In order that there may be a closer relation between parents and teachers in regard to the where abouts of the children attending the public schools uniform excuse blanks have been provided and will be sent to the parents by the child ren who have been absent. The parents should fill these out and send them back not later than the day following the receipt of same. Blanks have also been provided for the teacher to fill out and send to the parents when any pupil has been detained after 4:00 p. m. These blanks tell reason of detention and number of minutes detained. Any child detained after school will be given one of these blanks filled out and parents should require them of their children. The public school is the servant of the people to the end that boys and girls may become better citi zens. The attitude of the parents in regard to the conduct of their children is one of the most essential features of the public schools. To those parents who have boys or girls in the basket ball teams I will say that the girls practice hour is at 4:00 p. m. and they should reach home not later than 5:00 p. m. The boys practice hour is at 7:00 p. m. and they should reach home not later than 8 : p. m. Yours for better schools, Herman O.
