Of these matters, however, let the teacher
recognize always the superiority Of the
home and its sacredness, and never, either
directly or indirectly attempt to weaken
the authority of the parent.
Herbart gave to the world the idea that
character building Is the chief purpose Of
school training, and while LIDO not fully
agree with the Herbartians In all of their
methods, am convinced that character IS
the summon bonum of all true education.
Character IS not the inspiration of genius:
It Is building up gradually, line upon line.
1t IS the sum total of heredity, environ
ment, and aspiration. When one has
complete possession of himself, so that he
IS absolute master of his passions, and
absolute owner of his faculties, he Is the
owner of the greatest gift this earth can
confer. On the other hand, the saddest
sight the world ever beheld is a human
life, brilliant on the intellectual side, but
on the moral side all charred and ruined.
The world. then, has been the great
school, experience the hard teacher, and
life the unlearned lesson.
Finally, the school and the home are
one in purpose; let them be one in method
and achievement. Let them unite all of
their forces in laying the foundation
principles of noble character in the young
life OF this country, SO that with these
principles finally imbedded and rock
ribbed in the mental constitution of our
children, we may safely lay upon their
shoulders the mighty responsibilities of a
new generation.

A wonderful circumstance occurred in
this community few days ago. A dog

following the dog. One day the dog was
seen out in the woods running and the
goat right in behind him. We thought
the goat was trying to catch the dog, but
we found that the dog was trying to catch
a rabbit and the goat was trying to keep
up with the dog.

The Home and the School From
the Standpoint Of q Teachef.

duties, but such a course is fatal to hi:
power for good ii the community and his
usefulness In the school room. There was
q time when the teacher, If proficient ii
the school room, could lead the life Of q
recluse, but that time is past, especially SC
far as the rural school is concerned Such
course would subject him to the neglect
and even the contempt Of the people Of
the community.
The primary duty of the teacher is tc
educate, but his sphere.of influence should
not be limited to the circle Of youngsters
who gather in the school building from
day to day. He must adopt himself to
local conditions, and he must do this
without losing his own individuality if he
expects to take hold Of the life and
thought of the community in such a way
as to control these for the good Of the
school.
Now, let US consider briefly some of the
questions connected with the home and
school that come up for settlement.
The first of these is regular and prompt
attendance at school. The conflict here is
inevitable. Tne teacher realizes the i'm.
|portance of regular attendance. He fully
appreciates the loss to irregularity, not only
to the irregular pupil, but to the class as
q whole. He is, therefore, naturally
enough, anxious that the pupils attend
regularly and promptly.
On the other hand, the parent does not
fully appreciate the loss to his own child
on account Of irregularity, and seldom, or
never thinks Of the loss to. other pupils in
the school. Often the teacher receives a
request from the parent that the child be
excused before the regular time to dismiss
school. The reason is sometimes stated,
sometimes not.
How, then, is the teacher to meet these
constantly recurring demands from the
home? In answer to this question, shall
say, first, that the teac her ought always
to bear in mind that the parent has prior
claim on the time of the child, and that all
interference with this claim is at best I'M
fortunate. do not mean to say, how
ever, that the teacher can do nothing to-
ward the correction of this evil Much
can be done, and ought to be done, but
done in such way as not to tresspass
unduly on the rights of the parent.
In dealing with this question it is i'm
portant that all absences from school and
all tardy marks appear on the report
which is sent to the parent at the end of
each month. This information carried to
the parent every month does away in a
large measure with truanoy and with
lettering on the way to school, for. how
ever vigorously the parent may assert his
right to keep his child out of school day
now and then, he certainly does not want
his child to play truant, and to loiter along
the way.
Much can be accomplished, too. by
occasionally talking to the pupils about
the Importance of regularity and punctu-

atty, showing The harm Of lrresularity
and Hardness. not onlyto those guilty Of
these nffenSes. bit ia the entire school

and Hardness. not onlyto those guilty o
these offenses, but to the entire school.
Another cause Of conflict between TIL,
home and school is the necessity placed
upon the school of intoxicating ideals and
standards often different sometimes radi
cally differentiation those prevailing In
the home. Take for example the question
Of obedience and respect for authority
Undoubtedly the school must demand
obedience SO far as its own regulations
are concerned, and ought to inculcate re.
respect for authority as virtue.
In many homes it IS the fashion to over
look childish Waywardncss and wiIlful-
ness, and neglect to enforce obedience to
authority. In homes Of this kind children
defy the parents. and the latter, BY prac-
ticing q maudlln sentimentality, develop
the sehildren into young anarchists, so
that when the child enters it is law unto
itself With considerable portion Of
the school made up of this sort of material
is it any wonder that the school encounters
trouble in the administration Of discipline?
Especially when the discipline is intended
to inculcate standards of conduct different
from those with which the child is ac-
quainted in the home?
Now, | am not an advocate of harsh
measures. | do not believe that brutality
IS necessary in the enforcement of dlscip.
line, but ! am thoroughly convinced that
the time has come when the firmness of
the teacher must in measure take the
place Of the sentimentality INDUCED in by
many misguided parents. 1t is better to
force the boy to behave than have him be-
come bold and defiant braggart, or worse
still, bully and sneak.
But this question of intoxicating new
ideals and standards opens up the entire
field of moral training as related to the
school. Here the teacher must exercise
common sense and sound Judgment. It
IS usually better to advise the children
what course to pursue than to criticise
what they have already done Moral
training should be positive, not negative.
Condemnation in general statements is
always to be avoided. The child who has
a father addicted to the habit of smoking
Indignantly rejects the statement ofthe
teacher that mo gentleman will smoke"
whereas the father, although he is anxious
enough that his boy should never smoke,
does not relish the idea of having the
child taught that its father is no gentle
man.
In dealing with this question of con-
duct, as in all other questions, would
suggest that frequent personal conversa-
tons with parents are desirable. The
father who smokes, sWears and drinks is
opposed to these habits in his boys. The
parent who is rude does not want his
children to be rude, And right here is
opened up one Of the greatest avenues of
usefulness to the wise teacher. Not only
does this give him opportunity to incul-
cate higher ideals in the children, but
even the standard of the home is some
times raised by consulting the parent as
to conduct in school which has really
grown out of conduct in the home. In all

Coyote and Man in a Duel

A remarkable story reaches Boise from Burley of a fight between a man and n coyote at the bottom of a forty foot mining shaft. The man was Nephi Birch. He had occasion to visit his claim in the mountains south of Burley. His mission took him down the shaft on the ladder. This did not reach quite to the bottom, so he dropped from the end, two or three feet.
 He was immediately made aware that the narrow space was occupied. A wild animal sprang at the ladder as though to climb out. Failing in that, it turned upon Birch and jumped on him, knocking him down.
 It sprang at his throat, but missed, and in second spring grabbed the col lar of his coat, to which it hung. A fierce battle ensued, for a long time Birch using his fists to beat the animal of, his hands being badly injured
 Finally he found an old drill and with this beat the animal of and then killed if. Lighting candle, he found it to be coyote.-Boise dispatch to the New York American.

Once Shot at Roosevelt

On the Ward line steamer Mexico which arrived yesterday from Havana was Emanuel Gonzales, 40 years old who served as corporal under Weyler in the Spanish-American war. As he was in the fight at Kettle Hill, it is the desire of the veteran to go to Wash ington and see President Roosevelt be- fore he sails for his home in Madrid, as he believes he shot at the president in that battle.
 After the war Gonzales went to Port where he opened store. The loss of an arm in battle impaired his activities, and under that handicap he had to give up business. He sold his belongings and sailed hence so. that he could satisfy the ambition of his last years-see the president, whom he is convinced he once tried to kill. He says he is sure of welcome at the White House from his old enemy, whom he much admires.--New York Times.

THE WORLD DO MOVE

One has but to read the reports of the various legislatures now in session to find proof that the world really moves. Now comes the Nebraska leg islature, overwhelmingly Republican in both branches, and follows the exam pie of the president in urging the en- actment of an income tax law. Demo cratic voters who remember the fren- zied attacks made upon the income tax plank of the 1896 Democratic platform by Republican orators and editors will be pardoned for rejoicing. It is rare date on the calendar that is not marked by the adoption of some Democratic policy by the Republican managers COmmOner.
