A Good Education.

The late Edward Everett condensed
into single brief paragraph his estima-
ton Of what constituted good educa-
ton. Here 1t is: ITO read the English
language we'll, to write with dispatch q
neat, legible hand, and be master of the
first four rules of arithmetic, 80 as to
dispose at once. with accuracy, of every
question Of figures which comes mp in
practice. I call this good education.
And IL you add the ability to write pure,
grammatical English, I regard it As an
excellent education. These are the tools.
You can do much with them, but you
are hopeless without them. They are
the foundation: and unless you begin
with these, not with h.shy a'tainments,
little geology, and oil other ologiea
and osophies, are ostentatious rubbish. u
