THERE has been much gossip this
week all through the town about GER
tain teacher in the North Milford Public
Schools, correcting and furnishing a
scholar The case was reported to the
commissioners and after an investigation
the teacher was upheld in his position
and justified IN correcting the child in
the mild manner in which he did An
other case similar to the above took place
in the South Milford Schools, where one
of the young lady teachers very lightly
boxed the ears of an uuruly scholar with
a book. The child was impudent to the
teacher aud she took the proper means
to teach il a lesson. In neither case was
there any damage done or much pain in
fiicted. If parents do not desire their
children corrected by their teachers they
should see that they are taught manners
aud obedience at home Il would tend
to greatly demoralize a school aud after
a time ruin its influence for good entirely
if one impudent and generally bad child
was allowed to do as il pleased. There
must be perfect order in the school room
and the child that persists in breaking
the rules or ia showing disrespect for a
teacher should be punished, lightly, and
if tins does not have the desired effect
then the teacher should expel the child
from the school and the commissioners
should sustain such action There must
be order in the school room or naturally
good children will be contaminated aud
ruined by the example OF few bad ones,
and the school proper influence for good
and for the dissemination of knowledge
be seriously impaired. Parents should
constantly bear in mind the truth that
children when in the presence of the
parents are vastly different, sometimes
almost the direct opposite what they are
away and out Of the sight Of parents 1t
is natural and easy for us all to think
our own children perfect and the children
of our neighbors and friends very imper-
feet.

aud yet they will no donbt demand all
the profit OF the peach crop for hauling

this year in rates on peaches of fifty per
cent at least If a car of peaches from
California costs less than three hundred
dollars to New York or Boston, certainly
a car from Milford to Boston. one-seventh

THE steamer Frederick will not leave

is her regular day for sailing for Freder-
lea, as some repairs are to be made. She
will leave the next day. however, from Pier
Fl North Wharves, foot OF Callowhill
street, at S D. N. There is not any change
otherwise than as above stated This is
the finest boat on the Delaware bay and
river and trip on her is a very enjoya-
bic way to get the salt sea air. A season
could be spent on this boat. with state
room, meals aud passage paid for less
money than 1t costs to pass tine time at a
decent hotel at any summer resort. We
suggest steamer parties during the sum
mer to Philadelphia and return to Fred
erica in place of 50 many beach parties.
The expense of such a trip is not much
more than day at any one of our near
by beaches costs. Parties of twenty
or more could dance on the hurricane
deck and enjoy themselves in other ways
that to the worldly are pleasant.

PEACH TREES are in bloom as are also
strawberry plants, CHEEKY and pear trees
The peach orchards are beautiful, indeed,
to look upon Thousands of trees can
now be viewed at a single glance, which
apparently are immense Towering plants
and the sight is pleasing one, truly.
We. who are so used to seeing the trees
IN bloom. do not properly appreciate
such beauty. The city cousins who come
along later in the season SHOULD come
now If they want to view the country
when It is at the zenith Of its beauty.
