There are rnrents who require prompt attendance upon and the children of such are fnr In advance of home upon any flimsy excuse that the fertile minds of the children may think of, knowing that they will pass current every time. On« half the trouble of youthful' pf ogress is OTcr when there is prompt and regular presence of pupils upon llic safcions of the school.

to turn a large school out of doors a 1 couple of fimes a day at recesses. Such a fashion for'anv but llic smallest rhil- 1 ment of tbe piny ground, and often ihc disturbance ibere arc fretful causes of discipline. Then from a sanitary point ! • of View the recess is productive of mis- ' chief. The play makes colds easily 1 taken, and if the greatest caution is not 1 taken th: foundation of long spells of 1 sickness are laid. Ioit the hours of study ' bo- shorter, and for resting tho mind ■ there are plenty of other tarms of recrc- 1 ' alien besides the violent ones of tbe < play grounds. 1 The subjects of cleanliness and Tentl- ' lation are important and arc always ' timely. No unclean school room with ' ( a week's and sometimes a month's ac- ' enmmuinli'in of dust can be attractive, ' no matter what else may lie present as ' helps to teacher and pupil. As much - may be said of tbe atmosphere, It should be kept pure by^proper ventilation, and at the proper temperature. While the foul atmosphere ennnm lie seen its dcnilly £ efferts are so well known that it is 1 scarcely worth while for us in this short 1 I talk to do anything more than sound a ' note of warning. i We are indebted to County Superin- 1 tendent Miller for valuable school statin- t , tics of the county an abstract of which i : wc present to our readers as follows: j There are 13 graduates and 5 port r graduates, (f from Tnckahoe.

At>in«;o'cloek he rode leisurely out of Winchester, not dreaming that his army was in danger. After a little, he heard aif»in the sound of heavy guns, and now he knew what it mast mean. Not half a mile from Winchester he came upon the appalling marks of defeat and rout. The runaways from the battle, still in flight, bad H got so far as this in their terror. The SS trains of wagons were rushing by. horses ;■* and drivers all in confusion, for there is no worse turmoil in this world than the flight and wreck of a beaten army.
