There is a saying true to all mankind
That Education forms the common mind.
And knowledge. wheresoe'er IL be obtained.
Is far the raresI jewel ever gained.
And in this world Of turmoil and OF strife.
That comes TO everyone who lives this life,
There's not better gift in all the nation
Then a first class and finished education
Equipped With this, the battles easier fought.
And many trial will often come 20 naught.
The Challis school Will soon begin once more
To I'LL young minds with Wisdom's precious
store
And build the mound that in life's darkest
night
Will lift the student to a brighter light
The child is taught from lower grade TO
higher.
Along llfe's road at all times to aspire
To higher walks and learns the lesson we'll
That in future years Will surely tell
Twill give your child a well developed mini
And help to master trials Of every kind
SO heed this maxim and adopt this rule
And send your child to Chsllis Public school
The Challis Public School will
commence next Monday morn

and the Board of Trustees have
endeavcred to secure teachers
this year who will give US a good
school. Therefore it is neces-

in such a condition is a. blank
failure. The first great battle is
won when the teacher forms the
love of the scholars. and the par
ents are often in fault in this
matter as well as the teacher.
just because your child or child
ren are enrolled in the Primary
room don't act as if that depart
ment was the only one that you
cared a straw for; or, if your
children are in the Principals
room don't think that is the only
department in the school worthy
of your attention. for you should
bear in mind that there other
scholars enrolled in some other
department that are just as good
and just as smart as your child
or rchildren-although, perhaps
you may not think so. There is
no reason why Challis should not
have school that would prepare
its studens for the common bust
ness battles of life. Almost
everything that the scholar needs
can be taught here. There is nc
use sending your children away

they know something about alge

Latin, or the multiplication table,
for it is time wasted. But, oil
course, there is great deal in 6
