sent by
the teacher-and any scholar being absent from
school for a longer time. in any sreek, than one
half day. ,citkout being ercused. triH Jore'i
