We Have A Number Of Boys In

our city, as in all othcr citics, who, when m school think it manly to disobey tlie rules 8n(i aunoy their teachers, and whtjii out of school, delight in playing tie ïowdy in the streets, breaking windows in school and other buildings, stealiug cbickens and eggs, and perpetratingother acts of lawlessness. Tliis they do in spite' of the teacliings of the schools or of their parents, and with a wanton disregard of the rights of tfaose with whom they como in contact. Some two or three weeks aince, between Friday night and Jlonday morning, about twenty lights of glass were broken out of a single school building, Md school rooms hare been broken open and books carried off. A move flagrant act still has bren perpetrated wirtkin a few days. A bain lias been entered adjoiuing the grounds of one of our schools and a good harness cut topieces and entirèly ruined. The law gives teachers no control over seholars out of school houra or when off from school grounds, or of boys not scholars but who hang around ichool grounds to incite iniscliief, and to remedv the growiDg evils we have enumerated parents must lend their id, and that ïailing to work reform we fear that a few boys will feel the heavy hand of the law. Boys should remember that they will not grew up manly and noble men, and make good and respected citizens, uul:ss they are o'bedient to parents and teachers, and respect the rights of others.
