which no other suitable opportunity occurs.
We will, however, call attention briefly to a
few points.
First: Cultivate accurate articulation.
It is astonishing how very few people talk
plain. Hardly one in fifty does. This may
seem strong assertion, but we speak from
pretty careful observation, in the school-room
and out of it.; and if any are skeptical we
simply ask them to observe for themselves.
All the world say Cover ment for govern
ment, stan for stand, an or I'm for ana, and
we could name hundreds of words the beau
ty and force of which are thus generally
marred to greater or less extent by this
one fault of vicious articulation: words so
habitually mis-sounded that few people no
tice the error. 1t is no unusual thing, eli
ther, especially in towns and villages, for
pupils TO get the common but very ridicu-
Ious notion that mincing, half-talk, half
whine style of utterance is elegant and re-
fined. They call butter butch, never new
eh, and practice thousand other barbarisms
equally absurd, originating for the most part
with brainless ha6 atates of ''frst circles"
and finding few brainless imitators among
the masses. No mercy should be shown
such outrages upon the purity OF our Ian
guage and upon common sense. Such pu-
pills should at once be referred to the stand
ard dictionaries, and made to understand
that these are the only recognized authori-
ty--the dialect of the aooulcL-be refined, to
the contrary Notwithstanding.
Recitation is the most suitable chance the
teacher has to break up these and other Vi
cious habits of speech; and the work should
begin with the child's very first lesson. De-
lay only doubles the difficulty. Indeed, it
seems next to an impossibility to correct
faulty articulation when once the habit has
become chronic. Some have defective Or
gans of speech, some articulate badly from
mere force of habit and association, and
some, and very large number, never gave
the subject thought, and really do not know
the difference between bad articulation and
good. The capabilities of the human voice
are very little understood by the passe- :.
men. There are pupils IN nearly every
school who do not, as it is termed, ''speak
loud enough" This is, really, seldom true.
A very weak tone, if distinctly articulated,
can be clearly understood in-every part OF
verv large room-even whisper can, as
any good reader may satisfy himself by try
ing the experiment. The fault is not, there
fore, so much in the quantity as in the quail
ity of the voice; it is often the case that the
lowest tone in the room makes itself most
distinctly understood. The remedy of the
fault to be effectual, must, OF course, strike
at the true cause.

RECITATION,
NO 6.

Having now finished our brief description
of general methods, it may be proper to in
troduce, here, some remarks bearing equal
" on all kinds of recitation, and hence, gen.
eral in their character.
Tt will be seen that our descriptions of
methods suppose uniformity of books, and
classifedSschool. We are aware there
will not be found in very many districts in
this section of the state, and can only say
that where they are not found method of
nykind is impossible. The remedy is SIM
ple and efectual if Directors could only be
induced to carry out the provisions of the
school law, and insist at once on unitor-
nitv of books. This done classification is
possible-and the teacher alone is to blame
if he does not introduce order and system.
The teachers first step, therefore, in such
schools, should be to secure, as far as pos
sible, the desired uniformity. We are OF
opinion this may usually be done if the teach
er be earnest and discreet. The chances
are at least worth trial, and no teacher
does his duty who does not make the attempt.
Most directors and parents will be convinc-
ed of the policy and economy of uniform
series of books if the subject be fairly pre-
sented. But whether the teacher carries
his point or not, he will have the conscious
ness of having done his duty.
In recitation the teacher makes his mos
lasting impressions on the minds Of his pu'
pills. He there instils thoughts, and incul
Gates habits, that are to shape the future
destiny of those under his charge. 1t shoult
be his constant care to nip, in the bud, bat
habits Just forming, eradicate those already
formed, and to cultivate those which adorr
and ennohle the human character. 1t woult
be impossible to point out in detail all tina
the teacher should do in recitation; and fo

SCHOOLS OF THE oLpEN TIME.

SCHUUkS uf lHk ULUEN lime.
The schools-the schools of other days!
Those were the schools for me,
When in frock and trousers dressed,
learned my A, b, c.
When, with my dinner in my hat,
trudged away to school,,
Nor dared / stop, as boys do now,
Fer school ma am had a RULE.
And if traveller we met,
We threw no sticks nor stones,
: To fright the horses as they passed,
Or break good peoples bones.
But with our hats beneath our arms,
We bent our heads full low,
For neer the school maam failed to ask,
J., .'Boys, did you make bow?''
And all the little girls with US
Would courtesy full low,
And hide their ankles meath their gown
IN, Girls don't have ankles now.
We stole no fruit, nor tangled grass,
We played no noisy games,
And when we spoke to older folks,
Put HANDLES ON THEIR NAMES.
And when the hour of school had come,
OF bell we had no need,
The school ma'am's rap upon the glass,
Each one would quickly heed.
That school ma'am Heaven bless her name
When shall we meet her like!
She always wore green calash,
A calico vandyke.
She never sported panta!etts-
No silks on her did rustic
Her dress hung graceful all around
She never wore q BUSTIE.
With modest mien and loving heart
Her daily task was done,
AS true as needle to the pole,
The next one was begun.
The days were all alike to her,
The evenings just the -sau,e,
And neither brought a change to us,
Till Saturday forenoon came. ....
And then we had ''spelling match"
And learned the sound of A,
The months and weeks that made the year,
The hours that made the day.
And on that day We saw her smile,
No other time smiled she;
'Twas then she told us learnedly
When next ''lcap year" would be.
Alas! kind soul! though leap year came
And went full many time,
e In 'ssingle blessedness" she toiled,
z. Till far beyond her prime.
q, But now, indeed, her tolls arc Ger,
Her lessons are all said,
Her rules well lcarned-her words all spelled
She's GONE UP TO THE HEAD.
