NAUTICAL NED.

sing of toddling mariner chap,
With wide tiaring trousers and sailor's can.
His little warm jacket, with buttons and braid,
Bespeak the bold rover to run q blockade,
No longer miscall him-when all has been said.
His name is not Edward, but Nautical Ned.
A wee little, free little fellow is he,
And yet he's regular man of the sea.
question if ever he walked a ships deck
Or felt the salt spray on his cheek or his neck,
And surely those blue eyes never have scanned
The faroff horizon of a long looked for land.
What odds if never the sea he has crossed,
In tub of boat been rudely tossed?
He losses the sea in a tub of his own
While the waves dash high and the women
make moan.
The most wonderful cruiser ever afioat
Is the world. She is truly marvellous boatI
And sailing out on the sea of time,
So tempest tossed to another cline,
1t is sweet to think that such sailors are
AS Nautical Ned, the jolly young tar.
With the great, good Captain and such as these,
Who cares for the wind swept, stormy seas?

The high school is the poor mans
school. The rich can send their children
to seminaries and academies. The poor
mans door, through which his child may
pass to the university, is the high school.
1t is. therefore. necessary that such things
be taught in the high school as are re-
quired to fit those for universities who
desire to go to that State institution.
Certain language studies are essential to
that end; certain others are not, but are
optional studies, and are retained there
for those who wish to avail of them. The
high school is not an original nor insep-
arabic part of the common school sys-
tenn. Its existence depends entirely upon
the desire of the local community for it.
While we do not stand strongly for the
retention in it of language studies not re-
quired for admission to the university,
yet if the Board of Education represent
ing the people thinks that there is de-
mand sufficient to justify the retention of
such extra language and optional studies
