GENERAL.
(By c. l.. Newbersp; Supt.)

Many difficulties. that are eXper-
fenced by parents and teachers, are
due to an Incorrect understanding OF
the environments OF parents, pupils
and teachers. If parents should oc-
casionally call upon the teacher and
have Il careful talk about their com
mon charges, or il teachers would
enter into q cop%artRegship with par
ents, in tAe training of school child
rem. and learn Of the child's circum-
stances at home and elsewhere. many
reXatious problems would undOubt-
eddy be solved without worry or fric-
ton.
Too frequently parents imagine
that it requires net only the child'>
efforts but also their W to prevent
the teacher formulating advantage OF
Il seemingly %tyrlnnical authority in
vested in teachers by Boards of Edu-
cation and by school laws. 1t is UNI
doubleday true that teachers are
sometimes t%yraraaical or unjust, or il
may be mistaken, but as Il rule
ii teacher is entirely sensible of
the fact that her reputation to a great
extent depends upon her success in
training the children under her in
struction. Very rarely will "a teacher
purposely adopt u course that will
weaken her power as an instructor.
Parents should therefore bear in mind
that the teacher il striving to make
OF the boy or girl just what will be
for the good OF both pupi! and teacher.
The true teacher will have other in
lerests ia the child's success other
than the obtaining of a professional
reputation. Tile true teacher will
love and feed the developing mind as
ii parent cares for the helpless child
out of sympathy fer the struggling
soul. That one should have no place
in the school roon, who does not
delight to see the intellect awaken or
who does not understand the child
mind and its tribulations, defeats and
victories.
The average teacher is possessed of
the above qualities but to parents
they sometimes appear obscured or
lacking. but the parent must remem-
Der that even the fond mother some
times becomes careWarn and impa-
tient. Why then expect more from
one under whose charge from fifty to
one hundred mere babes are ON
times placed? Zone OF our primary
rooms had an enrolment of 90 in
October 1907
There never was. or ever will be a
surer and shorter method, of rearing
4 lawless child, than to- discuss a
teachers weakness or to criticize a
teacher in his presence. Obedience
is Heavens first law and without
which the universe and all nature
would be chaos and confusion. No
pupil will succeed at school unless his
mind is in a receptive state. No
mind can be in a receptive
'tate if he is in open or secret rebel
ion against his instruction or in
'tructor.
Only too frequently do we see par
,nts indOrse a rebelliOus students
when they permit him to with
lraw from school upon some slight
,rovocation or pretext. The arpu-
nent is advanced that the boy is old
enough TO shift" for himself. Yes,
o is the man, but it would be pre-
..osterous for any man to suppose that
lie himself could ever be a law unto
himself and do what ever be a
aw unto himself and do what ever
