In our experience in the school room, tmd asaociation w ith parents, we have been met with many excuses for not visit ing schools ; and among those most -generally given, was the want of time. This excuse, especially among the fanners, is one which has considerable weight, and we have always felt dis posed to be charitable toward this class - of parents relative to visiting schools. Jjut tho l'cmg, tedious, and inclement winter approaches ; the very season of the year when our public schools are ihe most extensively attended, or when the greater nnraber of scholars attend. Indeed, the winter season is the best time for study, and improvement. The farmer has performed the heaviest, and tnost important work of the year, and hence it is but right that he should have relaxation from his arduous du ties. But we most respectfully beg to assure farmers and everybody else, that the winter ' season is one of the best times to visit the schools. The child ren aro there, doing their best it may be, to perform what they have been told, was their duty. They may be at schools, under , the care and guidance of teachers, who, themselves need teacfiers and ' masters. They may be under the supervision of those who lit nearly every particular, may be dis qualified for the performance of the duties of teachers. Or, again; your children may be there, cold and uncomfortable and it may be forming a distaste for achool and books, which, as is often the case, may eventually become chronic, thus, almost in infancy, blasting the hopes. Which you, kind parent, may have cherished in their behalf. Now the long winter months are upon us; the schools throughout the county, if not already in session for the winter soon will be. The farming implements are laid aside for the winter, and the farm ers generally speaking will enjoy a sea son of relaxation. Then allow us to .suggest the eminent propriety, of a general visiting of schools alj over the county. The time thus employed will never be missed. The encouragement thus given teach- . crs and scholars will be great, and the good thus accomplished in the cause of education in general, and tho educa tion of the yonng in particular, be so great that no parent can fail in this respct without being guilty of a non performance of a most sacred and im perative duty. Let parents then not fail to visit their children at school. Go and Le como a living witness of your teacher's Capacity, and of his earnestness in the discharge of his duties. Come and be an observer of your children's conduct, deportment, and diligence while at school. THE CONCERT AT ROCK BLUFFS. The concert given by Mrs. Drost for the benefit of a School Library for the Public School of Eock Bluffs on Satur day, Nov. 15th, was a success. Tne house was well filled and the best of order prevailed. "We can not in a short article do justice to each per former, individually, but we must say that all did well. The manner in which each scholar performed, reflected much credit on the teacher (Mrs. Drost), for the very skillful manner in which she had trained her class, In in strumental music "We were very agreeably struck with the nonchalance exhibited by her pu pils in playing before a large audience. To play, or declaim before.an audi ence without embarassment, especially, by young performers, we regard as re quiring a greater degree of self-reliance than most of our young persons possess. But Mrs. Drost seems to lftive succeeded admirably, in training her pupils to be self-reliant ; and this we look upon as one of the most essential parts of education. The receipts from the concert will be appropriated to the purpose of founding a Library, and thus estab lish a nucleus around which we trust that many other donations will be col lected. F. M . MacDonough, Esq., of the Watchman, has the honor to be the second donor of books tc the Libraryt An old farmer named Ami, return- nig from market a little boozy, stopped for a; nap. Awakening .at nignt a little 15ewildered, he solioquized thus, "Am I Ami or am I not Ami; If I am Ami, then where am I; if I am not Ami, then who in the deuce am I ?" Mother. "Tommy r dear, there is some nice castoroil with orange ice in it." Doctor. "Now, remember, don't give it all to Tommy leave some for me." But Tommy, dear, was wide awake, having had a touch of the cas tor once before, and instantly replied, "Doctor's such a nice man, ma, give it all to him." Ma laughed, and Tommy got better without the aid of any more castor-oil and orange ice. Circuitous. Passenger " Quite the sort of weather for your business, these . April-showers, I suppose?" Bed-faced Driver. "No, sir, gi' me fair weather; 'cause if it a'.n't fair, no one gets up outside, and if there ain't no one to get rxp outside, there ain't no one to say, "Coach-man, get yourself something warm to drink."
