PARENTS AND THE SCHOOLS.
Now that the schools, in city, town
and conn try, are opening again it is
proper to urge upon parent to take an
interest in the school work of their
children.
Mr. Charles Petty,the scholarly edi?
te cf the Carolina Spartan,. writes
very entertainingly and forcibly upon
this subject in the last issue of his
paper. He says:
The teacher's duty is to assist the
home training children. Too many pa?
ds think that they are relieved from
responsibility when their childen
start to school. Here are some things
expected of parents:
They should get their children ready
so as to be at the school room on time.
Clothing and person should be clean.
Children shoild not loiter on the
streets and stand around the stores.
Teach them to go home as soon as dis?
missed.
Encourage no tale-telling.. Do not
find fault with teachers in the pres?
ence t)f your children.
if the teacher's work is unsatisfac?
tory call on her and clearly make yct?r
complaint in a friendly way. If she
wrong she will change her plans
thank you for your interest in the
vpork.
It is never a gooo plan to censure a'
teacher by writing a note. These
steel pens are very sharp and often
say things that one regrets.
Visit the school occasionally. The
teacher can do. only a small part of
tfoe training work. The mont of it
must be done at home or left undone.
If a teacher is doing good work do
not be afraid now and then to show
your appreciation by telling her that
much. It is very encouraging.
A hundred years ago*'Good Morals"
-was in the curriculum of colleges and
: high schools. It is now left out of
catalogues and often out of training
work. At the foundation of this de?
partment is politeness. That is neg?
lected in some families.. That has to
"be taught st home.' Did you ever visit
a family, the children of which were
so noisy and self assertive that it was
a relief to get away? If children are
not taught genuine politeness, respect
for elders, and good behavior in pub
ite. filase their education is lacking. -
Let all parents take more interest in
their children's studies, in the teach
?Q&s tmd especially in the home train;

The Stomach is the Man.
A weak stomach weakens the mau, be?
cause it cannot transform the food he eats
into nourishment. Health and strength
cannot be restored to any sick man or
weak woman without first restoring health
sud strength to the stomach. A weak
stomach cannot digest enough food to
feed the tissues and revive the tired and
ns down limbs and organs of the body.
