Enjoyment of work comes from hap.
piness in that work. The moping
misanthrope who effects gravity because
he is affected with dyspepsia, whose sad
countenance indicates the seriousness of
his disorders, should avoid society.
Nobody will be his friend for the reason
that he is not on friendly terms with
himself. Some one of our minor poets
has written in the major key few verses
that are as true as they are witty;
Laugh, and the world laughs with you,
Weep, and you weep alone;
For this brave old earth must borrow its
mirth,
It has trouble enough of its own.
Rejoice, and men will seek you,
Grieve, and they turn and go;
They want full measure of all your pleas
ure,
But do not want your woe
Be glad and your friends are many.
Be sad, and you lose them all,
There arc none to decline your nectared
wine,
But alone you must drink lifs's gall.
What world of truth is here for the
teacher. A hearty laugh has often
governed troublesome class when
commands had lost their power. Sue
cessful teachers have always been happy
teachers. Many of the old teachers of
New England were very serious in their
work, and this did harm. They took
very sober views Of life. Tears to them
were omens of progress, laughs deserved
to be followed by blows.-fsaehers' In

Mr.. Vickery responds with his usual
promptness to our question as to how
the Normal had been beneficial to him.
he says: CDR. Lander's practical views on
mathematics, Miss McCaut's common
sense way of teaching geography and
the many sensible suggestions in the
lectures of the able Principal, Prof
Morrison, SO considerably widened my
views and gave me such different idea
of the teachers work, that it is almost
impossible for me to say to what extent !
was benefited. No thoughtful teacher
can doubt that the Normal was grand
success. know I am a more hopeful
and more determined teacher than
before. I have introduced several of the
new features into my school and have
found the results even beyond my expec'
tations. I have tried calisthenics in my
school and find the children enjoy it and
are benefited by the healthful exercise.
7 have introduced the question box too.
My pupils take great interest in it.
Questions of various kinds are put in
and q multiplicity of answers are given
to them. Speaking fguratively, my
pupils are carried away with the question
box and with calisthenics. Strange must
be the man or woman that did not catch
inspiration from the exercises at the
County Normal"

sIwishI had my life to live over"
That remark was made in our hearing
not long since by . young man not yet
twenty years of age. He was trying to
persuade himself that if he could just
start again he would do wonders. Poor
fellowl what is he lamenting over the
wasted nineteen years for3 Better look
after the present and future and let the
past take care of itself. What young
man under twenty years of age, and
possessed of reasonable amount of
determination, can not make the futurea
glorious success, however noticeable may
have been his derelictions of past duties :?
The young man is mistaken. He is
decsiving himself. If it were possible
for him to live his life over again, he
would doubtless repeat it to the letter.
There is no better point along the jour
ney Of life for making new departure
than the milestone he has just reached.
But he does not stand alone in this
matter. There are thousands of young
men all over the country. just hanging
aDund loose, trying hard to kill time,
and wishing they had started right.
Wishes are not worth 6aubee unless
they are deep enough, and strong enough,
and hearty enough and honest enough to
make one act. Hide the failures of the
past in the acknowledged successes of
the future. Idle wishes and passively
good intentions have never yet made life
success. Every young man must learn
sooner or later that one must have q
certain amount of that commodity called
uim before he can reasonably hope to
succeed. Nor must that vim be wild,
reckless element in his nature unguarded
and misguided. If the present and the
future are worth anything, the present is
worth appreciating and the future is
worth planning for. Young man if you
read these lines, wake upl stopl Think |!
Get your bearings! You are just now
ready to take hold of life in earnest, and
grapple with its difficulties in the con-
sciousness of possessing the strength, and
nerves, and sinews of man. If life is
worth living at ALL, it is worth living
we'll; it is at least worth an earnest effort
on your part.
"We live in thoughts, not words;
in deeds, not years.
In feelings, not in figures on dial.
