when he remembered he began to cry
again, and ran away off through the
! trees as fast as he could go. 1t wasn't
very fast though. because he was so
weak and so tired. But he kept running
and stumbling through the woods. and
sometimes he would fall down and lie
there tor quite a while His head began
to feel queer, and the trees and the sun
light danced up and down in his eyes in
the funniest way. By and by he could
see nothing, and falling he laid still and
began 10 dreamqueer things.
While he slept a Person came that
way, and the little boy -aWoke. Some
how, he felt entirely rested, and feeling
of great peace and content came over
him when he saw that somebody had
found him. The sunlight filled his eyes,
though, and the Person seemed to
stand in the midst oft.
My son. why are you here?"
''Oh Sir, am lost | was lonesome
Sunday and wanted to go Just out to the
trees, but my father told me must not.
| am awfully sorry that disobeyed him,
but didn't think it would do any harm
to go just out there. When got out to
trees saw a beautiful butterfly and
the wanted him and followed him into
the woods and couldn't find him and
was lost. But Sunday was very long,
and didn't know what to do
"Yes, my son; Gods day is very long"
! 1T was an awfully pretty butterfly,
sir"
YES, my son; many people follow that
butterfly, and it always leads them into
the forest, where they cannot find their
way
What, sir. that same butternv?"
YES, my son; that butterfly is as old
as the world"
This seemed very funny to the little
boy. He thought while, and then he
said:
Il am very, very sorry, sir, and
won't disobey any more. Won't you
take me home to my father?
Yes, my son; | will show you the way
Home"
Then he took the little boy by the
hand, and together they walked in u
very narrow and straight path through
the woods. They walked quite long
while, but the little boy chung closely
to the Persons hand, and was not
weary any more.
At last they came out of the woods
into green meadows, and away off there
shone great city, and over it and all
around it there was such sunlight as the
little boy never saw before.
Are we going there?' he asked
Yes, my son, we are going there"
rs father there"
Yes, my son; come with me, and
will take you Home to your Father"
And hand in hand they crossed the
green meadows and entered the City.

Legislative Notes.
[From our Montpelier correspondent.

Senator Lewis of Orleans is easily the
most polished speaker in the Senate. He
does not speak often but when he does
speak in support Of a bill the senate is
treated to a masterpiece
Senator Gleason made fine fight on
the trustee bill and the woman's suffrage
bill and by his two victories has gained
considerable prestige in the Senate,
A bill to abolish the present system Of
testing and condemning cattle was
killed in the house.
Some overheated newspaper reporter
who is furnishing reports for the Brattle
boro Reformer has been airing himself
through the columns of that paper and
has been calling the present legislature
all the uncomplimentary things he could
think OF. The circulation of the article
has been general about the state house
and there is no dearth of hostile senti-
ment expressed by the members. If
they find out who wrote it there may be
something doing besides legislation.
Senator Gibson has been missed during
the week. He is easily one of the first
three senators among the list of able
men.
One reason for the long session is that
the people Of the state are taking more
interest in legislation than usual and are
more inclined to hold the members re-.
. sponsible for bad legislation. For that
reason the members purpose to take
their time and do the thing right When
the session is over it will be found that

Classical Association at Burlington.

The third annual meeting of the YER
mont section of the New England Clas
steal association was held at Burlington,
Dec 5, with 35 teachers representing
II schools and colleges in attendance.
Harlan N. Wood OF St Johnsbury
AGA lemy gave the last paper on The
teaching of drst-1ear Latin One reason
Why So many first year pupils fail to
make satisfactory progress is because
they are required to do too many kinds
of things. The hrst-Vear Latin books
introduce too many different features
during the early part of the work. The
beginner needs to gain, first OF all, an
understanding of what an infected
language is, hence during the first term,
at least, the time should be devoted
chiefly to a mastery of the most essen
tia forms and to help the pupil get a
clear idea OF declension. Satisfactory
results will be secured ii nouns repre-
senting the first second, fourth and fifth
declensions are placed side by side on the
same page and studied before anything
else is introduced. Students do not mind
hard work nor does their inter st lag
when a definite problem is set before
them. But the problem in hrst-year
Latin is not definite enough if too many
kinds of work are brought in too soon.
The following officers were elected to
serve for the ensuing year: President,
Principal c. P Rowland of St. Johns
bury Academy; vice president, Associate
Principal James N. Taylor OF Vermont
Academy; secretary and treasurer, Pro-
lessor W. S. Burrage OF Middlcbury Col
lege; executive committee, Principal W.
A. Beebe of Peoples Academy, Morris
vile, Professor NJ, B. Ogle of the Uni
versity of Vermont and Miss Eleanor
Ross Of Rutland high school.
