scHooLeoY IN ANCIENT TIMES.

How a Roman Pupil of 1000 Years
Ago Set Down His Days Doings.
Something quite new in the form of
scholars has made its appearance in
Germany. Into this "Greek Reader"
have been packed all sors of delightful
and almost unknown specimens of the
literature of ancient Greece, such as
fables, fairy tales, stories, ETC., adapted
for young people. There are also exam
pies of the work done by the pupils Of
the Graeco-Roman schools some twen-
ty centuries ago. The following, for in
stance, is the account of his daily rou-
tine work by a Roman schoolboy. He
writes:
81 wake up before sunrise, leave my
bed, sit down with my straps and shoes
washing is brought to me. I wash first
my hands, then my face, take off my
nightcap, put on my undergarment,
anoint and comb my hair, arrange my
neck cloth, put on a white upper gar
ment and wrapper. Then l leave my
bedroom, together with my tutor and
my maid, salute my father and mother,
and leave the house." The mixture Of
Spartan abstinence in leaving home
without a breakfast and of the alto
gether un-Spartan luxury of an attend
ant tutor and maid is suggestive
The youth goes on to explain, with a
deliciously pedantic air: 81 reach the
school, enter and say 'Good-morning,
my teacher He returns the salutation.
My slave hands states, penboxla and pen
Gil to me. 1 sit down in my place and
write, and then I cross out what l have
written. / write from copy and show
it to the teacher. He corrects and
crosses out what is bad. Then he makes
me read aloud. Meanwhile the small
boys have to learn. their letters and
spell out syllables. One of the bigger
boys reads to them. Others write
verses and l go in for spelling compe-
tition. Then l decline and analyza
some verses. When l have done all this
I 20 home to brea akfast. / change my
clothes and then eat white bread and
olives, cheese, figs and nuts and drink
some cold water. After breakfast | go
back to school, find the teacher read
ing aloud, and he says, Now we will
begin at the beginning.
This schoolboy performance, says the
Westminster Gazette. goes long way
to show once more that there Is moth
trivial round of the modern schoolboy.
