IN all European countries creosoted
wood is used, wherever possible, on
account of its lasting so long. The
process of creosoting is not an expen-
sive one, and in view of the excessive
use of wood in mines it is suggested
that it would be economy for all
collieries to use only creosoted timber
in permanent haulage roads, shaft
ways, stairways, etc, and in the case
Of the larger companies it would pay
to secure the right, and erect creosot-
ing works Of their own.

The School Grounds.

Every school officer, every parent,
and every child should feel peculiar
interest in beautifying and preserving
the school grounds and the school build
ings.
The teacher is the natural leader in
this as in all other educational work in
the community He consults, plans and
directs. He enlists pupils, patrons and
parents. He studies the plans Of his
predecessors, modifies and perfects
them. Here is one of the ihnumerable
arguments in favor of retaining the
same teacher for many years.
Each child is protector as well as a
constructor The work, for the most
part, will be done by the pupils. Each
one should be trained to plant and pro-
tect every shrub and flower. Thus our
American youth can be educated to re-
spectpublic property and public grounds.
The vandalism that begins with cutting
and marring the school shrubbery will
disappear.
Glad memory. The Joy of childhood
gladdens all the after life. It is joy
to children to decorate, and preserve,
and enjoy beautiful school grounds.
Millions will recall those days as the
one green, glowing oasis in a long life.

What the school Bell Saws.

NtaE the school bell says.
1t is wonderful what unlike things
The school bell says to the boys, when 1t
rings!
For instance, the laggard, who drags along
On his way to school, hears this sort OF
song:
Oh--suz-hum.
Why did / come?
Study till four
Books are bore,
o how | wish
| could run off and fish, -
See. there the brook,
Here's line and hook.
What's that you say?
Hurry up, eh!
Oh-hum--ho!
Spose ! must go
study till four.
Books are bore!
Then the boy who loves to be faithful and
true,
Who does what his parents think best he
should do,
Comes bravely along with sachel and
books,
The breeze in his whistle, the sun in his
looks
And these are the thoughts that well up
like song,
AS he hears the old bell with its faithful
ding dong:
Cling, clang, cling
I'm so glad could sing!
Heaven so blue,
Duty to do;
b rds in the air,
Everything fair.
Even boy
Finds study JOY!
When my works done
Tn ready for fun.
Keener my play
For the tasks OF the day.
Cling, clang, cling
I'm so glad ] could sing
These are the songs which the two boys
heard.
When the school bell was ringing, word for
word.
Which, do you think, was tho truer song?
Which do you hear, as you're trudging
along?
Don't be u laggard far better, [ say,
To work when you work, and play when
you play.

Some Mistakes.

1t is u mistake to talk too loud in the
school-room. A quiet voice is more eff
fective in governing.
1t is mistake to talk too much about
order. 1t is disorder in the teacher that
generates disorder among the pupils.
1t is Il mistake to give more than one
direction at u time. 1t confuses the
pupil and results in omissions Of duty.
1t is a mistake to make too many sig
nails to begin or stop work. Tell clearly
what is to be done. Some teachers use
the word work, and the directions are
instantly followed.
1t is a mistake to be out Of sorts with
the whole school because one pupil has
caused the teacher displeasure.
1t is mistake to have a tavorite, and
equally so to nag one pupil continually.

Are language Lessons a Failure :.

j. W. StearnS, Professor of the Science
and Art of Teaching in the Wisconsin
University, condemns them in the fol-
lowing vigorous editorial:
The serious weakness resulting from
the trivial language lessons in the
schools begins to be painfully apparent.
Teachers do not know what is correct
usage in English. They cannot use the
pronouns correctly, or the irregular
verbs, or escape gross errors in construc
ton, and this because they have no
critical instrument by which to test and
Judge of expressions. This is the legiti-
mate result of the foolish crusade
against technical grammar. We must
cease to listen to cranks and restore
grammar to its proper place in the
schools, il we do not wish to be tried
and mortified constantly by gross errors
of speech on the part of both teachers
and pupils. Technical grammar is
critical instrument to aid one in deter
mining what is correct in expression
and in Interpreting the language of
others. 1t is further of great value as
Il drill in analytical thinking. Grammar
vigorous. critical practical grammati-
cal works greatly needed, to give the
pupil the most useful canons of gram
NAUTICAL criticism by which to guide and
steady his own use, together with a
complete grasp of the general elements
OF a sentence, so that he can quickly
detect important structural relation.
and use them in determining the sense
OF a passage. OF this kind of gram
NAUTICAL work there is great need in our
schools.

why the Teacher Should Be Early.


A teacher should be at the school
mouse early every day for the following,
among many reasons adduced:
/. TO set an example. AS the teacher,
SO will the pupils learn to be-
2. To prevent damage. Children ar
irving at the school house early get to
playing in and about the room, and very
frequently do unintentional damage.
3. To see that all is right. There are
many little things to be put to rights"
or arranged before school opens.
4. To secure ventilation. The house,
shut up from the time the school closed
the day before, is unhealthful, and
should be opened and fully aired in sea-
son to be warmed and closed at school
time.
