part. The school room should look
just as pretty as it can be made.
The important part of the whole
is the address OF the teacher. He
has only to indorse what has been
said about regularity of attendance,
promptness, obedience, etc. Empha-
size the necessity Of books. It is bad
economy to send a child to school
without the books required for his
studies. Speak of the value of day
in school, the difference an education
makes in earning power in after
years, the disadvantages of day
lost.
Much is gained by such a plan as
this. A good impression is made
upon the pupils and the parents have
committed themselves to the essential
things. The first half day of the
school has been well spent.
Ii remains TO be said that in calling
the roll you should have the name OF
every pupil in the district You may
inquire about those who are not
present and express the hope that
they may enter very soon.
II might be well on this occasion
to organize or set time for organic
ing literary society for the neigh
borhood.
