THE PUBLIC SCHOOL

New students enrolled this week are
Daisy Carter, Gladys Carter, Nellie
Auger and Raymond Rudolph.
January is a good month to begin high
school work. Glasses in Zoology and
English history begin next week and the
division in the work of other classes
makes it convenient for the pupils to
start at this time.
There are 1900 teachers in Colorado
and 201S of them were in attendance at
the association at Denver last week.
President Aylesworth of the state agri-
cultural college was elected for the en-
suing year.
The sewing class cleaned Sl7.00 from
their Christmas sale.
The library and the office We're re-
fioored during the holidays and present
greatly improved appearance. A new
four compartment Globe Wernicke card
catalogue case has been added to the
library equipment and the work of cata-
Logging the library on up to date lines
has begun in earnest.
1t is planned to have parents day
program in few weeks. A special pro-
gram will be given in each room from
80 to 2:30 in honor of the patrons of
the school, after which the schools will
be dismissed and the parents and teac-
hers will repair to the high school as
sembly room for the discussion of sub
jects relating to the work of the schools.
Formal subjects will be assigned to
different persons and full and free gen
eral discussion will be expected. After
the program in the high school all will
repair to the sewing room for a social
hour. There is probably no place in the
state where parents more generally CO.
operate with the teachers in advancing
the interests of the school and where
there are fewer objections to the plans
adopted for carving on the work of the
school. We believe chat better ac-
quaintance between parents and teach
ers and better knowledge of the work
we are trying to do will help not only to
make permanent those cordial relations
that already exist between the home
and the school but will make more eff
fective every combined effort of these
two agencies to increase the opportuni
ties and improve the advantages of the
young people of this community. The
date of this meeting will be announced
soon. Let every school patron plan to
be present.
