The Lincoln Spirit means, too, that a boy must improve his mind even though he dislikes study, and that he must stick to it till he sue ceeds; that it is manly to have good manners in the house, in the dining room, in the presence of company and in the playground. It means that a manly boy is also a boy with a deep seated religious feeling (not just a pious, boy) having a reverence for Good and the things of God, and without fear or shame in showing his reverence for his Creator and for those whom God has placed in law ful authority over him.

Little fellows of a l dozen years could tell the visitors how many pounds as we'll as quarts are I contained in his pail, the difference between Pasteurized and ster1lfzed milk, etc. They enjoy talking about their work, having an air of frank ness and manlfness that shows the reason for lack of guards surrounding the Institution. On meeting their teachers they almost invariably have some little trif1e to say. and at least bestow a smile.
