Monday | afternoon. Mothers’ fheetings was the topic of her talk. She emphasized strongly their importance .and value and gaye many. suggestions for start- ing and conducting such meetings. . Home visiting' was by far the most important preliminary step and with- out this, success is’ difficult to attain. By this visiting, contact is made be- tween the school and.the home and the mother feels she is really wanted, that the teacher is her and ghat she has a right and a place in the school life. Mothers’ meetings not only benefit the lower grades, but the Americani- zation of the mothers and homes while the children are very small results in the elimination of friction and misun- derstanding between parents and school in the upper grades, and brings about closer understanding and co-op- eration throughout the child’s school life. - This cooperatite work is obvi- ously true when the parents are Amer- ican speaking, as they have the advan- tage of knowing more guickly that the teacher is working with them for the child. Miss Babcock told how. improve- ments were secured by neighborhoods whose schools had organized efficient parent-teacher associations and moth- ers’ clubs. Censorship of moving pic- tures and the securing of school equip- ment were among these benefits. Teacher in the morning, zaother in afternoon—these are the two persons nearest the child's daily life, and each must know the other to make her work most effective for the child. As the knidergartener is the teacher of the younger children, it falls to her espe- cially to establish this bond of sympa- TWO STREET nually, the first interest to be due Nov. 16, 1919.

All were referred to the finance committee for consideration for incluson in the estimates for the next city budget.

For this equally im- portant.social work.

RECOMMEND NEW TRIPLE "HOSE AND PUMPER In their annual report made to the common council Monday night, the fire commissioners—Alderman J. A. George, Councilmen Earl Mathewson and John R. Fowler—say they hope the finance committee will recommend the amount asked for for the proper maintenance of the department and also include in the estimate an amount suflicient to purchase atriple combi- nation chemical hosé and pumper sim- ilar to the one now located at the Cen- tral station. The expenses for repairs brought about by the two accidents in the past year, one to the deputy chief’s car and the other to Chemical No. 1, prevent- ed the commissioners from doing as they had hoped to do out of last year's appropriation in purchasng a suita- ble chassis and mount old tanks and equipment for use at the Falls station, thus displacing two horses. The commissoners recommend that an extra appropriation made to care for the Greeneville and Thamesville districts and say that the entire de- partment should in fact be motorized and a new company organized in Thamesville. PARK BOARD ASKS FOR $5.000 APPROPRIATION In its thirteenth -annual report to the common council Monday evening by the park commisstoners who have charge of Mohegan park, they ask for an appropriation of $5000 for next vear, the same sum as has usually been given to them by the city. The commissioners,_who are Joseph T. Fanning, Martin E. Jensen, 'Will- iam A. Norton, Henry F. Parker, John M. Lee and Frank J. King, reported on the work done at the park in part as follows: In the report of a year ago it was tated that there remained for comple- tion about 1550 feet of the road known as the Taftville entrance and that a special effort would be made to finish this main entrance way by the end of the municipal vear, From the Taftville entrance the best view can be had that is obtain- ‘able in the park. Along the entire course, a mile and one sixth in length, one finds the situation gttractive and in keeping with the beautiful scenery, prevailing throughout the park, but from Ox Hill, particularly, ca be had a view of the surrounding country equalling in beauty any sceme which this part of the state can present. It is hoped thut the public in constantly -reasing numbers, wtil use this road if only for the purpose of being able to bear witness to the special natural attractiveness of our part of the state which is noted for scenery not merely picturesque, but often sublime.
