Our teachers will find it both
profitable and interesting to clip
out for use the good things they
read. The following rules. issued
to his teachers by Supt. Mowry, of
Salem, Mass, are good TO cut out
and paste in your daily register:
l. Prevention of the wrong doing
is better than furnishing the wrong
done.
9. Never charge a pupil with a
misdemeanor on mere Suspicion;
never at all, unless you have posi-
tive proof, an absolute dcmonstra.
ton, that he is the guilty one.
3. Exercise great care in taking a
stand, that you may have no occa-
sion to retreat.
4. Fault-finding is not calculated
to cure n fault.
;. Distrust in the teacher breeds
deceit in the pupil. Therefore al
ways trust your pupils.
@. Absolute self-control on the
part of the teacher is a necessary
prerequisite to proper control OF
the pupils.
Z. Obedience won is far better
and easier than obedience compel
led.
s. A child properly employed is
easily controlled.
o. A school not properly control
led is a school of little progress or
profit.
10. Never threaten; never chide
angrily; above all, never use' in the
least degree, or under any circum'
stances, sarcasm.

TEACHING PROM NATURE.

From the pages of natures book
are the truest lessons to be learned.
It is a textbook which all may
study. To the young IT is the most
interesting of all books, and from 1t
may be learned what the printed
page in the school room can never
adequately furnish. Too many
teachers refuse to avail themselves
of the means which nature abund-
antly offers. In particular, do teach
ers of the lower grades fail to have
their pupils study lessons out-of-
doors. Distrusting their powers to
interest their pupils in what they
see daily, or Sinking the labor
which is entailed on them by TAX
ing their class TO the hillside or
river, or totally unappreciative OF
the value of such aids in their
teaching of geography, teachers re-
strict their labors to the four walls
of the school.room and to the little
manual which is supplied them by
the school authorities.
Agassiz, the great teacher and
naturalist, had his experience with
this sort of teaching and he gives
record of il which every teacher
would do well to consider. He says:
I'm geography. let us not at first re-
sort to books. but let us take a class
into the fields, point out the hills,
valleys, rivers and lakes. and let the
pupils learn out-of. doors the points
of the compass; and then, having
shown them these things, let them
compare the representations with
the realities, and the maps will
have meaning othcm. Then you
can go on with the books. and they
will understand what these things
mean. and will know what is north,
east, south and west; and will not
merely read the letters, ", f., s., W..
on square piece of paper and per-
haps think that the United States
are about az large as the paper
they learn from. When | was in
the College of Neufchatcl | desired
to introduce such IL system of teach
ing geography. l was told it could
not be done, and my request to be
allowed to instruct the youngest
children in the institution was re-
fused. rcsorted to other means,
and took my own childrcn-myo old
est boy of six years, and my girls,
four and n half and two and half
wears old-and invited the children
of my neighbors. Some came upon
the arms of their mothers; others
could already walk without assist
ancc. These children, the oldest
only six years old, | took upon Il
hill above the city of Ncufchatcl
and there showed the magnificent
peaks of the Alps, and told them
the names of those mountains and
Of the beautiful lakes opposite. /
then showed them the same things
on raised map. and they immcdi'
atcly recognized the localities, and
were soon able To do the same
thing on an ordinary map. From
that day geography was no longer
dry study. but desirable part OF
their observation-disclosures.
