a New Church Building.

The Presbyterian people are plan
1t seems evident to all concerned that
it will be more wise to build a new
structure than to attempt to repair the
old one in satisfactory way. A small
Ter, neat, modern building with a seat
ing capacity of about 200 will meet the
needs of the congregation and will be
a substantial improvement to the APP
pearance of the town. Subscription
papers are being circulated to raise
sufficient money to pay for building
costing about $1800.00. 1t lis expected
that al least 100000 will be secured
here in the community. The Presby-
terrain Board of Church Erection and
other friends will provide the remain
der.
The members of the church and con-
gregation will be canvassed first and
are urged and expected to give to their
utmost ability to this very worthy
cause. The new building is to be their
own church home, therefore they
should provide for it as conscientiously
as they do their own homes.
The citizens of the town, especially
the business men, will be asked to con-
tribute something. on the ground that
a new public building of this kind is a
great benefit to the town, adding to its
appearance and becoming attractive to
visitors and home-seekers as we'll as
standing for all the good things which
the organization itself stands for.
Therefore for business reasons, if for
no other, business men should give
literally to this just cause. Wise men
realize the benefit of the presence and
work of the churches in any town or
community. The church stands for
law and order; the difference between
its presence and absence means the
difference between civilization and

Public School Notes.

Owing to much sickness and op-
pressiveness of the weather last week.
only halliday sessions were held part
of the time.
Entire enrolment in white school,
1852 pupils; in colored school, 46 pu-
pills; total, 1913.
Number of pupils in High School.
50; in Room 3, 80; In Room 2, 80; in
Room /, As. Pretty good attendance.
considering the sickness in the Valley.
Number of grades or classes in the
High School, 3; in Room 8, 2; in
Room 2, 2; in Room /, 8.
The fewer the number of pupils and
classes a teacher has, the more effec-
tive and progressive work should be
done.
Not single case of hardness. Thus
far, it is well.
The regularity in attendance could
been improved upon. Try to have your
children present each day.
Number of pupils in the High School
sixteen years or over, 20.
If any grades must be crowded, let
it be the upper grades. Forty pupils,
however, are enough for any teacher,
so far as effective teaching is concern
ed.
If you desire promotion-prove it.
A pupil is known by his work.
The new seats for Room have not
yet arrived, though very much needed.
Science work is now being taught
effectively. The chief aims of which
are: first, to develop in the pupil the
power of independent, accurate and
systematic observation; second, to aid
the pupil in acquiring the ability to
describe clearly and concisely the
facts of his observation and study;
third, to teach the pupil to correlate
facts observed and draw from them
logical differences and conclusions,
thus leading to self-reliance and indie
pendence of thought.
Misses Martin, Edgar and Fitz were
welcome visitors to the High School
department this week. Come again.
Would it not be good thing to re-
move the apple trees from the
school yard before another summer
rolls around?
The window curtains are sadly in
need of repair in many places.
Children should pass directly home
when excused from school work.
Parents are requested to consult
with the Principal concerning the
work or department of their children
at school. Very Respectfully,
RoB'T f. WILKINSON.
