carpet was covered with white crash
and within the embrasure of the win
dows was an altar las pure as purity"
and upon either side was two great
columns Spotless, save for the delicate
smilax that entwined itself about
them. From them shone the gentle
light of dozens of white tapers and
from these passed the ribbons that
outlined the nuptial aisle. On the inn
proVised altar and outlining the man
ties were many candles until the room
suggested the holy chancel of some
rarely beautiful cathedral White
roses bent from the vases on the man
tie and their perfume made fragrant
the atmosphere.
Just before the nuptial hour Mr.
William McWiliams, accompanied by
Mr. Howard Tinsley on the piano and
Mr.. Arthur West on the cello, sang ex-
quisitely 20, Thou Sublime Sweet
Evening Star" from Tanhauser.

heralded the coming of the wedding
party. The ushers entered the room
by the hall door and stood well to the
side
From the porch the officiating min
| lister, Rev. John P. Wardlaw and Rev.
Luke Johnson came into the room.
Then the ring bearer, young Barring

showered with lilies of the valley.
Miss Izlar's gown was shirred white
organdy with scroll work of val lace
and she carried white carnations tied
with green tulle.
In the drawing room where the ele-
CANT wedding supper was served, the
decorations were very artistic and
beautiful, the colors used being pink
and white.

date the origin of their greatness
back to some man or woman
once their teacher. Then honor
those to whom honor is due. Pa
rents, do not talk about the school
teacher before your children, un-
less you say something good. Do
not allow your children to utter
one syllable disrespectfully. Be
fore expressing your verdict on
the child's testimony, 90 to the
teacher, talk the matter over with
him-go to him in the right spirit;
speak to him kindly, deliberately,
calmly and unbiased He is your
friend-your child belongs to him,
to the family, to the school. School
teaching is his business. He has
spent time, money, energy and
midnight oil in the preparation of
his profession, and his way is more
likely to be the best. In the mean
time, as we'll as at all times, it is
better to make your child see that
yielding on your part is best for
the child, where if an opposite
course is pursued, it may be the
child's ruin. Talking against your
teacher casts reflection on the
Judgment of the trustees-a refec-
ton on them throws a shadow on
you. In short. every time you cen
sure, condemn or Islander your
teacher you are defaming your
self. School, to be the center of
power in any community, must
have a hearty co operation of the
entire community. Every patron
must manifest an interest. Every
investment in that direction will
draw good interest morally, soci-
ally, financially and spiritually.
See that your child goes to school
on the first day and every day
throughout the year. See that he
is regular, prompt and punctual,
and, above all, be attentive to his
department. The education of an
individual depends no less on good
habits formed as upon book learn
ing. Among the best habits formed
in school are those of industry,
observation, correct
judgment, desiring to do good to
others, and doing good. Habit is
the life or the death of the soul.
Mental training ends in habit.
Patrons, pupils, teachers, take
up your respective duties cheer
fully and in fear of the Lord.

PARENT AND TEACHER.

by Prof. j. b. Bond, Galveston, Tex.
Some one, somewhere, expressed
the thought that God could not
alone direct His children, so he
He created Mothers. Thus to them
fell the special duty of training
the child, but to them, too, fall
manifold duties of household, wife
hood, sisterhood, and motherhood;
they must needs look to another
source for assistance, and teachers
were created. Then as the popu-
lation increased, schools, colleges,
universities, and institutions of
various kinds followed in their or
der. From this point of view, it
is easy to see that close relation
exists between parents and teach
ers.
Let parent and teacher walk
hand in hand, talk face to face
with each other, for they must be
CO. laborers in the holy work of
education. The parent cannot
throw off his share of guiding
Alright the young mind upon the
teacher; there must be co.opera-
ton of home aud school. A teach
er has the training of the child
during the most impressive period
of life. His personal influence is
felt seven hours day, five days
week, eight or ten months a year.
His personality leaves its impress
upon bis pupils. Your child is
the teachers now more than yours;
then the teacher, next to the moth
er, is responsible for the ideals of
the young. There exists relation
between teacher and pupil. He is
of your boy, your girl, a
man, a woman-he is a character
builder. His work is the finest of
The fine arts. While others make
poetry, pictures, and songs, he
makes men and women harac
.er. The true teacher is an exam
pie of all that is ennobling, edify-
ng and truth inspiring in the eyes
If the child. He is an ideal man
,r woman. He stands for culture,
and humanity. Seek the
eacher's acquaintance; visit him;
invite him to your home; make
lin your friend. He needs your
ympathy, your cooperation. His
interest is partly yours.
Then fall in with the teachers
,lans; bring your children In rank;
elp them with their lessons-it
will help you as well as them.
Tisit the school, not to criticise,
mt to gam the necessary informa-
ion to encourage the teacher and
upil.
Since the teachers influence is
8cond only to mothers we read
y see that he can make his power
bit as no one else on earth. He !
IN incite ambition in the dull, !
.imulate the sluggish to activity, !
