“While the resultant lilcs-ni^s of

by ignorance, hi'tory teaches us that
unless each study has for its chief end
and aim the strengthening of lofty
ideals, moral uprightness and sterling
character, the school or Institution
which teaches and imparts the knowl
edge has lost i;s hearing and sees not
the maik at which it aims. Then,
while the purposes of our schools and
still lies before us a broad field for

I the youth of our land, may hear the
] cajl and respond to the echo before it
is too late, their minds must be
trained and developed, but not only as
scholars in literature, in the arts and
; sciences, hut in the principles and
knowledge of all that pertains to our
moral uprightness, in the growth and
developing of i law-abiding, liberty-

“While the task of impressing these

dren re'ts heavily upon the shoulders
of >ur teachers in the class room, the
duty rests with equal weight iq on the
pa rents in the home. Yes, this teach

and mother, because home life and pa-

the teaching and social environment
in which it was engendered holds it
ever after true to its ideal. Then,
