ligious principles in our pupils. Lei
a man be naturally upright, honest;
and gifted by nature with d detesta-
ton Of all that is mean and vile. A
day will surely come when interest,
influence, and passion will tempt
him from his manly virtue. He may
resist the solicitation to evil, and he
may not. II he is victor there must
have been powerful motives to re-
strain him, and who will deny that
a sincere religious conviction OF
WRONG is not "most" mighty re-
straint. We appeal to the parents of
our pupils since the success OF St.
Joseph's College depends as much
on them as on us. We ask them not
only to send their boys to us, but
specially request that they impress
on the minds Of their children that
we are not only their teachers but
their friends. Authority is heavy
burden to young and old unless it is
tempered by sweetness. This ac-
counts for SO many blighted lives.
Either the ruler had no love for the
subject, or the latter believed not in
his masters sincerity. This impres
sion on the minds of children, as re-
CARDS their teachers, is very COM
mon; but, in many cases, it is mere
prejudice, springing from childish
timidity. That il is an evil produc-
tive Of much harm to tile scholar, is
sadly realized by all experienced
teachers when they vainly strive TO
win the phpil's confidence. Let par
ents, then, help the teacher. Though
deceit is widespread, not one man
in ten thousand would doubt his
mothers world Implicit faith in our
parents grows with our growth.
Therefore, parents, help your sons
wisely. Make them attend school
penctually. Teach them 10 love
scholastic duties, pointing out to
your inexperienced lads that knowl-
edge is worth its trouble. Tell them
their teacher is not a task-master,
but a friend. Your sons will believe
you, and you viii thus secure them
a lasting good.
We carefully watch over the con-
duct and morals of each and every
student. No ihsnbordinate nor vic
ious boy is received nor retained in
the institution. All are expected to
conduct themselves according to the
principles Of honor and manliness.
Politeness, obedience, mutual re-
spect, and kindness are obligatory
on all. At recreation, games and
amusements are encouraged among
the boys.
Our college has many kind friends
who have proved their concern in
its success. We hope the coming
session will find their interest un-
abated. We want TO see our school
rooms filed, therefore send your sons
to us. If you can pay you will have
the satisfaction of helping on a good
work. If you are in straightened cir
and Cannot" pay, bring
your boy TO us and we will be lenient
about the school fee. We want your
boys and will try 10 benefit them.

"A visitor Discovers That Our Shade
Trees Are Infected with It.
B. ]. Rhodes Of Berkeley was in the
city yesterday. and In walking about
our residence streets he discovered
what we ought to have known. and
probably great many do know. tha,
the San Jose scale is swarming upon
many OF our street shade trees.
from one of line Of umbrella trees

he took section of bark, last years

Union" office for inspection The scale
has, in this instance, so covered the
bark that not even a speck of the
wood or skin of the bark can be seen
The scale simply blankets the whole
surface
AS Mr.. Rhodes well says, Of what use
is 1t to compel orchardists to spray
their trees and fight the fruit insect
pests, when in city streets they are bred
IN sufficient quantity to be scattered
over and infect the whole region?
Ihere certainly should be given atten-
ton to this matter at once. The San
Jose scale in our shade trees is a Wis
ftation that is indeed an aff1iction. The
trustees should at once require all af-
iected trees to be treated thoroughly
There are other trees than the um-
brella tree affected by the scale. and II

Open-Air Concerts.

Eds. "Record-Un Here 1t is
April 10th and we have not heard
word in reference to our usual open
air concerts, and I for one protest
against such inactivity on the part of
our young men. We all know, and es-
pecially we young ladies, that leap
year comes but once in four years, and
I know Of nothing so conducive in as
sisting girls Of manageable age in get
ting a beau as open-air concerts, and
if permitted I would suggest to our
worthy Mayor that he call together the
gentlemen who gave us the delightful
double concert of a few years ago, and
I believe they were J. E. Mills, General
j. c. MARITIME, E. J. Devlin and Cap
tain E. M. Sheehan, and have him
urge them to hustle themselves in this
matter. Times are hard, but we cannot
do without these concerts. Please do not
use my name, but I shall give it as I
believe it is usual to do so. With many
thanks in advance for this favor.

Obscene Posters.

Obscene Posters.
Eds. Record Union: believe that
every man should try to keep his own
household as free from all things de-
grading as possible, but that no good
citizen should stop there. He should
have little of the same feeling for the
town in which he lives. Every scandal
occurring in his city should be of mo-
ment to him, though many blocks away
from his own door. In other words, he
should have some pride in keeping his
city as clean as possible. In such city
there will be better people. l have been
impressed of late, as many more must
have been, by the character of the
posters on the billboards about the
city. Some OF them are almost obscene.
have been surprised that the City
Trustees have been so long blind to
this evil, or that the Chief Of Police has
not detailed a man for an hour or so
to perform the pleasant duty of tearing
them down. I leave it to any right
thinking man if this is not an evil that
should in some way be met. It is not
pleasant to anyone Of delicate feeling
to be forced to turn his head when
walking with his family to get away
from Objectionable figures and still
more Objectionable reading. Those
things are bad enough in our daily
journals, but how much worse are they
when enlarged many fold and spread
out where the turning of page will
not take them from the eye or thought.
If no law will reach the case, then
why not have few sensible citizens
band together and make 1t their mission
to take these shameful pictures and
signs from wherever they may be
placed. If arrested he or they may
have a trial by "his peers" and they
will not convict him, but rather join
with him in the good work
