AS steted at the time OF examination,
we shall publish some Of the answers
given under the mead of Theory OF Teach
5ng, for the purpose of showing the diff
ferent views held by teachers concerning
the same subject.
THEORY OF TEACHING.
Little can be done by the teachers 10
the way of improving the morals of the
pupils who attend our distrits schools.
If love of what is right in the highest
sense of the term, be not cherished in the
homes Of the pupils a teacher can only
hope to work moral effects which shall
be known within, or in the immediate
vicinity Of the school-room. Good NOR
ais are the outgrowth of noble impulses
Unborn, and the tender guidance of loving
parents. Not entirely SO is it with man
ners. A pupil may be, and ought to be,
taught at school, good manners. He
should be taught to know the difference
between urbarity and Doorshness-
between politencss and impoliteness.
He should be taught that ''politeness is
kindness in good taste, and that large
amount of the success he hopes to achieve
in this moral will be due to his having q
regard for the feelings of others. Hav-
ing been shown by teachers word and
example how properly to conduct him
self in his relations with others, the
rudcst boy will never desert entirely
his good manners. The instruction in
this direction should receive far more
attention than we teachers are apt to
give. and perhaps we would be moro
often reminded of this if we were to
improve our own condition-if we were
to make ourselves better hammered than
we are.
While one of the saddest things which
can be said of humanity is :
ssMen's manners we grave on brass,
Their virtues we write In water,"-
r. behooves us who are teachers to do all
we can to render less the necessity OF
that unpleasant truth.
