As soon as a child is taken into the school the monitor shows him a certain place, and explains to him, that when he wants to go into the yard, he is to ask him, and he will accompany him there.

Of course there are separate accommodations for each sex, and such prudential arrangements made as the case requires, but which it is unnecessary further to particularize.[A] [Footnote A: This is a subject of the highest importance in moral training, and deserve the serious attention of committees as well as teachers: inattention to these matters, may demoralize every child that enters the school.

In many schools throughout the country I have seen great want of attention to this subject, the seats were too high, the circular holes too large, causing fear on the part of the infants, and also bad habits.

The seats should be the same height as the seats in the school--six inches, and nine inches high, the diameter of the holes seven inches and nine inches--the teachers should constantly visit these places, inculcate habits of delicacy and cleanliness.
Such habits formed in childhood are never forgotten.

Superfine dressy teachers, will be too proud, and too high, to attend to these things--but the judicious mother or matron will at once see their importance and act accordingly--"as the twig is bent the tree's inclined."] 2.
