Plain Talk to Parents

A writer in the Sioux City
Journal gives some trenchant sug-
gestions to parents, from which we
quote:
"Do not fail to make allowance
for slight exaggeration when hear
ing of pranks in school.
"Do not accuse the teacher Of
undue favortism. II kinder to one
than an other it's because that one
does not take advan tage of the lib.
erty allowed him. This is simple
justice.
Don't tell the teacher that
Willie will not lie. She may know
better.
"Do not condemn the teacher
without q fair hearing. That is
accorded to even the worst Grim
nal. There are usually two sides
to the story.
"Do not send a scathing note to
the teacher by Nellie, the contents
OF which she knows. Her aggres-
sive look is not soothing to the
teacher who is only human.
"DO not make unfav orable com.
ment upon the metho de Of tht
teacher in the presence of your
child. Send him to carry in wood
while you are doing 90, il it mus
be done.
"Do not expect the teacher II
understand Jimmie's disposition
the first day. You have studied
it for six yea rs, and there are still
kinks in it which you have fsile,
to etraighten out.
"Do not send . verbal request &

"Do not insist that the teache
