The Green Forest tribune., 1897-07-01

y
an article credited to the Eureka
Springs Times Echo caught my
notice. Said article was a COM
ment on Ordinance No. 16 of the
Incorporated town Of Green For
est, criticisipg quite severely the
town council tor not defining what
would be "a reasonable excuse"
for lettering on the streets after ten
O'Clock at night. The learned
editor of the Times-Echo did not
know that we were in direct con-
ncction with him by telephone ard
the town marshal was instructed
(oralIy) first, to consult his wisdom
in regard to what to do in the
premises; secondly, as the citizens
of Green Forest are not blessed
with so many cosy hooks and cor
nors, old bridges, dilapidated
houses, back alleys etc, as are to be
found in Eureka Springs, it was
thought best for our young people
TO do their "cooing" under their
parental roof, instead of the back
alleys and after ten o'clock at night;
thirdly, Green Forest is not run by
the gas of "Boston Baked Beans"
as the Times-Echo undoubtedly is,
if it has nothing more to do than
advocate streets and alleys IS the
proper retreat for Cupids darts to
play. A PARENT,
The Normal closed yesterday
after months session. Profs,
Lee and Parker have done a grand
work. and q majority of the teach
ers will go to their schools this
year better prepared than ever be-
fore to do good work. Teachers
must get out os the old ruts and
learn to use up-to-date methods. A
course of study for the country
schools has been prepared ard tho
teachers have mutually agreed to
use it. This is q long step in the
right direction. System, though
imperfect, is better than no system
at ALL Uniformity Of work is
what is needed. Multiplicity Of
methods, though each one be good
is confusing. It is not likely that
the appropriation for Normals will
be made two years hence, conse-
Qpentiy there will probably be but
one more Normal of this kind We
hope to see Ia te aohers throughout
the county take advantage of the
Instructions given and as result
we shall have better schools, long
or terms, and the true teacher will
demand better wages. Profs. Ice
and Parker have many friends n
Carroll county, besides the teach
Ners and all will rejoice in their
future prosperity, and will giadiy
welcome thom to the Normal work
in this county next year.
