part of composition is descriptive,
AMI what part is story. This grade
was one day this week assigned to
write story of a COW which had
halted by the school building and
taken peep in at the window.
The pupils were left to draw upon
their own imaginations for the par
tjcular thoughts which pervaded the
cows mind as she peered throug the
windows of learning's temple. One
~ the little scholars explained that
the COW wanted to come to school,
Iit when she saw the teacher she
was frightened away. One said she
wanted to eat the hayseed out of
me of the scholars hair. Many
agreed that she wanted an education
and was actually trying to find the
entrance to the school house.
But it remained for one boy,
whom we shall call Charles, to reach
the goal of true philosophy through
the realm of imagination. Charles
said the COW thought she would 90
to school a few days, after which she
could teach school and earn enough
money to buy ton hay, which
would be sufficient to last her all
winter. 1t may be the author knew
not how well he wrote. But let us
"nalyze his thought.
A great many persons acting up
on the impulse ascribed to the COW
believe that few days attendance
at school are sufficient to fit them
for the Office of teacher, and so en-
ter the practice of the profession
before they have accomplished the
art of teaching, or even conceived
that there is art in the teachers
work. They commence teaching a:
makeshift, thinking only of the
comforts the wages will provide
and failing utterly to comprehend
the onerous responsibility attending
the exercise of the office. For al
such, it were better that they bough
and ate ton of hay as soon as they
had obtained the price. But to EARn
the price is what they can never do
is they live to be as old as th'
mother-in-law joke.
