Educational Meeting At ReAlaaA.
An interesting Educational Meeting
was held in the Public School-room
in Richland on Saturday evening
Feb. 2lst.
All the people interested in the
schools, especially the parents had
been called upon to attend the
meeting.
A good audience assembled, con-
sisting mostly Of the pupils of the
school and young people Of the
neighborhood.
There were present also some of
the parents and also a sleigh load or
two from Elk Point-pupils and
teachers of that school.
The meeting was opened with
singing by Miss Kiplinger and her
pupils, members of the Richland
school.
REGULATIONS were delivered by
Miss Berthe Morris and Miss Jennie
Bovec, also Riensi's addressed to
the Romans in concert by members
of the Elk Point school in~terspersed
with singing by members of the
school.
These recitations and The singing
were interesting and encouraging to
those who labor and pay money for
the schools showing that school
officers, teachers and patrons do not
work in vain.
Without doubt this feature of
work in the schools can he turned 10
good account in several ways.
Our schools need higher opprec;a-
ton by parents aud the public, even
more than excellent teachers, and
these successful efforts Of pupils
attract attention and beget thought
that must influence the public.
Then at proper intervals it is well to
review the results Of school labor
bef"r. the public and inquire into
the principle underlying nm educ
ton that produces honorable, patri-
otto, intelligent citizens.
Prof. Sabin of the Elk Point
schools delivered an address desiged
especially for the are and mind Of
fathers and mothers, who have chill.
dren to educate. AS his audience
vas composed mostly of the youth
full he requested each one to imagine
himself or herself a parent Of a fam
lily Of children in need Of school cul-
ture, and then proceeded 70 show
ho,c the home influences the school,
bringing wildly ~ view many home
scenes, criticisms Of the teacher
Opposition to the school, failure to
cooperate with the teacher, &c.
He closed his address by show.
ing the power Of silent influence,
drawing pertinent illustrations from
the school room, the domestic circle
and from nature. He showed tn at
even u flower placed in the window
of a neglected home may silently re-
buke the disorder and change the
whole surrounding.
IF the imagination Of this assem-
blage Of young people has been good
the address must prove as a sum OF
money put out At compound inter-
est for a term Of years,-more prof
table from year to year as the inter-
ests and duties of life crowd about
them.
Mr.. +. M. Cummins made some
remarks showing appreciation Of
schools and q fraternal spirit toward
I'LL school laborers. and extending
thanks in behalf Of the school board
and people Of Riclland TO Prot. Sa-
bin and the members Of his school
for their presence and part in this
meeting. w. H. H. FATE.
