Look Yourself in the Face.

The reaper of death sweeping
over Europe brings to our
mind n thought worthy of more
thnn casual consideration.
Let liz look ourselves i'll the
face, and think think for the
benefit of humanity, for the
veal of posterity.
In all parts of the country
schools are opening for the fall
and winter terms, and much of
the future will depend upon
the training of the youth of to-
day.
Never in our history was
there time when it was more
Imperative that hasty passions
and vindictive Compartments
be curbed aud eradicated.
Never was there time when
the inculcation of brotherly
love and consideration for
others was more urgently re-
quircd.
'Ehc youth of today will be
the men of tomorrow, and as
we train them now SO will they
be then.
The burden rests heavily up
on us.
We expect the teacher i'll the
school to transform our child
into a man of learning and hon
or and integrity, but do we
stop to consider that more de-
ponds upon the parent than up
on the educators
The one cannot succeed with.
out the cooperation of the
other, but the two working
earnestly and jointly will nc
complish wonderful results.
We should think before speak
ing.
Harsh words and family jars
i'll the presence Of a child gives
it its first lesson in unruliuess
and puts "a sharp edge to an
awakening temper. 1t is nat
ural for the infant to copy the
example of the parent.
We expect much from the
teacher, let us give equally Of
our own store of patience and
consideration.
Infancy demands kindness
gentleness and sympathy not
the austcre aloofness of age, or
the GOODNESS Of indifference.
a child is susceptible to
training, but when it reaches
mans estate opportunity has
passed it by
Shall we heed the lessons of
a world calamity and face the
duty that confronts us.
Shall we look ourselvos in
the face!
