Kind Editor: Please allow me to throw a few brick bats at Brick Dust by express: I have not taken time to go and visit the school personally, but judge from what I have heard from the scholars and parents. As I have been scholar, teacher and am now parent, my honest opinion is that Mr. Wilks is tho right man in the right place and has per- fermec his duty In a straight forward and fearless manner, and is supplying a long felt want. Brick Dust says: "We have saw chil dren of the first famllyes go a stray." All true enough, while on the other hand such young bloods as those that have caused the talk and trouble In the schools this winter never rise to distinction nor reaoh the top round on the ladder of fame. ! He aays It would not do to punish a child for his meanness because It "brings up the ever mite of Ire and contempt." Would It not be better to whip the mite of ire out of them and make good citizens of them, than to let home training be loose and the ire remain and make them fit subjects for dungeon cells and the gallows? : He says such punishment Is nearly unbearable. In answering this we will throw the fault with the parent for not commencing years sgo to give the child his punishmant In broken doses so the teacher would not be compelled to give it to them now in double doses. My experience is, if you spare the rod you spoil thechild. I am not throwing this out as a bait to catch some unsuspecting chub, neither am I trolling for trout, nor am I in the government employ looking up stray catfish; but the first families ol Lebanon will say I am spearing at a sucker. This is a candid oplon of Amomtk. THE MASQUERADE BALL. The Grand Masquerade ball given in this city last Thursday evening, a week ago, by the Lebanon Engine company No. 1, was a success in every respect. There was as nioe and orderly a crowd as could assemble any where. The boys bad the ball elegantly deoo rated for the oocassion with ever green festoons around the wall, aud bung with polished mirrors, and large pictures in rich frames. The center column was intwined with cedar boughs, and overhead was a bowery, formed with cedar boughs, firemen's ladders, bells and the name of Leba non Engine company No. 1, and date of Incorparation nicely carved. The occasion was one that will long be re membered by the dancers of this city. The various committees all performed their parts well in making it the suc cess it was, and deserves credit Much credit is due A. B.
