Great Diamond Island.

Mrs. Ruel Field came down to the
island one day last week calling on her
old friends.
The inhabitants of the northerly end
of the island were surprised on Saturday
afternoon by hearing strange noises.
Investigation showed that the noise did
not come from the ground but apparent
ly from the clouds. Thinking that Ia
ra-ra-boom-de-ay was not known above
this earth they took courage and found
that the cause Of the disturbance were
two young ladies and young gentle
man contentedly sitting on the upper
deck of the wind mill. Some thought
that new firm of plumbers had been
engaged to repair the mill, but the party
was up there probably purely for
astronomical research.
Miss FL. Scammon of North street, who
has been stopping with Miss Bryant, has
returned to her home in the city.
The steamers Alice and Isis running
as one line give better satisfaction than
ever before. They give more trips and
much longer sail. ALI the picnic parties
to and from the island say that they have
a better time than ever before because
they do not have to change boats any
where, and that they have not found a
prettier sail in the bay than along Fal-
mouth Foreside to Yarmouth and re-
turn. A new steamer will have to be
put on next summer to meet the de-
mand. The management of this line are
to be congratulated on this years sue
cess.
Last Friday evening a musical and hop
was given by Mrs. Charles j. Chapman
for the young people Of the island, in
honor of guests visiting her. The
musical programme was of high order,
consisting of piano solo by Miss Berry
of Portland, and vocal solos by Mrs.
Wightman of Boston, Messrs. Barnard OF
Portland and Barlow of Montreal. There
were most enjoyable recitations also of
great merit by Mrs. Paul Stevens, Miss
Stafford and Miss Carrie Dana Chase.
After the entertainment the capacious
rooms and broad piazzas of The Towers
were filed with merry dancers until late
hour.

Some grown persons would seem to
think that thsre is no true place for
chastisenent In system Of education.
Such at all events is our impression of
those, and there are many parents
among them, who regard an ordinary
beating given In school as almost an in
dictable form of assault. People Of this
kind haYe evidently forgotten the singu-
lsrities Of their own hayward youth, or
perhspS their lives knew only a genial
and untroabled springtinae Of good con-
duct. In neither case can their judg-
msnt be relied upon to form rule Of
discipline FOR the guidance Of school
teachers. The bad boy will contfnue.to
deserve and to repay with better be-
havior his nesdful thrashings, and even
the good boy will sometimes err and
will profit by corporal reproofs.
The truth about physical punishment,
we may take it, is that it is indispen-
sable-an evil perhaps, but necessary
one. It must be borne, but In order to
attain success with the least possible
amount of injurious friction it must also
be regulated. There must be no irapul-
sive pulling about, no random strokes
with the hand or the ruler, no ear bog
ing with its probable sequel-the rup-
tured tympsnum. The head should
never be struck, not even slapped. We
may say the same Of the body but for
one most tender but safely padded
prominence which appears to mark the
naturally appointed seat of childish az
