of education the teacher, tho patron

operate, or the antagonism of any ono
of those factors may ruin the school.
We ii9 teachers have the tight to bo
treated with respect nnd confidence
and it is our duty to earn the respect
ami confidence of the public by
meritorious work.
During tho school year things will
doubtless happen which may give of
fense to patrons. Should such he tho
case, I wish patrons would see either
the teacher or myself nnd hear both
sides of tho matter before passing
judgment. I llrmly bellovo that nine
tonthsof tho tioublo between teacher
nnd patron i caused by misunderstand
ing. If a pupil has a griovancc, 1
t ii in k. a parent ougui tonsion to u, aim
then see a toucher aud hear hor sldo of
the ease. In tho innioiiiy of instances
the issue can ho .settled without ln.'ivlnir
nny wounds to heal.
Pupils that ilo not know what
grades they belong to, or now pupils,
would bettor see mo Saturday. I will

Owing to tho dofeatof tho free high
school law, so.no of tho non-resident
pupils limy hesitate to attend. In this
year of bountiful crops and good prices
every country boy or girl that has com
pleted tho common branches ought to
attend some high school orncademy.
Three-fourths of an acre of good wheat
at present prices, will nay a pupil's
tuition a whole year. Wo hail lour
tjon non-resident pupils at Ord wheu
it took about live acres of wheat to pay
the tuition.
In conclusion I wish to urge upon the
patrons the Importance of punctuality
anil regularitj of attendance. No boy
or cirl that comes dawdlimr into school
after nine o'clock will ever leave bo
hind him "foot-prints on the sands of
time." Tardiness, in my judgment, is a
greater evil than absonce, for tardiness
is me cuiiu oi simticssucss, while ab
sence is generally enforced by neces
sity. Thore are times when no odium
should be cast on tardiness. Circum
stances beyond the control of parent, or
pupil may cau-in tardiness. We will ex
cuse such cases, and thero will bo no
censure attached to them.
Very truly,
