ton was a farm boy and land sur
veyor; Henry Clay, "the silver
founded orator." was a farm boy
| and "the mill boy of the Slashes"
General B. F. Butler, of Massa-
| chusets, was n chore boy on the
farm; and Dwight l.. Moody was
farm hand. Remember Cincin-
natus at the plough. Less than
two days of hard work at ditching
in his fathers meadow in Quincy,
Massachusetts, made John Adams
to return to school and become 4
good Latin scholar. While study
ing law he was Il successful teach
er in Worcester.
Teachers Of both day and even
school boy from the mill or shop
has steadiness of purpose I'M
known to boys unframed to labor.
So far from interfering with in
tcllectual culture, manual labor
really lends powerful support by
strengthening the character and
developing the moral energies !;
for upon these the value of our
happiness depends. Tho great ad-
vantage of the country school is
that boys and girls have Il combi-
nation of metal and physical exer-
else in the morning and evening
"chorcs' on the farm and within
household. For them, school is
is reality relief from hard labor.
Better four or six months of earn
est school work than ten months
of unwilling dawdling with books.
The boy who walked three, four,
seven, and even ci cight-and-half
miles daily, while attending tho
academy, high, or select-school, in
the country, in his preparation for
teaching, knew for what he went,
and in after life was not afraid of
had work.
If, for the teacher, the country
school has it's dark side in low
wages or lack of society, it has its
bright side in the opportunity af-
fordcd for the study of nature and
her works. There ingenuity and
tact, originality and skill, are most
needed in cndeavors to develop in
tellcctual capabilities and mental
power. SCNVOLA.

ADVANTAGES OF CONTRN
SCHOOLS.

The ungraduatcd country school
IS the best practicc-school for
II young teacher; nor should it's
educational advantages for pupils
be moderated. In the long race
Tor wealth, position and honor,
the country boy often reaches the
coveted prize much in advance of
those in The city grades whose
walks are paths Of ease and com.
fort. Perhaps the chief reason is
that the country boy combines
physical training with mental
work. During a part of the year
ne works on the farm and acquires
muscular strength and habits of
industry. In the autumn he goes
back to school with n keen relish
for study and an established
habit of application. Hard work
