G.. N. Kennard evidently struck a
popular chord with his article on home
study for school children in last weeks
Register. Several have commented to
us with regard to it, most of them
favorably, and Mr.. Kennard tells us
that several mothers have called him
I'D and thanked him for SO nearly ex-
pressing their views on this important
subject. The Register Is not prepared
to say that Mr.. Kennard is wholly
right, but there is no doubt much truth
in his contentious, and it now seems to
be up to the school teachers to give
their side Of the argument. The col,
umns of this paper are open to anyone
who wishes to express their views.
