"Where shall I go to school?"
In this connection it is well I
member what Emerson said on the
ct: "It makes very little differ?
ence what you study, but it ia in the
important with whom
you study." We have been moved
to make this quotation because of sn
ttl from school life which has
? v come to us. A modest,

coarse, revolting, disgusting.
Hotter that your child should grow
up in ignorance than be trained by
such a teacher. We heard not long
since .ranon from a
et tia- Methodist Church,
who bad as his text. "Christ, the
gentleman." The theme was start?
ling and new to us, and the sermon
that followed strikingly impressive.
Would that all who are c!
with the high and well nigh
duty of teaching in our schools could
have heard it.
