Honest Teaching
Example in ever Jtan to
Make Good
(Jive the teachers a fair chance and let parents
tock them up in their good work. '
As "prepared places are for prepared people,"
let place hunters take notice just at this time of that
fact and sec to it that their children are faithful in
olai- attendance at their schools and diligent in
studying their lessons, that they shall be fitted to take
their part and go out to help earn their living. .
It is not fair to the teachers or to the children to
iltow the schooling to go by chance.
