Stephenson.) Tell me not in mournful numbers, Teaching school is just like play! For the pupil’s dead who slumbers— Retrograding thus each day. School is real! It should be earnest! And our pay shouldn’t be the goal; For our eiforts to us retumest, So, if we make none, we’re in the hole. Not enjoyment and not*^ sorrow, Is the teacher’s destined way; But to strive that on each tomorrow Some new lesson before the pupils lay. .School is short and time is fleeting, And reward will come slow but sure. Our responsibilty’s beating— Trying us to our tasks allure. In the school’s bi'oad field of battle, In the trenches of our work. Be not like dumb, driven cattle, Let not laziness near us lurk.

They have stolen your dog, I "know, And your rabbit white, And your great big kite. Are things of the long ago. But childish troubles will soon pass by—- There! little boy, don’t cry! —Emmie Heame Horton, . A LIFE LESSON There! little girl, don’t cry! Your teddy-bear’s lost, I know; And your ring of gold, And. your little dog bold, Are things of the long ago; But childish troubles will soon pass by— There! little girl, don’t cry! —^By Elmina Hearne. But pus!h forward, upward, on! Teach—teach in the living present! Consider your ability pro and con! Lives of teachers all remind us We can give our lives for naught, And, departing, leave behind us Cherished mem’ries dearly bought. Mem’ries that perhaps anoither Coming in to take our place, Some forlorn and helpless pupil— All his faults will make him face. Let us then be up and teaching In a school that's up to date; Still progressing, still pursuing, If you don’t, you’ll meet your fate. " ♦ BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION.
