ANSWER TO BRICK DUST.
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. Nickereon, the
chief, of the fire department, for the
iuterest aud work he took in the aflair,
and especially the magnlflcant way he
managed it that night. Tbe music
by Crawford's orchestra was good.
