 World.

The assignment of teachers by Prof J. | Hiaemon for the ensu- irg year savers o: wise selections and jodieious apportionment. Pine Bluff has every reason to be proud of those who will instruct their children in the school rooms. The personnel of the teachers, who are the graduates and holders Of de grees from some of tbe best col. leges and universities in this coun- try warrants our. assertion. Their efficiency will be corro5orated by the results attained which will be evident at the closing of school.
 The public schools arc ever on tbe qui vive when it comes 10 securing the mouiders of the youths mind Tbere is DO better prophet Of the future than the past, and the con tinued utilization of tha parents in conjunction with the teachers will enhance the value of the education of their children.
 Prof Hinemon is an uneeasing and all untring worker in the edu. cationai worla; he always sees that the advan tages of a good pnblic achool education are demonstrated clearly and forcloly; evidences of this fact are attested in the many bright pupils who now occupy re sponsible positions ID this and other cines. Our community is indeed and have every reasoL to be sot proud of the acquisition of such la dies and gentlemen as the superin tendent has secured fer puide posts for the young.
 Our schools are among the best in the South and cur teachers are the equal of any in the State.

tNGRATlTUDE, THE INSTRU- MENT USED BY A SON

TOLD TO LEAVE HOME.
\ Would-be Lawyer Has Yet to Learn to Honor Thy Fath-

The channel of gratitude. ktHE ness and love in some human beings is like the instrument in 8 machine; to last they have to re fed. Kindness bestowed from father to son should be lasting link. the magnetism to keep all that is dear and sweet In life together; but alasi sometimes the serpent you piek up. warm and take care of, fondle and press to your bosom Is the firet to administer a sting.
 One Of the saddest and most pitia- ble incidents in years happened with in the confines of our city recently; the sweetest hopes of life, the autici- patton of enjoy ing old ages bless ings was destroyed within the walls of a once happy home by the son telling the father that he must tsleaye.
 E Q the youth the sweetest worda are tbat of home, fathenand mother: what must 1t be to the gray haired old man. the father of the soh who dwells within lis walls? The haven of rest under such circumstances b : comes the haven Of discord, discon tentment and regretl Payne has truly said that, be It ever so hum ble there is no place like home 1t is 9 lamenable fact that the Philip pine Islands have not all the HBeivil- ized people in the world. nor the .eannibt.s: neither does history tee0rd all the Neros. We can kill 8 man and death closes his lips in silence; the heart that once beat so strongly will throt no longer; sorrow will be portrayed by the crape upon tue door. But what sign can we DOT tray for the aged kind heart that has been pierced by the weapon of unkindness. AL unhind word ad- mfnistered to just, kind and loving father who has spent his life in car ing for his son; giving him money, loving him us only a father can, to be the recipient of the "unkindest cut of all''-ingratitude
