Come and see the methods and prog
Tess. Some parents allow other duties
to be their excuse for neglect in this
important matter. but there can be
nothing more important than the edu
cation and training of our children.
Thr is nothing which SO gladdens
q child's heart as to feel that a visit
is made by q parent or friend because
of an interest felt for him or her in the
school life.
Could parents realize the toll, the
patience, the brain work, the some
times discOuragements and heartaches
that have been the lot of the faithful
teacher as she has worked day after
day to bring her pupils to a state Of
proficiency. | am sure they would be
