Office The fifth lesson in the character course for^teachers was led by Eether Wilson, teacher at Norway, and Cora Mackey, teacher at Roy. The matter of feelings of the child in relationship to school discipline was the subject of discuuion, also the influence of the home upon the school was taken into consideration. Teachers in general throughout the country are beginning to realize that in the effort to reach higher standards in academic subjects they have been neglecting the more important task of developing charac ter. Therefore they are attempting to work out the best means of bringing about this important result. The writer being both a parent and a teacher, however, feels that schools in general have not fallen down in this matter of "making men and women" to the extent that the average home has. It is hoped that both the homes and the schools will put forth more effort to inculcate in the boys and girls those characteristic« which make for real worth. The last of the six classes will be conducted by Gertrude Borgard and Elizabeth Bennett, of Myrtle Point, next Tuesday. < Safety First! Use Cow Bell Dairy’s Pasteurised Milk and protect your Health.
