.WHAT I TEACH MY CHILDREN . AT HOME. By being with his father the most of the time when not in school, our son learned by observation something' of the different kinds of work done on the farm. Many times his father showed him just how a thing was done and explained why. In this way he learned much that has been‘ a help to him in school,_even in high school. Often points have come in the nature study and the sciences that have been review rather than new material. When We got our first “flivver,” the boy was with his father when he learned to drive and also when re- pairs had to be made. When he was old enough to have a driver’s license, he knew how to drive, and also a good deal about caring for a machine. Two years ago we were quarantined ;by diphtheria, and the boy had to do "all the kitchen work. He also took care of a little six-year-old cousin. This was work for which he was wholly untrained, but he got along fine, and the food prepared for the pa- tient and his father, who acted as nurse, was surprisingly good. He was :a happy boy, however, when Mother was able to take charge once more, and as we could then obtain help he had‘ an honorable discharge. I feel that he had learned a good deal, because we have not always kept him at the drudgery of chores, but have given him work that required some care and responsibility. We have told him about our business, and have 7-“ '"o We live a few miles from a small city where we do our marketing; when it was convenient, son accompanied his father and became acquainted at the stores. When he was quite young he occasionally made the trip alone, and we never had any reason to think any grocer ever took an unfair advan- tage of him because he was just a boy. Last year he took sole charge of selling the berriesâ€"a crop that brought several hundred dollars. He was very successful in this. made him feel that he has an interest in it. We believed experience was the best teacher, and he has learned by doing. I think the way he managed when we {were in quarantine showed that he ad an ability to take responsibility, and the disposition to make the best of a bad situation. And with the teaching of other things we have tried to teach him that “honesty is the best policy.”~â€"Mrs. H. N. M. CLEAN IT WITH JAVELLE WATER.
