THE SCHOOL QUESTION.

During the long Summer vacation
have noticed but little the in 'Home
Circle" concerning the school question
and as the fall term of school is now in
session, why not reopen the subject and
make ourselves, as teachers, useful to
each other by giving our school room
experiences. If we try some new plan
and find it to be success, let US not
be selfish but give it to other teachers
to Try. True the same plan cannot be
be used successfully by all but there
may be enough teachers who derived
some benefit from 1t to justify its publ
cation. Again, as originality is an in
despensible quality of the teacher, he
may be able to work over the old plan
inro something new, suitable to his
case.
There are things to be secured in or
der to make school completely sue
cessful. viz: Regular attendance, good
order and industry in study. These
things are so dependent on each other
that to secure one means to secure all.
When school is made to work well
disorder at once disappears and regu-
lar attendance at once begins.
So the remedy for all these lies in the
successful plan of securing good work
This can be done by giving pupils
work for both mind and hands at the
same time. Let every lesson assigned
contain certain amount of
writing work, but let the work be of
such nature as to require mental as
we'll as muscular action to accomplish |
it. We thus notonly employ the pupils |
but We have an evidence of his work.
The nature of this work depends en-
tirely upon the advancement and abil-
ity Of the pupil, but it should begin as
soon as the child begins school, and
the first thing that should be given the
child upon entering school Is slate.
lie should then be trained to do neat
ly all the work assigned him, and thus
ne acquires habits Of neatness and in
dustzy, and BY beng provided with
something to do, is kept out Of mischief

A Chattanooga Tenn. bicyclist fool
ishly attempted the descent of steep

The Northern Pacific.

New York, 12.-Tne Northern Pacific
people here say, in reference TO bills in.
troduced in Congress affecting the land
grant, that the same tactics were resorted
to at the last session Of Congress, and
they expect to see them repeated for two
years to come. The feeling on the part
of officers of the road is that Congress
cannot possibly be brought to wrong the
500 stockholders who have put $4,000
600 into the enterprise, on their faith in
the governments promises, by taking
from them the land irrevocably granted,
but not yet technically earned, through
which they are constructing the road, and
doing all in their power to finish it by
September l, 1888. Ex-Secretary Schurz
says if he was in error in his decision
concerning the land grants, the error was
supported by the opinion of the attorney
general, who wss consulted before the
decision was made by Congress, which
during two sessions permitted the deci-
sion to stand and be acted upon by the
House committee on Pacific railroads,
which reported concurrence in it by the
department of justice, which recently
gave an opiBion affirming it, aud by
President Arthur, who ordered it to be
further acted unon.
