Mary fathers and mothers do not re-
alizc fully, perhaps. the true value of
home study for the children. The in
tiucncc of home training is felt in
every school. Take the boy or girl
who has the proper training at home,
and the teacher has no trouble with
him in the school room. There may
be exceptions but certainly it is the
general rule. If lie is taught obedience
ut home, he will be respectful to the
teacher. But the man OF woman who
controls and disciplines the pupil who
is unruly ut home. has Il very difficult
task to perform. Home should teach
the prOpricty Of social life. the basal
principles of true etiquette, self re-
spcct, respect for others, fixed pur-
pose to brighten life for other people,
manners ut tho table and in the parlor,
