what he really is. No school reaches
its highest possibilities without the CO.
operation and sympathy OF its patrons.
In order that stronger school senti-
ment and deeper interest may by mani
tested and that parents may come In
closer touch with teachers, Wednesday,
January 2s, 1909, is set apart as pub
lie School Day" for the schools of this
county. Parents and patrons are urged
to lend encouragement to the schools
by their frequent presence during the
term, but a special invitation is extend
ed to them on this day. A parents and
patrons day without parents and pat

out the object. Let parents sacrifice
something, If necessary, to be in attend

He also was instructed to tender to

settlement OF the difficulties between
Colombia and Panama. The issue is
awaited with some anxiety hers.
AS an earnest of the desire of the
State Department to continue on friendly
terms with the Colombian government,
It is pointed out that without bringing
direct pressure to bear the Department
Is disposed to do everything In Its power
to save any equities Colombia may lave

The treaty In Its text cannot be made

First because of the unwrltten law
which obliges the Stat, Department to
await the pleasure of the Senate IN the
