D.J. Pratt, now the Assistant Secretary of the Board, had read a paper on "Language as the Chief Educator and the noblest Liberal Art," in which he dwelt upon the importance of studying the ancient classic authors in their original tongues. Mr.

It is the first step for the physician, the first step for the educator, the first step for the parent, and above all, the mother. Nay; more we must not suppress so great and important a truth it is the first step for the legislator and the minister.

The author, Thomas Hughes, was himself a Rugby boy, and many of the incidents of the story are drawn from his own experience. One of the most interesting things about the book is the picture it gives of Thomas Arnold, head-master of Rugby from 1828 to 1842. The influence for good of this famous scholar and educator, called affectionately "the doctor," can scarcely be overestimated.

But the whole community is the master educator; the best home is not exempt from its influence nor the best school greatly superior to its morality. In fact the school, even as the place of amusement and all places of congregation, serves to diffuse the moral problems of boyhood throughout the whole mass.

In his many minor works he has endowed us with an inexhaustible heritage of beauty beauty which is "about the best thing God invents." He is the educator of our taste and of more than our taste of our sentiment and our emotions.

And between the lowly and the aristocracy there was as yet no firmly seated middle class, with the vigour of fresh sap and sufficient knowledge, and good sense to act as the transitional educator of the nation.

It is the business of the educator to make as sure as he can of the transfer, and that can only be done by practicing in several fields.

Practice makes the idea clearer and freer, and this in turn makes fresh practice profitable.

"Go with you," he answered, "when you take her your new stories." So they went together, and the lady complimented the writer on his success as an educator. "Your pupil does you credit," said she, "he talks nicely about botany and deportment. But I am a little troubled to see him looking so pale. Perhaps you have been too severe with him.

Only when men realise that whipping a child belongs to the same low stage of civilisation as beating a woman, or a servant, or as the corporal punishment of soldiers and criminals, will the first real preparation begin of the material from which perhaps later an educator may be formed. Corporal punishment was natural in rough times.

Besides mimicry of the itinerant preachers, he imitated the electioneering advocates of all parties and local politics. One day, one such educator collected the farmers and their help around him to eulogize some looming-up candidate, when a cousin and admirer of young Lincoln cast a damper on him, crying out, with general approval, that Abe could talk him dry!
