Tr.ICTING AND GOVEBSITiG NOT THE

Tice. success of a teacher in a publiC
school depends neither - upon her scholar
sliip nor her ability to impart instruction,
F macit as upon her disciplinary power,
hw eap:ieity to '•manage7 a division. It
is a trite thought, that not every well- , -
(ducated person is able to tell what hd
lnows; that not every scholar Can teach.
it i also true (thongh it is a truth not sO
.cell rrcognized), that the gifts of govern
ing and of teaching are not necessarily
; a u t. per s ons possessing the happiest
faculty of imparting i:nstnietion, are fre
tmently indifferent disciplinarians; and
the iinesttenching capacity is often lost
to the school system on this account: For
a comparatively large part of the time of
Inar•y teachers is consumed in efforts to
p r i s ivole or to eompera few mischievous
or vicious ptipils to conduct' themselves
-frith a sufficient degree of propriety to
permit recitations to Proefafd. If the

.While it is time that teaching is an ex-

It is is order about theie tunes to de-,
cry the•yaltio of parsing. Disc Overing
that people who can parse - like lightning
do sometimes blunder in their syntax like
thunder, our one-eyed pedagogical critics
unhesitatingly proclaim the uselessness of
parsing. Correct'Syntax is not the - uIW
mate end of parsing; practical good gram
mar is only an incidental benefit of the
exercise.' Correct syntax is partially ,
de
pendent on a knowledge of, parsing, but
far more dependent on good early associa
tions, careful habits of reading and writ
ing, and a keen observation of syntactical
forms:
The province of parsing, while includ
ing that of correct construction, is by no
means - limited to it.' It is chiefly for'drill
in the analysis of language. It is a Men
tal sharpener; the same to the under
standing and Usa of languagethat practi
cal analysis of compounds is to the study
of chemistry and gymnastics to the ath
lete. The loose construction observed in'
composition, and the vagueness of com 7
prehension of printed discourse, are evi
dence of the want of that keen sense of
the force and use of 1.-„ngnage which pars
ing helps to cultivate. This t ; ense may
exist in the gifted without fo6nal train
ing; but its cultivation is none the less de
sirable. and, in the majority. of cases, ne
cessary to accurate scholarship' in the
English branches, especially-, when a
knowledge of Latin is not to be attained.
Even the decriers of parsing will' tied.
.fault with a student Who cannot; distin
guish the parts of speech; but how can
this critical ability be gained except by
practice in parsing
The power of concentration gained by
parsing, especially in the parsing of verbs,
is not'the least benctit of the exercise. It
calls more faculties into simultaneous
play Than any practice:save that of trans
lating a dead language into good English.
Nor is'it'a dull exercise in the hands of
aVright teacher.' It can be made not
only interesting .but positively exciting . :
but it requires tact anti aptness of illus
tration-to do this. We ii Lice that while
good hands at parsing may .blunder occa
sionally. its opponents use loose language
systematically. P. or soulq: they never
knew . their weakness.

HOW HIGH ? •
The right ;'•f the State to educate its
children is generally conceded, but of late
many argue that it is not the province of
the State to carry this:education beyond
the rudiments. •` If the rich man's child
'gets a college education, the poor man's
child should be taught a'trade.' "Since
all tlie ten million children of the nation
can not be put througlCcollege, • it is evi
dent that education by the State must
stop somewhere, and the end of a com
mon school course is theliatural and evi
dent limh." "The State Ss not Ihifind to
teach anything:, that enables a Man to earn
a living, otherwise it Must look ,•after the
support of all." •
Such are some of the statements that,,
like clever eounterfeitt!. - gain currency
- with many. Yet people,• who accept stub
arguments never deny tlr State the right
to look after the i1h...1110,1 2 the criminal, the
poor, or to dr rmil itself in war, or make
war for ter:hill-Lit aggrandizement. That
is, the State may do anythii.g to meet
present ease,_but may do nothin g , in an
ticipation of the 'flaunt, except to main
tain an army and navy.;, The State may
teach a trade in the peithentiary, when it
trade is but (lonian:l means of redinna
don, lint may not prepare the mind in
- youth so as to form habits that will make
the trade more available' atil:the kniten
tiary less of a necessity. •
The fallacy consists in lookirg upon the .
State as a benefactor and the Mdividual
as a beneficiary. Whsle time Statc doe it
does , for itself. the individual lit ing only a
temporary means to a permanent •end.
The individifal has only a teMporary'own
erslip of his property. lie C.lllllo'. Carly
it beyond the grave. It is property, of
value in proportion to the intelligenee
with which it is usd. It is intelligence
and skill that give it value, and it is r a law
of nature that it in turn should pro 'nee
intelligence and skill. If civilization is
the creator of property, and it is where
propel ty exists to any considerable
amount—proi erty shoultl in turn be the
promoter of civilization. whiit. fermis bht
the 'agent in the transaction. All nature
is an example of such action and reaction.
Education is the essential element o.
civilization, and it is strange that so many
who profess to study the public good and
promote it. should advocate that
a limit to what the State shall do bithis
respect. If nothing may be taught
a view to .enablim , people te , support
themselves, then nothing at all can be
taught. for nearly all the business of the
world is carried On by means of the rudi
ments only.
To limit echwation on , account of the
large niimber to be educated is equally
illogical. That it is not only improbable
but impossible that all can complete h col
lege course is the very reason why provis
hku should he made for such as have ca
pacity and perseverence to reach the end
of the curriculum. If the impossibility
for all to finish a given coutse were an
argument for shortening the same. then
our e. 11.71; , :il schools would be limited to
the ( - Ling of the alphabet. Because
the o ..ihscre many are not likely to push
their idles to the end is no reason why
the feu- should be deprived of an

Catholic standpoint: though at tho same time they

It seems to um that Oils Is a feature to be com
