A WORD TO MY PATRONS.
IN passing through manufacturing villages,
we frequently notice over the doors of certain
buildings, in large characters, " no admittance
kxcfcpt on business." Plain and positive as this
inscription appears to be, it does not prove effec-
tual. Yankee curiosity and Yankee ingenuity
will contr:ve to gain entrance. I have some-
times thought that if the word 44 School-House"
should be inscribed ever the entrance, those
within would never Buffer the slightest annoy-
ance from visitors. I trust, however, that so far
as our school is concerned, the writing over the
door-way may be—"Every parent and citizen
has an interest in the business transacted
within, and may at all times have a free ad-
mittance, and feel at perfect liberty to inspect
the operations of those within ! "
If, therefore, you have never been in the hab-
it of visiting your children's school, let me affec-
tionately invite you to begin the practice. It
will increase your own interest, and re double
theirs. Whenever you may have a leisure hour,
will you not come and spend it with your chil-
dren and listen to their recitations ? Depend np-
on it, if you will adopt this course, their seal and
s'udiousness will be greatly increased, and they
will oheerfully apply themselves to prepare their
daily exercises, when they feel that their father
or mother may be present when they are called
upon to reoite—for what child will not be ambi-
tions to do well at such a time ? But I must
leave the subject with you, hoping that you will
carefully consider its importance.
Gentlemen of the Board of Trustees, I shall be
happy to see you also, at any time } you wi!l
be heartily welcomed hy,
Respectfully,
