Education In jackson County
NUMBER 8.

by D. MAcKLKY.

The old school masters required much formal.
Ity. When the children came TO the door in the
morning, they were required to make their
manners" or ''obeisanee." This consisted In
the boys taking of their hats and making bow.
The girls had to make ''curtchy, being con-
traction of the word ''courtesy." This was sim
ply Slght bending forward Of the knees, and II
was done very gracefully. This manners, or
obelsunce, had TO be repeated at night, each pu.
pill rs he or she reached the door, turning around
and making obeisance. When pupil went tCa
the master to ask him to assist In pronounclng
word, or doing a sum, the obelsance was made.
II pupil on the road TO or from school, met a
person, obelsance was made. Children then
we're naturally the same as ch ldren now Hu.
man nature wos the same In tho days of Abraham,
Moses aud King Saul, that 1t is to-day. Children
would be noisy, TO some extent while on the
road, especially In the evening" after tho rigorous
confinement Of the day. But let them see man
or woman coming, and all was quiet, aud when
they met, tho hat was raised, and the obeIsance
made. This was all matter Of training, and
may have boon out Of placei but 1t Inspired a
reverence for those of older years, which lasted
for life.
II will be seen by the foregoing, that education
In the early days Of the county was not confined
TO book learning SO much as at the present day.
There we're several reasons for this. One was,
there we're fewer books. Another was, that the
school masters did not understand oil that was

thought would lead his pupils to act as he thought
Indies ana gentlemen should act towards each
other that Is, that they should respect the feel
lngs convenience and happiness Of Others es-
peclally those Of more advanced years.

A DREAM OF SUMNER.
ny. join o. WHITTIER.

Bland as the morning breath Of June
The southwest breezCs play;
And, through Its haze, the winter noon
Seems warm as summers day.
The snOw-plumed Angel Of the North
Has dropped his Icy spear;
Again the mossy earth looks forth,
Again the streams gush clear.
The fox his hillside cell forsakes,
The muskrat leaves his nook,
The blue bird In the meadow brakes
Is singing with tho brook.
Bear up, o, Mother Nature !" cry,
Bird, breeze, and streamlet free,
"0ur winter voices prOphesy
OF summer days TO thee!'
So, In those winters of the soul,
BY bitter blasts and drear,
Oerswept from memory's frozen pole,
win sunny days appear.
Reyiving Hope and Faith, they show
The soul Its living powers,
And how beneath tile winters snow
Lie germs OF summer flowers!
The Nights Mother Of the Day,
The Winter Of the Spring,
And ever upon old Decay
The greenest moses cling.
Behind the cloud the starlight turks,
Through showers the sunbeams fall;
For God, who loveth all His works,
Has left His Hope with oil.
