Means of an Education, Monday, March 11.—The primary principle of education is to arouse the child to self-activity. — Hamilton. Tuesday, March 12.—Every man who is educated at all must be selt- ed uoated.—Hoj -kins. Wednesday, Mar. 13.—It is what a child does for himself and by himself, under wise guidance, that educates him,—Swctt. Thursday, Mar. 14.—“A child is al most educated when be . lias learned how to learn.” Friday, Mar. 15.—Education is train ing, not telling.—Horace,Minn. General—Education does not mean teaching people to know what they do not know. It means teach ing them to behave as they do not be have, It is not teaching the young the shapes of letters and the tricks of numbers and them to turn their arithmetic into roguery, and their liteiatnre into lust. It is, on the con trary, training them into the perfect exercise and kingly continence of their bodies-and souls. It is a pain ful, -continual, difficult work, to be done by kindness, by watching, by wdfrtiing, by ; precept and. by praise, but above alf, by exam id e.—Ruskin. March 2» 190L- Pine Woods.
