The second annual picniciven by A. Q.Bohler,proprietor of the jersey e Creamery, Exeter. to the patrons, milk hinders and butternxakers, was held on Saturday last at Grand }send.. The weather was perfect, the sky clear, r , and a viae breeze prevailed to cool the air. Farmers not being busy at farm work, were present in large numbers, and everybody; took hold of the affair in a manner whichbrought even greater success rO r this the second annual picnic. Mr. Bobier was on the grounds early to receive his. guests and as they arrived he made all feel comfortable by introducing one to another. By twelve o'clock the bone for dinner, the beautiful Grand Bend, owned by J. Spackman, was crowded with farriers, their wives e and children, as Well as other visitors who had been attracted to the picnic by the glowing; of last year's event. At two o'clock a lengthy program of sports was commenced on the athletic ground of the park. and press, much ridicule bits been heaped upon it, applauded by youth and and in Some eases by adults. Even in the face of this I place my humble opinion on record th:ut, it is an advantage to boys and girls to Marva aa, fair share of homework., By' fair share I mean 10.39 Eminates for second class pupils, anal 10 09 animates for 3rd and ith classes, It leads to habits of industry and thrift. Every teacher knows that the boy who roams the street far into the night is inattentive, listless. sleepy in fact the next c ny�, and therefore unlit for business, while the child who has hail a little work, much play and more sleep,is keen, active rand studious. The former be- comes worthless as a student. or in business. the latter is progressive. Apart from Student life, the best citizens are those who -have some home duties ---homework. The best minis- ters have homework. The best teach - have housework. The farmer, tnechanic,all have home duties. When do they learn these habits if not in youth ? If the object of education be tbe preparation for citizenship, then parents and teacher should give the subject of homework their closest con- sideration.
