It i my wish to call the attention of parents and patrons of the city school to four matter which are vitally con nected with the matter of securing th best results in th public school work. 1. It 1 alarming to note the number of (mail children who are addicted, will fully; to the tobbaco habit and profanity. Parent and others will greatly assist us t"iy will bring all passible pressure to bear upon these matters. ' Do not be de ceived. Perhaps your jiwn phild is on of them. Investigate and see. 2. The deportment of school children of all ages, while on the street is in sad need of correction. About 75 per cent of the children who throng the postofhc and public streets, engaging in profanity, fighting, loud talk and rudeness, have no business on the public streets and at ' the post office at all,.... Why . not make,, an ef fort to decrease this offensive conduct? shall indeed be grateful if offence like the above are reported to me, .with name, f ? ft' ' i j t 'te r 3.

The Ch'nese merchants admit that the flour is not as good as ours, but they are committed to this war on Amer ican products, and are prepared to make sacrifices for a principle he has been mightily stirred up oyer the issue. The boycott is just reaching the interior, for methods of communication are slow, and if the strike were called off today it would take a year for the news to reach the provinces up the river. . "Not only .the Australians, but the Jap anese also art taking advantage of the boycott to get our business. Cotton mills are being established in China by Japanese houses, and with cheap labor and no transoortation charges, they are in a po sition to drive u out of tn neia. uray will also develop the steel or of Coriea. and probably th oil. In th! way our vast kerosene and steel business will be taken over by the Japanese. "The only th'ng that could raise the boycott would be to rescind Chinese ex clusion law and this, of course, will not be done. It looks as though our business in the south of China was doomed. The boycott is getting wors evary day there." It doe not wrinkl your nos and mak you look older than you are. Holiday good are beginning to arriva. Best liu ordered ver brought to th city.

Look up the whereabouts of your own boy and see if there is any sensible reason why he should be out at night instead of at home engaged in some useful pursuit. - 4. Social Parties I am apprised that parents art permitting children in the up per grades to hold social parties on school nights. This is ruinous to good work in school. I am sorry indeed that some parents art interested so .little in the school that they will thus hinder and in jure the school. Of course some will say it is no business of mine what the child does. Perhaps not ; Perhaps It is. But at any rate, the standard of schoul work in La Grande will always be low so long as parents encourage children thus to cul tivate an indifference for school. ' Please assist us by seeing that th parties oc cur on Friday or Saturday nights. : ,( '.' ; k Js M. Martin, ' - Supt of Schools.
