HOME EDUCATION.
A Word In Defense of the Much 4 bus,
GOVprneSG,

A Word In Defense of the Much 4 bused
Govcrness,
In spite of the multitude of schools
private and public there is room for the
governess. Many mothers naturally
prefer to have their daughters brought
up under their own roof. They feel
happy in the knowledge that their girls
are not exposed to Influences they would
disapprove, as they might be were they
sent to day or boarding schools. and
they are able to carry out any particu-
lar views as to the education Of their
children. When there are two or sew
cral sisters. the home school-room is
undoubtedly. from certain points of
view, the best training ground for
young girls, When their characters are
formed it may again become ques-
ton of choosing between school and
master for finishing purposes. No
difficulty surely. can be found in these
days in meeting with a lady fitted by
birth and education to undertake the
education of daughters of gentlemen.
1t is to be hoped that the old and igno-
rant prejudice against "the governess"
is fast dying out, and that there is now
little fear lest the lady to whom a
mother intrusts the forming of her
daughters character and the cultiva-
ton of her mind should be treated as
some one little below the level of an
upper servant" Girls of the present
and coming generations are fortunate
in this respect-that their teachers can
be chosen from large body of highly
educated ladies, many of whom indeed
arc forced by the stress of circumstances
to work, but many of whom also, on the
| other hand, choose to labor in the field
of education. And while great deal
more thought is bestowed on the sys-
TENS of education, and lesson-b books are
things of comparative delight instead
of being as in the good old times, a
means of mental torture and repression,
our girl students are to be accounted
fortunate that third condition of their
school-life is also happy and that their
mistreSSeS are women fitted to win not
only their respect and esteem, but also
their affection.-Fashion and Fancy.

The Anniversary.

The 73rd, anniversary of Odd
Fellowship in the United States, was
Loyalty celebrated by the Morris lodge
and its friends, at their hall on Tues
day night last, according to postpon-
ment. We regret not being able to
give full account of all the pleasant
things we were an eye witness to, but
space forbids. We had choice music
by the Methodist choir, an unan-
swerable defence of the order, in the
shape of an address by the Rev. G. A.
Cressy. The last part of the
entertainment that we waited for, was
not the worst,-the supper, but as
we cannot do as full justice to it with
the pencil as we did at the improvised
table we must pass on. There was a
dazzling array of beauty, which was
no doubt we'll utilized in the exercise
of ''the light fantastic toe which
closed the exercises. The whole
affair was most enjoyable, and will be
long remembered by all present.
