o "Honor pupils are those that were
not absent nor tardY during the month.
As the next month closes the schoo
year, I take this occasion to state, thai
it is hoped that all parents will try tc
have their children attend regularly and
promptly until school closes.
Many parents, on account OF some
trifing work that could be done at othel
times, keep their children at home, an6
thus greatly impede their progress. Ma
ny Of the pupils that are so irregular in
their attendance are but little farther ad
yanced at the close of the year than al
the beginning. This is to be regretted
but those that are thus negligent vii
have to suffer the consequences, and
should blame no one but themselves.
Some have an idea that the coDclud
ing months of the school year are no
80 valuable as the rest. This is a very
great mistake They are, by all odds
the most important Of the whole year
for during this time all that has been
studied in the previous part Of the year,
is reviewed and firmly fixed in the mind
Knowing, then, the Importance OF be
ing faithful to the end, /. is hoped tha
all wso desire their children's advance
ment, will see to it that they are faithful
in their attendance. so that at the end o.
the year, If prepared, they can be ad
vanced to higher grade.
