man, II have scheme whereby you

The captain of industry sat up and

THEY DON'T KNOW

It was wise suggestion on the part of George s. Fuller at Saturday s special school meeting in Canaan that action on the proposition to provide better school house facilities be deferred until January 4, 1908. There was no one in attendance at the meeting who had clear idea as to the best course to pursue and it is a matter in which no false or unwise moves should be made. The school committee and contractor Lorraine pointed out several ways by which to relieve the present congestion, but none of these gentlemen were prepared to say which should be adopted. They frankly state that they don't know. It is the future fully as much as, if not more than, the present that must be provided for and it it is difficult, very difficult, matter to decide exactly what should be ~done. Thought and investigation will, however, bring about an intelligent con- olusion between the present time and the date of the next meeting.

THE PROPER SPIRIT

We report, practically verbatim, in another column, the remarks made Sat- urday at Canaan's special school meet ing, by Daniel l.. Pierce, one of the grand old men" of Canaan who has passed his four score years. His words carry the true spirit, they have the proper ring, and we trust they will touch a responsive chord in the hearts of every villager who heard them or who reads them. And they have greater weight coming as they do from a man whose sons aud daughters several years ago since passed the school age and whose advocacy Of better school privileges and facilities is prompted simply by 9ener, ous and whole hearted desire that the children who attend this school shall have placed at their disposal every opportunity for advancement in order that they may become intelligent, valu able and respected citizens. No mer cenary or selfish motive can in any way attach itself to such pleas for improved conditions.

PURE cUSSEpNESS

In the extract from Rev. E. O. Gillette s sermon on local topics. printed in this paper last week, the following sentence appeared: "In some places there IS an appalling growth of hoodlumism. In this place (Canaan) it has reached no such proportions but we have got to look out"
 The reverend gentlemen is right; we must lookout. The growth of hoodlumism may not be appalling but it is decidedly noticeable, particularly on the part of boys whose ages vary from to 16 years and this statement will be supported by dozens of people who have either wit messed the disgraceful actions of these boys on the street or whose property has suffered as the result of the hoodlumlsm and vandalism. There is something wrong somewhere when these things are permitted to continue and the natural inference is that there is laek of proper home training. This may not be true fin all cases but, to all appearances, 1t h in many. It is also true that many fathers and mothers are ignorant as to the behavior of their children on the streets. If they knew of many of the acts of ''pure cussedness" committed by their offspring, they would feel con- strained to take the said offspring across . knee, reach for the reliable slipper, strap or switch, and bring the same in contact with the offspring's anatomy at . point where it would do the most good.
 We might go further into detail and state some facts from observation that would surprise many Canaan parents but we trust the above hints will be suffic- ient to bring about a reform in the matter of street behavior, or the lack iof it, on the part of some of the Canaan youngsters. ...
 As the minister says, there is need to look out.
