In the pages on gallery teaching we have given specimens of lessons on natural objects and scriptural subjects.

Moral training may receive considerable aid from gallery teaching also; the children must not only be continually told what they ought to do, but as often what they ought not to do; they must be told that they are not to fight, and the reasons must be given; they must be told that they are not to throw stones, and also told the consequences; they must be told not to strike each other with sticks; they must be told not to play in the dirt; they must be trained in cleanly and delicate habits; they must not only be told all these things; but they must be watched in their private hours, they must be encouraged to assist and love each other, and it must _be proved_ to them that this is the way to advance their own individual happiness.

It is self-love that is the cause of half our miseries.

Children cannot be told this too soon; it must be explained _and proved_ to them that evil, sooner or latter, brings its own punishment, and that goodness as assuredly brings its own reward.
Opportunities will be continually developing themselves for giving moral training to the children, the judicious teacher will seize these as they occur, and always make the best of them for the good of the children.

A school is a family upon a large scale; nay, 'tis a commonwealth, and no day will pass without facts shewing themselves, to enable the teacher to give sound moral instruction.
