ÏNGTON DAILY REPUBLICAN. rr— PRICE ONE CENT WILMINGTON, DEL., WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 25,1891. PRICE ONE CENT School ««von [ooamuxit'ATKn. 1 No doubt it was with inuoh assur *eof a complete understanding of the entire subject that "Citizen" sent ids article to your Is« which he headed. Tho Conduct Schools." Lot us look for a moment ut his complaint». First, "that the cldldrcn are not allowed to congregate the school before the opening heur." Well, why should they? Buch a congregation would only annoy those who llvo near the school and who hold the teacher responsible for all the • marks tho children put Steps or fences for squares away. Another reason for such prohibition children uro prone to disagree various and many subjects, tlioy •e apt to quarrel and fight, and every school boy, knows how easily a buy cun got Into fighting humor. And again, during such west lier its wo arc sunno have in Winter, surely any child be safer, If sont from homo ut hour ter of ni no ôr two. of T lay dii ' he 1-, who lias ever bee ■ would ■i. rhool by quar to reach th m children with their book» waiting near the schoolhouce as ing.

As to his second charge: Tho drop ping of one pencil is in itself u trilling oflensc, but suppose ea«*li chi id in the room wore to drop a pencil-*-confusion id be the result. Have you an idea that, If Mary should drop her pencil accidentally ment for it, tliut John, being in Wo have •ly 7.30 in tho that n gnrd for tho would tle&ira to keep it Bilde under her i " o punlsh idlo loud, would drop his for fun, and then Torn would do tho same tiling, and disorder ' Therefore eomo given the tirst Carelessno rould bo tho r isluyent must be though caused by carelessness, should always be pun • It will in tin It?

Every child knows when the teacher gives the signal to put wraps, bm ns you well know, somo children, like some grown folks, do hing when they should bo doing ther. Enough time Is given for every pupil to get his or her "tilings soon as told. in time <»n" If t hey will do so If this is done, order will be tho result, but if Mary looks around Kate stop» to whisper a second, and Bridget lias a few words with her neighbor, disorder will follow and with R must, eomo tho penalty for it, otherwise tho teacher's authority is lost. Fourthly: The wator closet quostion has long been an agitated friend, Ji»ton: As long as child ran ask to go out whan they do not need go, a» long as they ask to g< old tlielr lessons, us to go out for no other pur| world than to spin tops, play marbles because tho boy in front asked to long will the teacher be tied in not allowing him to go. tho mothers teach tlioir childr regular habits, and this cu posed ill-treatment will vanish. Those o children who find it Btop the teacher two or throe limes u day and ask that troublesome ques tion, ''May I go out?" could sit. in church or in any public place und never think of leaving. Of course there arc exceptions to all niies, und tho tr ' I boni; but order she entire work will going out business is highly produc tive of extreme disorder.
