What a grumbling there was on the part of some who had pledged for our school, and paid more or less, or none, when they saw mistakes in their figures in the Supplement issued last spring! Who loves to be scolded when he does the best he can? Now if any suppose that their humble servants at the REVIEW Office love this grumbling they are simply laboring under a mistake greater than those committed at the REVIEW Office. But some people have the grumble in them. You can see it in their eyes, and on their knitted brow, waiting to come out upon their tongues at the first chance. But sometimes these parties favor us with regular doggish growls when they are the only party in the fault.
But be it known to all our liberal friends, and any body else, that we shall be happy to promptly correct any and all mistakes that may appear in the names and sums in this Supplement. We shall be so happy to have our mistakes pointed out in a kind spirit. We don't want any one who detects mistakes to wait a single day after receiving this sheet before informing us of them. And if there be some who cannot correct us without giving us a scolding, we will agree to whistle while they fret.
Some things we know, and one is, that he who will scold us on paper, when we do the best we can, will scold his wife, will scold her husband, will scold his son or daughter, and will scold his or her father and mother. But we shall do our best, and take the consequences.
