on toll ot .Mrs. J. A. Uenney, heltci
known to teachers as Mjss. Allit
MeOoinas, .'ffi. Teachers here find
it hard lo combat the evils of party
going and dancing nil night long i1
being rather up-hill work to inslill
knowledge into ideepv heads filled
with the nieiuo'-y of "who I danced
with lust night," and "how many
times," and "what he said," "when tin
next one is to be," etc. It. would seem
that parents woul.i try to assist tench
era in subduing such warfare against
learning, hut tome of them appear to
help it along by making diinoes. foi
ihein. Where there is so little school
and so many young people, to speak
plainly, having plenty of good natural
onso to make line scholars, but grow
ing up in such gross ignorance, it is
truly surprising that the parent, do
not try lo see that everything else
gives place to school. Some send
their children one week and keep
thum out two, and no doubt when the
term is completed and such ones have
learned but little, they hlaiiiu it to
"No count" teachers. Scholars are
made by regular attendance aud hard,
earnest study, both at homo and iu
school no hallway woik about it.
The school law says: "Whenever
the unexciised absence of a scholar
amounts to seven days, he may be ex
pelled." Wonder why our teachers
don't try it on and see what effect it
would have? If it isn't a good law,
why do we have it in the school law?

Quito a confab was hold over skin

we venture to assert, dimply believing
he truth of leligion doesn't make you
'eligiotiH. You may appreciate right
ml yet not do right. I find from the
llible that wo are free from tho law.but
ail to tind unv place that says we are
'tee from the law with the exception of
hu ten eoiinnniidnients. Ohiist says,
"U this rock (Peler) I will build my

Ml earth shall be bound in heaven. If
ho told us to obey the coniinaiidinonts
4iven to Moses or teach I hem to our
children I fail to find it in the Hible.
I could find it iu church discipline,
however. Neither aie wo commanded
o remember the Sabbath day to keep
it holy or sanctify it, and so far as tho
lay being changed. 1 do not believe it
ver was. The Jews kept the Sabbath
because they were freed from Egyp-
ian bondage on that day. We were
never in bondage, except the bondage
of sin, and when Jesus gave himself
1 sacrifice for our siuu and burst the
bonds of death, we wore commanded
to assemble ourselves together on the
first day of Ihe week, or the Lord's
day, to commemorate his death and
"iifforings. The great atonement was
made for thu Gentile as well as the
Jew. The Sabbath was only a Jewish
day and the Gentiles were never in
structed to observe it. The Sabbath
was made for man and not man for the
Sabbath, Every day of the week is
kept by some nation for the Sabbath,
so who in right? Homo.
