CAREFUL GREEK PARENTS.
Boys Were Escorted to School Just
 as Girls Are Now.

as Girls Are Now.
 The extraordinary care that the Gre clan boy received in his formative years made his moral training more effective than that incuIcated by the most careful of modern parents His general educa- tion, coupled with skillful and continu- ous physical instruction, produced a moral cultivation very similar and fully as strict as that the Christian father seems necessary for his daughters.
 A pedagogue, generally an old and trusted slave, led the boys to school and called for them after it closed, carried the books looked out for the little boys, kept the older ones from fighting and falling into bad company and had a general oversight of their conduct and street form. He was by no means a gchoolmaster or even private tutor, not even being allowed to enter the school room. Oftentimes ignorant in the ex- treme, he was chosen simply because of his loyalty to the family and some times, fear,' because he was unfit for any other occupation. Though the butt of the boys ridicule as we'll as that of the comic poets and low wits of the day, he did an incalculable service in prevent ing vicious companionships and keeping pure the minds of those intrusted to his charge.
 The child was never sent off to board ing school, but boys attended the day school; town life prevailed. Besides, that sentiment that zealously guarded the boys purity with pedadogue from his sixth to his sixteenth year could brook no intermission of personal o, IT. sight. Education was essentially pri- vate, the state having jurisdiction sim ply over the moral and not the profes- sional standing of the teacher.-Popu- lar Snianna Mnnthlv
