Ira Halpenny of Ayton. “Patriotism is love for one's country,” says Chambers. Web- ster says it is that love for the land of our birth, which prompts us to zealously support its author- Lty and interests. It is indeed a rational love and pride for our country founded on some knowledge of the privileges we enjoy, and-the debt we owe those who Won them .for us. It is a natural instinct. One of the noblest characteris- tics of men and woman is love of home. The very mention 0! the word awakens in the ibreast of nearly every person affectionate memories, cherished associations and tender longings. Separation from paternal home and 'native soil, brings feelings of sorrow. Every good boy recognizes the duty of obedience to .his parents, of consideration for the wishes of his brothers and sisters, and of respect for all placed over him. He will do nothing that might bring discredit upon the family. and will regard it his sacred duty to advance the interests of the household. When he attends school, a simi- lar sense of responsibility influen- ces him to improve by his actions the character of the institution in which he secures his education. This love for home and. school he- comes an abiding principle with that child in after life. kWe see the same manifestations of that love towards his province and country. He realizes that the country demands his interest. that he owes a debt 'to those, who have served it in the past, and that the prosperity of that counâ€" try depends upon :him, as well as every man, doing his duty. It is a property which requires development. Before we can be patriotic we must :have an object worthy of our patriotism. It is not patriotism to cry “My Coun- try," right or wrong. A country Worthy of patriotism should be one which has gained distinction as a nation in commerce, industry learning and literature. one whose subjects have. liberty of conscience speech and action, for, as Burke says. “What is the Empire, if we lose our liberty?" We believe Canada to be such a country. The words of St. Paul “I am a citizen of no meain city“ may be repeated by every Canad- ian. It the great apostle had reaâ€" son to be proud of being a citizen of 'l‘arsus, the people who live in (‘anada may also with pride re- gard themselves as citizens of no mean country. In extent it forms thirty per cent. of the area of the British Empire. and one fifteenth of the whole globe. It needs but a slight knowledge to convince us of its striking natural features, the grandeur of its mountain ranges, the beauty of its rivers and lakes, its magnificent forests, and its, vast stretch of fertile lands. Its great extent of timber lands, the most valuable on the continent, ital almost boundless treasures of , valuable minerals, nowhere ex-i . celled, extensive and world re-i f uowned fisheries and geographical , facilities for commerce, all of . which ‘gives Canada a coveted ; place, lsuperivor advantages. in , view of‘the growing importance of . the natural resources in the devel- : opment of nations. , The heabthfulness of the climate > has resulted in producing one of i the noblest types of manhood; V > > t l } men who have distinguished them- selves in every walk Df life, on the battlefield, as in the recent South African war, or with the ad- ministration of the affairs of the i country, audh lights as Alex. Mc- 'Kenzie, John A. Macdonald, or our present Premier, the Hon. Sir Wilfrid Laurier. '3 Where is the man, as Scott says, 'f whose soul is so dead that would not be moved by recalling the glorious deeds of such men as -Nelson, Wellington and Kitchener“ Iwho so unself'ishly fought in the‘ interests of humanity and civiliza-u iti'on. Statesmen like Pitt, Burkeq ‘Peel and Gladstone, are an i=nspir-' iation to the youth of our land.- l‘Names o)! Chaucer. Shakespearefl Bacon, Huxley and Spencer, are ‘among those who remind us of “he marked distinction the nationl l; has made in science, literature and ‘ philosophy. ' We speak the tongue which 1st and is to be, the language of trade‘ and commerce throughout the ' habitable world. -â€"â€"â€"v _._____ Our pride is not confined to Canada alone, but it extends to that Empire, of which we form a very impontant part. In the days when Rome was at the ‘height of her power, fit was the proud boast to be able to say “I am a Roman citizen,” but every _Canadian__ma): say, “I am a British subject,” and feel that he is a citizen of an Empire, larger, grander, and nobler, than that which acknow- ledged the supremacy of the Cae- sera, one of rwhich can be said lit- erally, upon which the sun never sets. Indeed, in a Word, ours to-dav is to enjoy a share of the bless- ings, which are the result of the march of science, the spread of democratic ideals of government, the solution of ‘aocial problems, and the 'dom'inacy on! Christian {orcea. Suffice it to say, we have a form of government, a system of laws. second to none in the world, one which has been copied by everv nation under heaven.

The true aim of "the. school is to make good citizens. The highest product of education is successful citizenship. Education is the for- mation of character, and character has to do with the entire nature of man: physical, intellectual, moral and spiritual. The Iuture of the nation depends upon the boys and girls Iof to-day for to them will be \entrusted. the duty of guiding the Ship of Sate. One has said, and said truly, that the children are the to-morrow of society. Then, if this be so, upon us as teachers, rests the ‘great res- ponsibility of moulding and forming the characters of those boys and girls who are. to control the destiny of the nation, to us is given the privilege of making the early and most lasting impression of laying {down the principlr‘s which will enable the youth 'to live well in the home t,-he province, the co‘qntry. gut II‘r-J. Iiow are we going to accomplish this? buuu O The parent or ‘teacher should first examine his own individual character and life, and .see that; he is up to what is demanded (iii a good citizen, that he has 'the indie- pensiible characteristics of a man and a teacher. Namely: attain-- merits. personal magnetism, morâ€" al character and :a strong ln‘l'mn‘m ality whose actions and life are hr- yond criticism, for we can not over estimate. the value of the person- ality of the teacher in teaching i the true sense of the Word lea-t it might be truly said of us lthat. what we are speaks so 'loud that you cannot hear what we say. 1. -L..- 4"“ ~-----v- â€"-- - The school itselrf ruhnuld be char»- aotm'izod by its regularity, punc- tuality, order and obedience to auâ€" thority.

Both the home and the school should be characterized by regu- larity and punctuality. ’l‘heir mot- to should be “Anything W'orth.do- ing should be worth doing well." for on this depends the comfort and attractiveness of any institu- tion. The child should be led to see the part he plays in this great work. Thus his interest will be aroused, his love stimulated.
