This is another example of the grinder

Those who attended The Little Red
Schoolhouse back in the country will
remember the periods-once or twice
a day-when the teacher opened the
windows and allowed little fresh air
to enter. They will also remember that
the windows did not stay open long and
perhaps they can imagine how the
idea Of leaving them open, winter. and
summer, might have been received by
the teacher. w. r. Watt tells in the
March Survey how to make children
fit to learn. We make IL possible for
them to desire learning earnestly and
to get It joyfully.

they droop and die. Children and

other exceptionally good one on The
Essence Of Friendship. She gave SER
eral definitions Of friendship, among
which was one OF Aristotles, where 1t
is defined as "one soul abiding in two
bodies" All through her grafton, Miss
Draeseke emphasized true friendship
and separated II from the more common
forms of supposed friendships.
Miss Draeseke went on to give the
effect of evil companions upon a per-
son. CLOSEST friendships" she said.
ARE formed in the earlier years. Yet
no matter how close the tie OF friend
ship 1t is likely TO be broken. Absence
does not always make the heart grow
fonder," said Miss Draeseke. "Only by
continual association and meeting are
true friendships kept true and lasting"
She concluded by telling Of that beauti-
full and genuine friendship between Da-
vid and Jonathan.
