Few OF our real enjoyments and blessings have
come alone through our own efforts, but rather
have bccn seeds planted and watered by others,
and whose ripened fruit has fallen at our feet
Nothing is nearer to us than the future COM
fort. happiness and character OF our children.
The formative periods of their lives will much
of it be passed mid the surroundings OF the
school-house So much depends upon the silent,
molding influences about childhood and youth,
that, upon the days named, most earnestly
commend the remembrance OF the school
| grounds and their improvement.
AS far as possible may appropriate exercises
be held by pupils and let them be associated
| with the planting OF trees by patrons and off,
GERS. The reward may not be yet, but it will be
abundant and reflect gratitude in other years.
