1t is unfortunate for the profession
(and the schools) that so little prepara-
ton is necessary in our country to be-
come a teacher. 1t was in contempla-
School next term; but as SO many of
our students propose to teach without
such assistance, the project will prob
ably be inadvisable. Even without that
class, however, there will be better op-
portunities than usual for those who
intend to teach. We trust that some
will see it TO their advantage to continue
in school through this year rather than
lose their classification and all the bene-
fits they might obtain at school.
The following students of our School
have been neither absent nor tardy dur
ing the winter term:

AT special meeting of Fidelity Lodge
No. Sc, A. 0. y. w. lat their hall, March
3lst, 1884, the following preamble and
resolutions were unanimously adopted:
WHEREAS, BY the inscrutable wisdom
of Divine Providence, Brother V. f.
Kinney has been suddenly removed
from us by death, in the midst of his
usefulness and vigor, it is therefore
RESOLVED, BY the members of this
Lodge, that in the death of Brother
Kinney we sustain a loss which brings
sorrow to every heart, and which we
shall find it difficult to replace. AL
though the last initiate into our order,
yet he had won a high standing in our
regard, and as trusted and responsible
officer, had the full confidence and es-
TEEN of our fraternity.
Resolved, That while we mourn for
our departed Brother, we are not un-
mindful of the far greater loss sustained
by the members of his immediate family
and to them we would respectfully ten
der every expression of coincidence in
our power. We trust they will feel, in
this their bereavement, that friendly
sympathy is earnest in their behalf, as
we together stand appalled, before the
mysteries of the unseen and the eternal.
