BOYS AND GIRLS WHO QUIT
(Uncle Abraham's Letter.)
In our last article we showed
that a man though middle age
or past should not give up in
his undertaking that success is
still possible. In this letter we
want to talk to the boys and girls
still in their teens who have eitn
er quit school or are thinking of
doing so soon, m other words, I
want to talk to those Jboys and
girls who have dropped out of
the race and to those who are
about to do so, and I am not go
ing to scold either, only give a
few facts in a kind, sympathetic
way. If I get a little rough
and tumble it is not because
do not care, rather, because
care very mucn as a father or
teacher (and I have had the
misfortune to be both.)
When I was a boy I admired
the boy who stayed in the foot
race) although he did get behind
the whole crowd and now I ad
mire that boy more. But there's
the boy who, while he does not
quit the race, might as well, do
so for he or she just lags behind
a half-hearted way he be-
ongs in the class with the who
quits clean.
Now, 'did you .ever think how
well these foot-races illustrate
;he boy or girl In the school
room race, the first great race of
our lives? Take the boys and
girls of fifteen (a dangerously
critical age for either in this
day) and watch them in our own
public schools of Haywood coun-
There s the boy with bright
i and step alert he- walks
ike he's going some where and
he is. He is full of life yet obe
dient ; 19 prompt, respects his
teacher, the school anJ its rules.
He has entered this year with
the determination to finish the
common branches and enter high
school after Christmas, and he'll
do it too. In high school we find
him again at the head of his
class and it goes without saying
that he still carries with him
those other marks of a man
promptness, obedience, polite
ness, etc. He is also active in
society work but why be te'di
ous, you all know the kind of boy
he is, we have him right here in
the schools of our own county
and nothing can stop him he is
bound ti succeed. Oh, for more
boys of this type, the boy who
stays in the race to win!
But there's that other boy of
whom I really ' do not like to
think: He drags himself into the
school room about ten o'clock
and falls down into his seat (all
true teachers know this type of
boy) ; he walks like he was both
sick at the stomach and affected
hL his feet, just drags himself
along as if he really doesn't care
if he never gets there and he
don't, This boy. has no aim at
all in life, he has never yet
waked up. He goes to school it
seems for the sole purpose "o
being with the other boys and
girls and to bother those who
want to study as much as he
can.' He lacks energy in the
school room, he lacks energy at
home, indeed, he lacks Jut about
all that a boy could lack. - Hfr
swears because he. thinks it
sounds bignd smokes cigarettes
becanse be thinks it looks smart;
like the boy in the' foot-race.. h
just rum along "any old way"
not caring how ,far the others
out strip him.'
Then there's that other boy,
he stands out just as distinctly
in my mind as the other types
He quits school at the age of
fourteen or fifteen partly, be'
cause he was "needed at home"
so much that the others forged
so far ahead of him that he got
ashamed of himself, or because
he did-not like to go to school,
or both. He had some of the
marks and characteristics of the
first named type as he too
smokes, swears, etc., but in oth
er respects there is a pronounced
difference. He is more open in
his mischief at school and there.
tore often has a worse name in
the community , than the other
boy. But of the two, this boy is
the better; he is always more
industrious, - generally more
truthful and reliable. True, he
has made the big mistake of
quitting school, but we' find him
at home where "he will accom
plish as much in one day as the
other boy will in two.
You will notice that I put the
worst type of boy second, while
as a matter of course I should
have mentioned him either first
or last that's the rhetoric isn't
it? but I put him in the middle
so that he could stand up, he s
so lazy, you know, that he can't
stand alone. Listen, boys, I
hope that none of you who read
these words have any of the
marks of this fellow about you!
He's not only a d-r-e-g, but he is
ra d-r-a-g m life, this sleepy,
careless pretender. He's the'
hardest for the teacher to reach
and last for the preacher to
arouse, because hecan neither be
inspired nor persuaded, while at
the same time, he knows ton
much to be taught. The factory
doesn't want him, the business
man doesn't want him and the
teacher is glad when he does not
come back to school.
