Whispering.
!s it a good idea to prevent whispering in
ir c million country schools '.' If so, how
ould you prevent ?
The above que* ions are a terror to many
teacher. If they think that whispering
luuld be prohibited they do not know how
se' about to stop it. in the lirst pi ice.
ive but few rulcc, and none but what you
in ful y enforce from the beginning. Have
ie scholars to understand that you are to
fieh them se t-government, nnd while you
> not wish to deprive thetn of their little
ensures or mmtige uu men* internes, you
insider it your duty to prevcut anything by
liicli they arc injuring themselves or others,
hen they discover that whispering is a
eat disadvantage such will be refrained
out. In most eases this is the result of
rtlessness or thoughtlessness. They do
>t menu io be annoy ng but have forgetfully
intrne ed the habit which is hard t > break,
you will impress upon thetu the great
iportaiice of not whispering it will soon be
