The Bamtts Victor Ludorum Barry Ryan DISCIPLINE I do not believe that boys can be induced to apply themelyes with vigour, and, what is so much more diflicult, with perseverance, to dry and irksome studies, by the sole force of persuasion and soft words. Much must be done and much must be learnt by children, for which rigid discipline and known liability to punishment are indispensable as means. It is, no doubt, a very laudable eH'ort in modern teaching to render as much as possible of what the young are required to learn easy and interesting to them. But when this principle is pushed to the length of not requiring them to learn anything but what has been made easy and interesting, one ofthe chief objects of education is sacrificed.
