The SchooImaster.
From the Boston Transcript

The curiosity that ] have to show you
to-day, children, is perhaps the most
wonderful in the collection. He beats
all.
The schoolmaster, it is said trains the
young idea how to shoot. He is not
himself given to shooting, however. He
takes more delight in the rod than the
gun.
The schoolmaster is not solitary
man, but his principal assistant is. The
name of his assistant is Corporal Pun
ishment. It is to be hoped that the
corporal will soon be remanded to pri-
vate life.
The schoolmaster is sometimes called
a tutor, and occasionally he is called an
ass. On the whole, an astutor man, is
seldom found.
The schoolmaster thoroughly under
stands the rule of three, but always in
sists upon the rule of one. So you see
his understanding is out of all proper
ton to his rule.
Although the schoolmaster is ruler
of boys, he has his own ruler. IF be be
no stick himself, his ruler always is.
The schoolmaster is very inquisitiVe
person. He is always asking questions.
Heis questionable calling.
The schoolmaster can be found in all
classes. He is also given to classifying
knowledge. sometimes think [ would
be in his classify could.
The schOolmaster is good at figures
He would cut pretty figure if he were
not. He is the figure head of the
school, or should be; but sometimes a
boy gets ahead of him.
He is also good at spelling. He can
stand a long spell In good situation
without finching.
He is always correcting the errors of
his pupils, and consequently has but lit
tie time to attend to his own.
The schooImaster is not man of war,
but he often employs monitor. He
would be all at sea without bis monitor.
He gets the monitor to see in his place.
Oh shun misbehaving children, or the
sea of the monitor shall overwhelm you.
The schoolmaster teaches the A B @,
but he cannot make a bee see.
Every sort of ology is taught by the
schoolmaster, but tautology is no better
coming from him than from anybody
else.
In school of young rascals the school
master is always the principal.
Some schoolmasters are actuated en-
tirely by the law of love-love for their
situations. Some entirely. by hate
hate to give them up.
The schoolmaster loves to have call
ers at his school; but habit has so pos
sessed him, that he not only collars his
scholars, but also scholars his callers.
[ used to wonder at the schoolmaster
during my school-days, bat my school
daze will never return.
