opportunity to thank your correspondent

in your paper several months ago. When
| asked the question relative to the French
Metric System |, boy-like, entertained the
opinion that it would be answered without
delay. As pupil think it right t. obtain
information upon important subjects, don't
you? am as much opposed to what Pa
terms 'forewardness' in children as any
boy can be, for the old nursery adage,
children should be seen and not heard" has
been so often repeated to me that it has be-
come as familiar as the names of my most
intimate schoolmates. You have been very
kind, srs, in publishing letters from chill
dren. In so doing, you have gained their
love. You have my thanks and the best
wishes of boys heart for your present and
future welfare. BE kind enough to give
this letter place in the BEACON. | should
