HINTS TO TEACHERS. Discipline with the eye as far as possible. Elevate the tone of mental work a trifle each day. Elevate the moral tone of the class in every recitation. Leave as little room to luck in class work as possible. . Effective expression is not receiving the attention at-tention it demands. The individuality of the pupil should be generally preserved. The best educational principles apply to the teaching of any subject. Attempt nothing in which the chances are against its accomplishment. School work should heighten appreciation of tbe beautiful as well as of the true. So focus your teaching that the children shall see the reason for a thing about as soon as they know the fact. To discipline is to disciple. This is a highly suggestive thought, and ought both to soften discipline and make it more effective. , In teaching principles and processes, deal with facts and figures so simple aud well known that nothing shall distract the pupils' minds from the principle or process.
