To Parents.

, There can hardly be presented for the
consideration OF parents more catching
, sentiment than the one which conveys
the idea that an education is possible
without effort or, at least, with no more
effort than is consistent with the execu-
ton of home and modern social engage
ments. Courses of study which inter-
fere with the social life (however friv-
olous) of the boy or girl (however young
are necessarily unpopular even with
well meaning (O parents. The unthink-
ing are easily induced to applaud and
to adopt any scheme, however specious,
which seems to bridge the chasm be-
tween real discipline and the easy going
ways of daily life There are ''Get
Education Quick" schemes galore The
foundation is sacrificed for a fret-work
superstructure. Educational mush "
is Turing diet.
Faithful teachers find that there is
sort Of tacit resistance set up by pupils
to any effort which tends to lead the
learners over dry hard places. Progress
to certain point is easy and agreeable,
but when the real tug comes, the teach
er feels forced to strategy and at last
finds herself confronted by the problem
of how to entertain relaxed and in
different audience who approve or CON
denim her in proportion as the enter
tainment furnished suits their whim |
The most unfortunate feature of it all
lies in the fact that it is the good enter
tainer much more than the good teacher
who is popular with the pupil and in the
home.
The conflicts between school life and
modern social life are not imaginary and
there is no real reconciliation. The
young lady who attends the high school
and enters at the same time into the
social activities of her set or perchance
assumes the role of her graduate sister is
either doing one or the other in earnest;
she cannot be doing both well.
A high school should be place for
work and not drawing room. Many
and seductive allure
ments have found their way into the
student body that have had and are to-
day having very injurious effect upon
the scholarship of the pupils The
high school is but one step above the
schools. 1t is place in
which foundations of great truths are
studied and the formation of habits
made. 1t should not aspire to be a
college athletic club, nor ape the frippery
Of a girls boarding school 1t is no
place for the study of fashion plates.
Foot ball, base ball, track meets, etc,
which are leg and lung developers, neces-
AIRY enough for those who are pre-
destined to make their living by foot {
acing, etc, do not get much of grip /

Kings is a virtue however and pro- 9

Ugh school is designed for work in the 4
tudies which the pupils pursue in what I
yer department each is assigned.

a thorough grasp of the different sub
iects they pursue. Much more, more
over, does it hold good Of all those who
have to study harder in order to under
stand what they read and think over.
The distractions to-day are so great
that the scholarship must needs suffer
Many boys spend some hours here and
there endeavoring to earn some ready
cash Why? Our sympathy goes out
to those who are actually in need. This
kind of boy is rarely injured by the
time taken, but the boy whose ambition
for outside work is bounded by desire
to have ready cash for foppery and the
vanities of life is injured not only for to-
day, but carries with him a burden of
habits which he cannot throw off to-
morrow when life becomes more real.
The urgent need is simplicity in dress,
the least possible inclination to outside
work land then from need only, simple
and infrequent social diversions, but
serious and urgent attention to the work
of the high school. High school young
sters need more hours of sleep and less
of society and fewer public entertain
ments. Give more attention to legiti-
mate school work and the standard of
scholarship will be raised.
The old saying that "All work and
no play makes Jack dull boy" needs
to be turned around SO as to read All
play and no work, or barely enough
work to pass, makes the high school
boy or girl very poor factor in our
town life To the average human nature,
the lighter gaieties which entice the at
tention of high school pupils appeal
more ardently than the acquisition of
knowledge for the sake Of knowing. 1t
is here that we appeal to parents to
realize and live up to their opportunities.
What will it profit graduate if he be
filed with all kind of social extravaganza
