Who Has Charge of Senior Prepara

School.
nation's life and vitality, in the race
for dollars, so, through Inadequate
schoolinff. the boys of the country are
being wasted and quickly thrown on
to the junk heap of a purposeless army
of unskilled. Their condition 'is dis
heartening to themselves and of in
calculable loss to the nation.
Something - must be done to check
this stream of boys leaving school.
We are proud of and grateful for our
public schools, but more of them
speedily should adapt their courses to
meet present day needs, give greater
attention to holding boys through the
earlier years of preparation, provide
vocational advice and in other ways
attempt to prevent rather than try,
late, to cure a most serious evil.
The business' and industrial world
today calls loudly for skilled workers
and pays them in direct proportion to
their efficiency. But how can inade
quately trained boys attain efficiency?
Leaving school early in their teens
they are worth but little, have poor
foundations upon which to build, drift
about aimlessly for years and finally
settle where the business or indus
trial swirl leaves them. Thus rhey
are largely lost as efficient workers
for the world's work; industry and
business suffer; the nation is robbed
of capable citizens before they are of
a citizen's age, and they, themselves
are doomed to failure and eventually,
dependency.
The Young Men's Christian Asso
ciation night school has been organ
ized to meet this need. The work has
had a healthy growth In efficiency as
well as in activities and enrollment.
There are almost -10,000 men and boys
studying in this manner throughout
the country.
The custom of securing live business
men as teachers for the working boys
has not only brought the boy in con
act with the up-to-date business
world, but practical education through
one who knows through experience.
The local Y. M. C. A. has been for
tunate in securing for its night school
classes for boys the following faculty:
Mr. Penn Harvey, who unites with
105 South Palafox-Street
his success as an up-to-the-mlnuta
business man a college training and
teaching ; experience will have charge
of the senior preparatory class, which
will undertake the work correspond
ing to that of the seventh and eighth
grades.
Mr. Robert Stout, a promising young
lawyer and also with university train
ing, will be in charge of "the junior
preparatory class, which, corresponds
to the fifth and sixth grades.-,
This work is designed to help the
boy attain the equivalent of a gram
mar school education. Business, Eng
lish, spelling, arithmetic, penmanship,
history, geography, etc. will t b In
cluded in the curiculum.
Prof. Wm. Tyler, assistant princi
pal of the high school and head of
the commercial work in the same in
stitution, will have charge of the com
mercial work.
The present enrollment far exceeds
that of former years.

FIRST 1EETII1G
THE TEACHERS
S INTERESTING
"PERSONAL IMPROVEMENT OF
TEACHERS" THE TOPIC DIS
CUSSED OFFICERS ARE ELECT
ED.
Though no definite programhad
been announced, rather a representa
tive body of men and women attended
the first meeting of the City Teach
ers' Association yesterday morning at
school No. 1, and the general subject
announced by the president aroused
an interesting discussion. This was
the "Personal Improvement of Teach
ers." In presenting it to the associa
tion, the president emphasized the ne
cessity for such Improvement in order
that teachers might become more ef
fective directors of child life to the
end that not only might the general
standard of class work be Improved
an d raised, but that a general spirit
of co-operation among pupils might
be aroused and strengthened to the
point where each child might take ale
part in upholding order, assisting In
the Improvement of school life, and
in the meantime of high standards of
worS and conduct. By careful per
sonal examination teachers might so
improve their -own work that they
could finally bring about In the pupils
under them a, spirit of doing every
piece of work, no matter . how ap
parently lnsignlftcant. In the very best
possible manner, and that m this way
there might come Into the lives of Tie
children something of real spirit of the
true craftsman and along ' with It
something of a community spirit that
will give everybody in the city the
ardent desire to put his shoulder to
the wheel and help the city wherever
it needs help a , universal "pull-together
spirit," that will help this good town
to come Into Its own.
Following ' the talk of Professor
Lane, several of the teachers took up
the discussion and devoted swme time
to various phases of the question.
Prof. D. L. Miine, of the High School,,
spoke impressively on the personal
care of pupils, as a phase, of the
larger question, and the development
of backward. pupils Into a better qual
ity of workers, as well as the psycho
logical effect of grading on, the pupils
themselves, putting great emphasis on
the importance of recognizing effort
as more important than were attain
ment. JMlss Pauline Reese," principal
of school No.l, brought up again thu
general question of school spirit and
order, stressing- the value little
things In- securing the best conditions
and results, the overcoming of results
of bad home environment, and sug
gested that every teacher should make
careful study of the best educational
writers on the tquestlona of such nr.at
ters in the guiding and development
of child life. Mrs. Nannie Thomas,
Mrs. A. K." Sater and Miss Maud Su
ter took part In the discussion, the
following Important points being
brought out, that in the grades some
of the rudest children come from wbat
are regarded as the best homes, and
that in the humbler homes It is often
the discipline of self-denial that brings
out the gold In the character of child
hood. '
The following officers were elected
to serve for the school year, president,
Prof. B. B. Lane; vice-president. Miss
Evelyn Thornton; secretary, Miss
Ethel Clarke; treasurer. Miss Olive
Andrews. The executive committee of
the association is composed of the of
fl..r. anA the following appointed by
the president, Miss Pauline Reese, Mrs.
A. K. Suter, and Mrs. O. ?!. McRey
nolds; the committee is to hold a
meeting at the Grammar School Wed
nesday afternoon at 3:45 for the pur
pose of planning the year's work.
Blanks were ordered printed for
requisitions for sick benefits.
The association voted to adopt res
olutions extending their sympathy to
Mrs F". E. Brawner in the death cf
her husband, the late chairman of the
Board of Public Instruction, and to
present to Mrs. Brawner a floral offer
ing from the city teachers- The fol
lowing committee was appoisfted for
this purpose. Miss Pauline Reese, Miss
Annie McMillan, and Prof. Wm. Ty
