written by Miss Dolphn Woods.
My opinion does not coincide with
that of Miss Kennedy concerning The
subject of choosing professions. If a
child selects some good profession, it is
well enough TO pursue it. She thinks
children should choose for themselves
and If they show an especial talent for
some one thing, let them follow it. Show
ing an especial liking for some one thing
is not always an indication of wish to
cultivate ones self. Suppose student
shows disposition to quit school alto
gether and become an expert gambler or
loafer. and cares for nothing else. If
parents did not make them 60 TO school
they would be worse than day laborers.
The above essays were written by
fourth grade pupils who have had
but few weeks practice in such
work. MAY ZUMALT. teacher.

Essay by Miss Georgia Moe.


Profession.
Essay by Miss Georgia Moe
Many people select certain profession
for their children while they are yet
small; and they endeavor to educate them
Tor that one thing whether they have n
talent in that direc' ion, or are adapted
for something else. / think it simply
wasted time and money TO try TO make IL
child lawyer or doctor against his
will. A child should choose his own
profession. and not take up something
he does not like; give him his way in
his choice, whatever it is.
Should Child Choose His Own Pro-
fessiOn.
Essay by Miss Ida Kennedy.
Some parents are very foolish tor
choosing some professional study for
their children while they are yet small
They do not wait Till their children show
a talent for something, or have any wish
TO do what they think they could do. A
father will send a child to college and
educate him for one thing, then wonder
why his son or daughter proves Il failure
1t is simply time and money wasted
Very often parents do not approve of the
profession the children choose for them
selves and prevent them from pursuing
that study. They generally amount TO
nothing but day laborers

The record of deaths by railway
accident in the United States, as given in
government report, is sufficiently ap'
palling to justify the demand that at.
tention be given to life-saving appliances
1t is not sufficient to point out that more
people propOrtlOnally are killed in various
other ways, or that the chance of being
struck by lightning is greater than thai
of being killed while travelling on the
steam cars. The point is that there are
means of avoiding much of the de-
struction of life on railways, and tina
only the parsimony of the railway cor
porations stands in the way of theiI
adoption.

and although receipts have dropped of a
little, there is no scarcity of any kind II we

run short this time OF year. These come
within such small compass that they are
hardly worth quoting. as they are mostly
