WHAT WE LOVE.

We love to lie beneath the shade
And quaf the cooling lemonade;
We love to feel the cheerful ants
Crawl calmlyu our summer pants,
We love to see the apple worm
Upon our shirt front squeAm and squirm
We love to watch with placid eye
The doOdlebug go tumbling by;
We love to hear In distant bogs
The rueful rumbllng of the frogs;
We love to hear the sllmy snake
Wind In and out the verdant break;
We love to hear the crlspy cry
OF bumble-bees bumb bumbling by;
We love to scent upon the air
The balm of squashbugs balming there,
With Ivy trailing all the land
And poison oak at every hand,
Far from the clty's dusty strife,
How sweet to lead rural life!

1t is 4 source of much regret to the
teachers and a means Of much injury
to the school that so many disregard
the value, the absolute necessity of
punctuality in attendance throughout
the term, II the greatest benefits
are to be derived. Keep your child
rem in school every day to the end of
the term, impossibilitics excepted. In

learn not books alone, but principles
of punctuality, integrity, honesty
every principle that will lead to the
upbuilding CT a true manly or womanly
character.

School Text Books.

Below we give the views of gem
tleman who has had an extensive ex-
perience in school matters and is able
and capable of making an impartial
judgment of the relative merits of
school textbooks:
Much is being done and said at the
present time in regard to changing
the textbooks now being used in our
schools. The act passed last fall in
relation to this matter doubtless had
two objects in v'ew-frst, to secure Il
uniformity, and second, the selection
of a better list Of books, if possible.
Although a complete change is unad-
visable and for many reasons impyac-
ticable, still there are instances where
a change or partial change is neces-
sary to secure uniformity.
In regard to a selection of books,
all have their preferences, and there
are but few books that do not have
some distinguishing features, some
special merits not foundi in other books
on the same subject.
We have never seen an arithmetic
that we should prefer to Greenleaf's.
Fish's arithmetic is very good book,
especially in its treatment of percent
age and mensuration.
If we could get a series Of readers
that is much better graded than the
series now in use, which shall contain
more information in regard to reading
(reading rules, or Evolutionary dnlD
and more explanations of the text,
and which shall contain as few obiec-
tionable selections as the American
series, it seems to us that such Il
reader would warrant q change. There
are many good readers, and all seem
to have some recommendation. The
Independent readers approach nearer
to our ideal Of a good reader than any
series that we know,
The subject of writing ought to re-
ceiye more attention in our schools
than it has in the past. There have
been many improvements made in this
branch Of education. One Of the latest
IS the movable copies found in the
"ModcP' copy books. The aim of
these books is to produce rapid,
easy and lcgiblc style of penmanship.
Good models are kept constantly be-
fore the eye, until the ideal forms or
letters are indclibly stamped upon the
mind.
The subject Of grammels is also be-
ing discussed. There are those who
are quite favorably impressed with
Reed and Kellogs. Green's gram
mar, the one now in use, is one Of the
most comprehensive and scholarly
works on the subject for schools that
we have seen, and in the hands Of a
good teacher, cannot fail to produce
good results.
Publishers, generally, have been
very liberal in placing their books in
the hands of committees for examna-
ton, and with the exercise of careful
observance to the special wants Of our
schools, wise selection will be an
easy matter. ....

Soldiers Headstones.

The State committee appointed at
the Department Encampment held
in Rutland in January, have issued a
circular to the Selectmen of each town
throughout the State, calling upon
them to forward the names, birth and
military connection of all Union SOL
diers buried in our cemeteries whose
graves are unmarked. The committee
is Redfield Proctor, John A. Sheldon,
and James Ill. Dyer. AS the Govern
ment has been SO generous as to fur
nish nead-stones, it seems that the
people, especially veterans of the late
war, should interest themselves enough
to furnish the necessary data for the
fulfillment of the Government design.
Any information relative to soldiers
buried within our town sent to q. M.
Strong, Hyde Park, will be forwarded
to the committee. The time is limited
to June 18th, 1879, SO the matter
should receive immediate attention..
