AXIOMS AND ADVICE RELATIVE TO REVIEWS.

REMEMBER THAT

Repetition is the road to remembrance.
Each truth remembered is better than forty forgotten.
Vague statements leave fleeting impressions.
Inept illustration impedes instruction.
Entertainment is only a handmaid to edification.
Wisdom walks not with verbosity.
Want of study tends to poverty of style.
Imperfect preparation begets inattentive hearers.
Short lessons make long memories.
Easy questions secure prompt answers.
Loving words always find willing ears.
Yearning hearts meet quick opportunities.

THEREFORE,

Attach due importance to the review.
Leave the husks and secure the meat.
Weave all the lessons into one web.
Ask nothing of your school you will not do yourself.
Yield yourself to the lead of the Spirit.
Seek to make the review short, simple, and searching.
Review weekly as a preparation for quarterly review.
Employ blackboard and chart only as aids, not ends.
Vary your plans, and avoid monotony.
Invite the co-operation of your teachers.
Endeavor to present the truth with simplicity.
Whatsoever you do, do all to the glory of God.
