True Statesmanship.
Sonthern Education.
“And he is not worthy to be call
ed a statesman, he is not worthy to
be a lawgiver or leader among men,
who, either through the weakness of
his head or the selfishness of his
hi art, is incapable cf marshalling in
his mird the great ideas of knowl
edge, justice, temperauc, and obedi
ence to the laws of God, on which
foundation alone the structure of
human welfare can be erected; who is
not capable of organizing those ideas
into a system, and then of putting
that system into operation, as a me
chanic does a machine. This only is
true statesmanship.”—Horace Mann.
Make the Schools Better.
Southern Education.
“And if there is any one thing for
which the friends of humanity' have
reason to join in a universal song of
thanksgiving to Heaven, it is that
there is a large and an increasing
body of people who can not be be
guiled or persuaded into the belief
that our common schools are what
they may and should be: and who,
with the sincerest goodwill and
warmest affections towards the high
er institutions of learning, are yet
resolved that the education of the
people at large—of the sons and
daughters of farmers, mechanics,
tradesmen, operatives, and laborers
of all kinds—shall be carried to a
point of perfection indefinitely high
er than it has yet reached.”—
Horace Mann.
Educate the Children.
Parents should spare no time in
giving their children an education.
It don’t seem to take them long,
these days, to grow up and go out
into the great, wide world to care for
themselves. AVhile yon have them
with you and subject to your control
is the time to start theni in the way
of educating them—that is give them
a practical education. Are you satis
fied with the thought of your daugh
ter becoming a mother without an
education? You can’t afford to be sat
isfied under such circumstances. It
may be you have had the misfortune
to experience the situation your
daughter would be placed in to be
come a mother without an education.
If so, yon, very likely, had but little
or no opportunity to get an education,
but you can’t help seeing the great
need of an education. No doubt yon
are anxious about the welfare of
your daughter and desire that your
children be trained in good schools.
This shon’d be the desire of every
parent. It is necessary that something
be done before your children can be
educated. There must be an effort
made in that direction. There must
be a determination on your part that
your children shall not be numbered
with fhe illiterate.
This is a time of advancement, and
wf should thank God that we can
enjoy the soothing influences of a
progressive people. We should thank
God for an educated people w ho can
instruct the children of to-day, and
train them up in the Way they should
go. Great responsibilities must 'soon
rest upon the youths of to-day. Can
they meet the difficulties and come
out victorious over all opposition?
The future, must auswer. We Know
not what little child has hiJdeu
within its breast an uncultured iniud
which if properly trained would be
a great power on earth for the ad-
vancment of moi'al and Christian
fcrces. Give the children a chance,
as the hope of future prosperity is
dependent upon the children.
