MANNERS AND EDUCATION.

In delivering the Founders day address the COM
day exercises of Lawrenceve school, TEen-
n j. last week. Bishop Potter declared that modern
education dismissed good manners. 'We getting to
be in such hurry in America, he said, that the ord
nary cviltes disappearing of education and
our life"
While it is that manners, like charity, should
be practced first in the home is also that the
school room offers excellent opportunity the teach

personal example and by we'll chosen anecdotes she
impress on her charges the value of kind hearts, with
out these, of course, poeness becomes
But II the home training is directly opposed these
school lessons, teachers accomplish little.
1t is to be regretted that in the majority of
parents who weltodo false standard of worth
for their children Apropos of this Bishop Potter Said
I'VE face to face with great social problem
corning which the minds of of moving upon
distinctly wrong lines. No who is conscious of the
social and industrial situation be unconscious of the
fact that the classes have dred away from the Masses
