d ground for confidence in the

fi@d ground for confidence in the
teacher.
Some Of those things that inspire
confidence in the teacher are an attrac-
tive school house, good furniture, pleas
ant surroundings, the means for pro-
vl1ing physical comforts at school and
in the boarding place. Harmony among
the patrons, friendly calls from pa
trSns, kind and encouraging words and
BY no means least, practical assistance
in making preparation for the opening
OF the school and for the maintenance
of the school room, its belongings and
keeping the premises in suitable con-
ddion.
To say the least, it discourages a
J teacher when he finds that the people
whom he is serving have barns that
are better than their school house;
when the community declares itself too
poor to provide fuel or even a service
able stove or bucket and dipper for
him and the pupils to use at school;
and that in oruer to get these and other
actual neceSsaries, he must buy them
| himself-probably even go in debt
among strangers with the prospect of
paying out Of the proceeds of discount
ed warrants.
Let parent and teacher too study
their duties and each do as far as posi-
bic what he cOnceives to De his share of
the work Of the school without wait
ing for some other person to take the
lead. Why wait, on another? If, in a
line Of battle several miles long, each
soldier should wait for a fellow soldier
to lead the charge there would be no
charge. The tug of war comes when
rank and file rush forward together as
one man in their united strength re-
ioicing as a strong man to run a race.

COOPERATION IN SCHOOL MAN
AGEMENT.-Part Second.

There are few teachers, we presume,
rho do not urge upon their pupils the
;mnortance of an education and expa-
tate tate on the advantages which accure
os result of ones being properly edu-
cated. When teacher does so the pu-
nils naturally expect to find in him an
example, Of the truly educated person.
Consequently when they realize that
their teacher is incompetent to perform
tbe ordinary duties of business, of citi-
,pnship, of social life; that he is ignor-
ant of the world, of literature, of his
tory, of current events; that he is rude
IN his manners, slOven in his dress, de-
nraved in his tastes and not ambitious
hr higher accomplishments It is but
natural that such pupils should fail tn
he inspired by him with a love for
study and a desire for an education.
Cooperation is lost as natural
consequence. 1t is likewise natural
that parents with larger knowledge
Of what an education should be like
wise lose interest in the school and fail
TO cooperate with the teacher.
Interest begets interest. The teacher
who enters upon his new duties with
zeal and we'll formed plans thereby
nanifests capacity and will enlist at
once the cooperation of his patrons
and pupils. By arriving early at the
place Of his employment, by making
/ the school room and grounds as at
4 tractiye as possible for the opening Of
scHool, by a few friendly calls and
even by polite requests for assistance,
confidence is inspired and cooperation
secured.
But it is not sufficient that the people
have confidence in the teacher. The
8 teacher needs abundant confidence in
the people to inspire him. We believe
that there are as many communities in
5 which the teacher does not find in the
people sufficient ground for confidence
as there are in which the people fail to

dertaken as their work the keeping in
order Of their own premises and the
beautifying Of the public parks. One
hundred and seventeen dollars Of their
limited funds was spent last year on
Ine parks. which is all the association
has any charge of or control over. They
deplOre the condition Of the public
streets, but this work is entirely out OF
their province, as above stated. Many
members of the T. l. A. are heavy tax
payers and feel that the streets should
be kept by the city.
Tallahassee is one Of the most beau
tiful cities in the State and gives back
many fold in attractions all the labor
and adornment bestowed on it.
1t is hoped in the coming year that
many rough places may be .made
smooth and many unsightly ones made
beautiful by the united efforts of the
city government and the Tallahassee
Improvement Association.

Hemorroids, or piles, whether pro-

painlessly removed without surgery by
using the greatest discovery of the CEN

convinced is the doctor of the efficacy
Of his remedy in removing forever
every VeStige of this dread disease, that
he has instructed his agents to refund
the price paid in every case of failure.
This gives the public much needed

Geo. B. Ellis has been acting in that
