Choice of Locality for Home.

Thoughtful parents are often guld«itf in their choice of a home by the character of the school district into which ' it wil bring them. I have known families to move from the edge of on* district to the outskirts of an adjacent one simply for the purpose of changing school associations. “The teachers are all right,” they will say. "I have no fault to find with the school; but I want my boy and my girl to be thrown with a better class of children.” And the feeling that prompts it is to be honored always. One can hardly do better for her children than by giving them the best and most elevating daily associations obtainable. —Caroline Abbot Stanley In the Ledger Monthly.
