Our Public School by w.H.stoddard

POSSIBLY sometime there might
trouble arise between pupil and
teacher in the Hurley school Should
such thing occur there are two
ways of handling the case that |
have seen tried. ! will give both
ways and leave the reader to decide
which is best or whether either one
is good.
First When your child comes
home with a tale of woe believe
every word. Never for moment
think there might be another side to
the story, Ask few questions and
get answers which will have tend
ency to fasten the blame on the
teacher and then give the child your
sympathy by depouncing the teacher
and their methods right then and
there in strong language and the
child who came home with sad and
downcast feelings will brush away
the tears. lift up their heads and
walk away as proud as though they
had won battle. Perhaps a neigh
Dor will soon call if not you can talk
over the garden wall (be sure to
have the agrieyed child present. then
tell your trouble to your neighbor.
Denounce the teacher again. Call
them anything but a lady or a gentle
man and if you are in the habit Of
using profane language a few mild
oaths might be used TO clinch the
argument. Your neighbor will sure
ly agree with you and as he turns
and walks away he viii wink one eve
and say to himself: Lets watch the
fun! While the agreived pupil will
Straighten up and walk away at
least three-fourths Of an inch taller.
At the supper table go over the
whole thing again. Make the remark
that any ten year old child knows
more than the teacher and vou can
not imagine what induced the school
board to hire the saphead. For a
side dish bring it up the next morn
ing at the breakfast table. Tell the
child they better go back to school
as you want them to pass in the
grade with the rest of the class.
That if the teacher cannot learn
them anything to bring their book
home and they would try to dig it
out evenings and by next year may
be the wooden headed school hoard
will get their eyes open and hire
someone that is teacher. If the
teacher is of different nationality
than your own it would be well to
make little TRADE on the national
ity. Call them a Norwegian Ounce
or Dutch Blockhead.
OF course the child may not wish
to go back to school and it will help
some for the parent to say 10 not
know your teachers. Never saw
them unless have seen them on the
street and then did not know who
they were. If ] did know them !
would give them apiece Of my mind,
but in the mean time / will see the
school board and tell them what is
what. And | assure you that if you
follow out this line of proceedings
that what follows may be a long
drawn out affair and you will won
der if the trouble will ever end.
| will endeavor to relate second
way in the following issue.

BROUGHT TO LIFE BY LIGHT
Poppy Seeds. Twenty Centuries Old
sprang Into Brilliant Bloom
When Uncovered.

Some years ago there was seen In q
silver mine of Laurium a curious In
stance of the resuscitating power oi
light after many years. The silver
mines of Laurium were abandoned
more than 1000 years ago as unwork
able. and were filled for the most part
with the Stag from the workings of the
miners.
II was discovered, however that this
Stag contained plenty of silver, which
could easily be rendered available by
up-to-date appliances. Accordingly II
was removed to the furnace. and. when
next the mine was visited. a wonderful
transformation was found to have Ia.
ken place. Instead OF heap OF rub
bish, the mine had become gorgeous
flower garden. The entire space was
covered with a brilliant show OF pop
pies. This profuse vegetable life. II IL
asserted. belonged TO the age Ia which
the mines were worked. Twenty cen
turtles old. therefore, were those poppy
seeds; yet. when the removal OF the
Stag allowed the light to fall upol
them. they sprang into life and bloom
under its influence.
