Duty of Parent to School and 1 eacher. ------- The foilwing paper was road by our townsnmn, It. S. Kuowlton, at the recent meeting of the Coquille Publio School ImprovementLcague: Madam President, Ladies and Gentlemen: It is with timidity that I appear before you today, because at former meetings you huvo bceu entertained by much abler speakers. At our last meeting we had the pleasure of listening to a verv able paper from the gifted pen of the p re8ideut of this society. Until then I had not realized the exceed- jng iarge scope of the subjects of The East Fork of the North Fork afiords no very desirable location below Minard's mill dam, but above the dam the river could be success- fully worked at several different points. A hatchery, though above the dam, would always be at a dis­ great interest that may be discussed advantage and dependent entirely on this floor. I would like to see upon the operator or owner of the that paper published in some of the dam maintaining a good and easy literary journals, for I know that it passage way for fish.

Three years ago I looked over That paper dealt with the child quite thoroughly the South Fork and the Middle Fork of the South from infancy till it reached the Fork of the Coquille and found proper age to enter public school. nothing that looked very encourag­ Let us hope that in the near future ing as we were at that, time depend­ the gifted autnor will continue the ing upon the old style rack which subject, following the child through proved to be of little service, espe­ the next eight years, or through the cially in the ooast streams; but now public school. with the new style of rack that I have adopted for the coast streams it seems to me from my remembrance of those tributaries, locatiaus can be secured where work could be suc­ cessfully carried on, if not for the logging, and this spring after the roads get in better shape, I will look them both over again in 4he hopes of being able to find some, thing desirable. The subjeot assigned me today is “The Duty of Parent to School and Teacher.’’ In considering the sub­ ject I find it difficult to determine whether I am dealing with duty to the teacher or to the pupil, for it seems to me that the two are identi­ cal and insuperable. Duty to the teacher always implies duty to the pupil, and the reverse is equally true. In considering this subject The receipts of the office during we will deal only with the public the month have been as per the school.

Josh’s Place, Children should be dressed comfort­ ably, not necessarily fine, for neither fine clothes nor money will pur­ chase a rating not earned, for in our publio schools the children of the poorest parents are placed on equal footing with those of the wealthiest. “Lickin’ and Lamin’,” as de­ scribed in The Hoosier School Master, should be a thing of the past. If parents will give proper consideration to the report cards that are sent out every month, it will keep them informed on the progress their children are making. Let them examine these monthly reports, and if they find the rating low in any branch, then investigate the matter. If the child ¡3 weak in that brunch, give it more aid and e icouragement, if it is due to any oilier cause, then apply the proper remedy. This idea applies more especially to the rating on deport­ ment, If all parents will look carefully to the deportment of their children, the necessity of punish­ ment by the teacher will be reduced to a minimum, if not entirely elim­ inated from the school. Fareutal love which is natural, aud should be cultivated and en­ couraged covers a great mauy faults, yet we should not allow it to make us entirely blind to the faults of our childreu. Parental pride is commendable, especially if inspired by seeing success crown the effort to properly rear nud educate tho child. Yet paternal love and pride Bhould not influence our minds quite to the extent it did that of the fond uother, who, when she watched the whole school march by remarked that her boy was the only one in step. The order of things should be such that attending school and ac­ quiring the knowledge noceaoary to properly fit one for facing the world, and qualifying him for successfully following some useful avocation, would be a pleasure and not a bur­ den. Then in future years bis mind would love to revert to bis school days as bis best aud brightest days, aud to the school as truly his Alma Mater. $ Billiard Card rooms Ó and and /IN ([; Po o Tables 7K Soft Drinks Fruits, Nuts, Candies, Cigars and ^ Tobacco.
