+School's Aim. This is not less true of China Hence, than of other countries. the aim of a school should be to train its pupile to be loyal, faith- ful and obedient to authority and so to make them good citizens. Now there is one important point that I should like to impress upon parents and guardians, and it ia this: that they should do their best to keep strict watch on their Rons or words conduct outside school hours as well as not to allow them to stay away from school without sufficient reason, I sincerely hope that they, too, will! give their whole-hearted co-opera- tion in helping no to maintain strlet discipline.

Discipline is said to bo "The Life Blood of Schools." Without discipline it is impossible to form character, and the formation of character is vital in education. A school is not merely a place in which to impart knowledge, but is also a seat for the moulding of character and the cultivation of the mind. Good habits are easier to foster when boys are young, Therefore parents should send their boys to school at an age when they are pliable and capable

of being moulded..
