The NOReSueh Strawberry.

Mr.. S. f. Gardner, OF Slarkc.

About eight years ago Mr.. Brain

Hampton, in this county, bringing
with them a quantity of plants
and shrubs, among which was Il
species of strawberry, the name of
which he vas not able TO find out.
This plant seemed from The first TO
flourish, ard in season produced
such a large quantity of excellent
berries that they proved to be a
great treat TO the family and neigh.
bors for several seasons.
Mr.. Lev, Johns having procured
Il few plants through his school
children, chained the first season
so great II yield that he was Undue
ed to save all The plants tor the
next season, and succeeded in
planting about one eighth of am
acre, from which the neIghbors
used largely; besides selling about
$36 worth 10 Mr.. Blanton, The rail.
road agent at Hampton. Mr..
Johns, still attracted by the great
profit and wonderful productive
neSs of the berry, refused To sell
the plants, for which he had many
applications, and together with his
son-in-law, Mr.. Thomas Oval, set
out nearly all the plants obtaIna-

quirements be persisted I'm for some time,
there will be formed habits which may 90
with the student through life and have much
to do with the formation of his character. "As
is the teacher, so is the school" is an old
adage. Children are initiative beings and
copy closely the manners OF those with
whom they are associated. If the teacher
be d0mineering discourteeus or passionate
i'm the presence of his pupils; If he be care
less or slovenly i'm his work and allow his
scholars to do their work i'm an Indifferent
slip-shO manner, we may confidently look
to see these traits re-appear in his students
unless broken up by some strong counter
acting influence. If upon the other hand,
the teacher exhibit kind courtesy toward,
and deferential regard for his pupils; if he
be person of systematic, orderly habits,
and il he insist that in all the work done i'm
the school room these characteristics be
made apparent, 1t is not difficult to see that
kindred habits may be engenderea in his
pupils and that they may develop into life
habits in accordance with the workings of
psychological law. The graduates of West
Point never lose the sOldierly bearing and
graceful carriage of the body which they
acquire during their student days. Garfield
once said: "Give me log cabin, in the in
terror of the state, furnished only with a
rude bench. Place DR.. Hopkins on one
end of this and NE on the other and it would
be college for me-" And well it might be.
The influence of that noble nature grand as
the mountains among which, for one half
century it tOlcd, and at whose base it sleeps
today can never be circumscribed by the
by walls of Williams. It has left its inn
press on every one with whom it ever came
into contact, and the lives it has enriched
and ennobled are not a few. Is there any
reason to doubt that DR.. Arnold, of Rugby,
and DIR. Taylor, of AndOver, have been and
are still potent factors in the advancement
of our civilization? 1t may not, it is true,
be possible for us to reach so many, and
thereby extend our influence so far, but the
difference is one of degree only. The real
workings of the teachers influence must be
sought for in the lives of his students after
they have passed from out the school room
and have entered upon the duties of life,
and happy may he be whose influence has
been of such kind as to make easier for
his pupils the success which follows earnest
well directed effort. +. b. SMITH. !
