PARENTS MUST AD SCHOOL TEACHERS Principal Slade Discusses Home Influence on Children Cooperation between the parent and the teacher is necessary if the maximum results are to be obtained from education, Principal Louis P. Slade of the Senior High school told a gathering of men and women last night at an American Educa- tion week program sponsored by the Parents and Teachers' associa- tion of the Swmalley school. The auditorium was crowded when President Walter Kosswig of the amsociation called the meeting to order after time had been al- lowed for parents to meet the teachers and discuss matters of in- terest to the puplls. “We have to consider the fact the boys and girls who attend school have five hours of influence uder the teacher and 19 hours of influ- ence under the parents. In a case like this where the home controls 19 and the school controls five bours there s need of cooperation and each is obliged to do his part,” Mr. Slade emphasized. Continuing, he said: Part Played by School “What is the school’s part? It is responsible for organized instruc- tion, suggested habits, practical ex- perience with regard to health and home responsibility, with regard to the spirit of learning and the tools of learning, and with regard to citizenship whether in small or large communities. That is the com- munity within the school or the city or the state or the country or even the world."” “The school is further responsible with regard to earning a living and with regard to the use of leisure time and lastly with regard to char- acter building. “What is the part the home should play? The home is to assist sympa- thetically and tactfully but none the less surely to insist upon certain fundamental principles for the guid- ance of the boy or girl. “The hon hould help in the fol- lowing wa: Physical cleanliness, moral cleanliness, dependability with relation to others, which would in- clude keeping appointments, punc- tuality in Keeping appointments, honesty in word and actlon, with regard to the rights and feel- ings of others; willingness to adjust one's self to whatever circumstances | Goop HARDWARE SINCE 1801 ‘%«¢c‘~.ws R A R I X Ty s S e S o I've had a ring around the 17th on the calendar and | or good teamwork regardiess of what organization needs it, whether it be in the home, school, play, or employm “The school and the home sheuld work together for trust and confi- dence. It will be necessary that co- operation be between mother, father, and teacher for the best re- sults.” Adult Mind ‘William W. T. 8quire, representing the American Legion, spoke of the interest the ex-servicemen's organi- zation has in American - Education week. He pointed out that education is regarded by the legion as the best guarantee of the safety of the United States. Good citizenship begins in the classroom, Mr. Squire counselled, but he also urged that education and learning not end when schoolda are over. In his expressed opinion, it is most important that those who have grown up continue to learn and to further the cause of education. Clever Pupil Danoes One of the high spots of the eve- ning's program was the dancing of Ethel Koswig. a student, who exe. cuted the sailor's hornpipe and a toe dance with the finish of a profes- sional. A very clever playlet in the inter. ests of fire prevention was present. ed under the title, “The Speaking " Fach of the arts and sclences was depicted by a pupll, carrying a |symbol and explaining in rhyme his place in the world. The character of Fire was taken by a talented young - | miss who, also in rhyme, pointed out her power to crush the arts and sciences, and to destroy. But Fire's hoast was ended and the character driven to oblivion by the appearance of 14 students, each with a placard bearing one letter, which when as- sembled spelled “Fire Prevention.” Miss Jessie #mith entertained with clog dances, Miss Dorothy Latham with vocal solos, a group of boys wth harmonica selections, and class groups with playlets and dances. The Smalley school orchestra un. der the leadership of Miss Maybelle Swarsky played. COLLIDE AT INTERSECTION A slight collision was reported at 6:10 last night at the corner of Harvard and East Main streets, be- tween a car driven by Milton Can- zellarinl of 45 Wilson street, and one owned by Alex J. Stefnick of Buena Vista avenue and driven by Alex Sutanick of the same avenue.

It’s just 37 years ago that I opened this store at 336 Main Street and I'm still here. I got to thinking a long time ago, as I said, about this anniversary and just how I could show my appreciation to my many friends and customers. I wanted a little memento, a gift that wauld be useful and appreciated, so [ went up to Landers and got an assortment of stainless steel paring knives with colored handles that I am going to give to every woman who comes into the store tomorrow. And for the men I bought a quantity of 6 foot zig-zag rules from the Stanley Rule & Level that I am sure every man will want. Well, these are all free—just ask for them. An- other thing I decided to do was to make an at- tractive reduction on all purchases. If you need anything in hardware get it tomorrow. It's worth while. If you don’t—come in and get your gift anyway. e 336 MAIN STREET 4 doren (UUI\IH Slsfi NOVEMBER 17th FREE GIFTS. CELEBRATING the sky three degrees in width nd‘ three degrees in depth.
