Morgan's death and the capture Of his
command, was a boy named John Leady
and others who gave the directions as to
how to move in order to effect the sur

preparing to annex big chunks of

such occasions the excitement is in
tense, for these kale-annexing souls
try to make one carriage do the work

With crack of the whip and a care
iul assembling of the reins he pre-
pared to obey the order, when clerk
in the establishment shouted, real
gently, at him, and told him to hurry
around to the Rochambeau.
The conflicting orders worried the

man and hurt his feelings nightly.
So he called a fellow employee to the

office, where his employer was liter

Keep the Children i'm School.

Time is a very important factor
in education. Anything of quick
growth is evanescent. That which
requires labor, toll, sacrifice, self
placement, resignation, counts.
Why do so few of us attain to those
things worth while? Because we
are not willing to subject ourselves
to the toll and labor to achieve it,
A mushroom is of quick growth,
while il takes years to develop a
great oak, a giant of the forest.
The chief function of the teacher
is to teach; the duty and function
Of the pupil is to learn. Certain
conditions and environments must
prevail, ere the aforementioned
functions can be performed effic-
iently. Pupils must be obedient,
punctual, regular In attendance at
school-give their spontaneous CO.
operation or the time is worse than
wasted. They must learn the les
son that is as old as the hills.
There is no royal road to Geom-
etry." Education does not create
it emancipates.
The time is near at hand when
our boys, especially. are prone to
withdraw from school for the pur-
pose of making some money for

distaste for school work, and by
