This Is not a question that Interests teachers a lone, but the responsibility rests -with the school patrons as well. We bt lieve that much could be accomplish ed If the custom of holding school boarfl conventions could be adopted; 'and to publish school-board Journals. A step was taken In the right di rection In some parts of the state a few years ago when the parents" meeting was started. Independence may not have grasped the Importance of this effort, but In many places parents' meetings have been a great help in promoting the cause of edu cation. It is the opinion of many educators that greater achievements can be realized from th:a method than from perhaps any other, for there are certain conditions In the school room today, more partic i'nrly In the public school, that parent only can remedy-Home life and the school life are Inseparable. The influence of the on mutt act upon the other, but the home influence is the stronger and has a greater effect in moulding char acter. For the best results It is ab solutely necessary that the parent and the teacher should work hand in hand. There are two ways in which this can be done. First, by forming co operative associations which all par ents and feathers in one ward should be urged to join. These local meet ings could occasionly give place to j a eenerai meeting, in me wuuu place parents should visit the schools, not in a critical spirit, but to learn what the teacher is doing and to aid In the work.
