Several boys belonging to my,? fchool were in the habit of playing truant continually. This habit was contracted, as it uiually is, by frequenting bad, idle com¬ pany. One boy feemed quite incorrigble : his father got a log and chain, chained It to his foot, and in that condition, beating him all the way, followed him to fchool repeated¬ ly. . Nothing Was of any avail ; neither was the lad reformed by any thing the parent could do. He was at lad reformed by a con- ted about ah M fusty nail. I am n.ot for;d of laying wafers • but, without any other dcfigu than the improvement of two claffes by railing a fpirit of emulation among them, I betted with oiie of my fubofdinate moni¬ tors, a flitting agatkH an old rusty nail that Tavc the time thatVouid othr-v" 1 choohng, and neve,.

Thus, a little emulation and.mental ir.tereft in what he had to do, produced that improvement, and delight irr learning, which neither the lo^ nor the horfe whip, nor any other fevcrc treatment he re¬ ceived from his father, could produce.
