is somtimes confusion in the minds
of people that obliterates the dis
tinction. This confusion of ideas is
sometimes exemplified by teach
ers. The infiction Of a penal
ty upon pupil for DISC
bedience or disrespect may not al
ways be delayed with safety.
Prompt and vigorous measures may
be necessary for the good of both
the school and the offender; and
delay for prolonged elaboration
may be a serious error. But so far
as anger forms a part of the teach
ers motive his act is not punishment
proper, but revenge. If he is con-
cemed about retaliation for some
personal indignity; rather than the
welfare of his school and the reform
of the culprit, his actions are based
upon improper motives. and there is
strong probability that the fact will
become manifest to his pupils, and
as result he will forfeit some of
the very respect Of which he is SO
tenacious.
1t should be borne in mind that
there are but two objects that can
justify punishment either in school
or state: the protection Of society
Cor the SCHOOL, from those who would
infringe upon the rights Of others,
and the reform of the criminal.
Whatever beyond these inspires our
mode Of dealing with offenders is
not only unworthy of the character
we should maintain as leaders Of
those who are now laying the foun-
dation Of character, but productive
of much that impairs the good order
necessary to the success Of our daily
work. Know myself is certainly
as applicable to teachers as
others. Are we always sure of our
motives?
