our Western history has been one war
after another. We have bred men for
war. trained men for war; we have
glorifed war: we have made warriors
our heroes and even in our churches
we have put the battle flags beside the
cross. But nearly two thousand years
ago n new tradition came into our
Western world. IL was not war, but
love. It's symbol was not a sword.
but the cross. It's -olce was not a
battle cry, but God so loved the world

For nearly two thousand years we
have been trying to mako these two

cilable PHILOSOPHERS Of life lie down in

discipline are to-day unique among
their fellows in loyalty and devotion
to an institution that refused to toll
crate and so encourage their weak
nesses and played fair with them and
their future. To-day rejoice TO count
among my best friends many old boys
who in the days OF unstable youth
forced on me the unpleasant task OF
laying upon them the hard hand OF
discipline, a discipline that in not a
few cases made necessary the sever
ing Of the school tie. THAT made me-"
That taught me the lesson 1 needed" Z"
THAT put me on my feet" are express
sions that ] have heard again and
again from the lips of these same fell
lows to whom the truth had been
driven home by the stern teaching Of
life. One little incident will servo to
Illustrate my point.
In the early years OF my experience
]: became necessary for the school to
dismiss at one time some twenty boys
among whom a passing but contagious
mob spirit had prompted to deeds that
were hardly in keeping with proverbial
school order. Among those so dis
missed was the oldest OF three brothers
prominent in school activities and un-
usually popular with their mates and
the faculty alike. Naturally enough a
spirit of unrest swept for a moment
over the student body and exaggera-
tions filed the air. Newspapers found
good copy" in the event. An exodus
was threatened and parents were
sounded by excited sons In the effort
TO discover how far sympathy could be
counted on at home The two younger
members of the trio referred to actu-
ally migrated to a neighboring city
and telegraphed home for funds to
permit them to complete the journey.
Instead of the hoped for funds the
father himself appeared. without in
dicating in any way his feelings toward
the proposed plan he suggested that
1t would probably be we'll to return TO
the school and clean things up. The
boys were delighted. believing that this
proposal indicated parental approval
and feeling sure, as they afterward
told me, that the headmaster would
now be taught a needed lesson. In
office. The father was the first to
speak.
II understand" he began quietly
that you boys wish to leave school
because George has been sent away
The youngsters nodded assent. "Well u
he went on with increasing feeling
you are not going to leave. You are
going to stay right here and finish
your course and redeem the family
reputation. at least If my money holds
out and the faculty permit it. DO you
understand"
Two sadly dropping heads bore wit
ness to the fact that understanding
had come.
And I wish to add ono thing
more" the father continued. "If
George had not been sent away for
what he has done you would never
have had to ask my permission to
leave the school. / would have taken

in school that refused TO do 1ust
what this school has done in Georges
case"
And the boys stayed and finished
their courses with credit and with the
good will and respect Of students and
| faculty alike. But, most curious OF
all except from the viewpoint of a
headmaster, the brother dismissed be-
came rsoted among his friends for his
unbounded loyalty TO and admiration
for the school that had felt called upon
to send him from It's doors Often be-
| fore his untimely death did he tell rne
of the value he attached to that dis
ciplinary act and what 1t had meant
| in his life.
THAT brought me to my senses" he
would say with enthusiasm, land kept
me from being fool all Of my life.
For that one thing alone I owe the
school moro than l can ever repay"
Tense situations like the one re-
ferred to above are not always without
their humorous elements. Sane par
ents are. after all. pretty sure to pos-
sess that priceless virtue, a sense OF
humor. In this particular instance 1t
was pretty generally admitted by tho.
boys of the school that the influence
that contributed most to dispel youth ?

excited youqgster, who had announced

reply of this wise father someway did

ahead. This is what he said

work"
Cooperation should and must be the
keynote of the relations existing be-
tween parents and school if worth
while results are TO be secured. The
privilege of choosing one school In
preference to another belongs to every
parent. But once the choice has been
made the necessity of working in sym
pathy and trust with those who for the
time being have been given charge of
the child is a plain and should be a
pleasant duty. The school may make
mistakes But even so the parent runs
in its policy than in attempting to
| pass at a distance judgments that are
almost sure to be biased and to de-
mand action that must inevitably work
to the injury of the boy or girl in
volved In these days, when the lack
of discipline and restraint threatens TO
wreck our social, economic and ma
tional life, We may well be grateful
that our best schools have not wholly
lost their bearings and are still ready.
when necessity demands to make use
of those time tested agencies by which
youth through all the ages has been
aided and strengthened in its stormy
passage from childhood to manhood
and womanhood. And we can show
our gratitude in no better way than By
supporting those on whom the unpleas-
ont duty of administering discipline SO
often falls. US
