PARENT-TEACHER ASSN.

The local committee which was ap-
pointed last Tuesday evening at a
meeting held in the interests of the
Parent Teacher associations, has called
mass meeting of the citizens and
school patrons to be held in the high
school room on Tuesday evening, Oct.
18th, for the presentation of the sub
ject, and, if feasible, to proceed with
an organization.
The movement of Parent Teacher
associations is widely spread through
out the United States. 1t is an object
of the organization to keep in intelli-
gent and sympathetic touch with
school affairs. The aim is to secure
the best privileges and conditions for
school work, and wherever organized
it is welcomed by educators.
a recognized defect of the public
school system is its tendency to pure
ly informatory lines, overlooking the
great essential of human interest.
Where the instructors are thrown into
close personal contact with the patrons
this human interest is developed. This
desired condition is brought about by
the Parent Teacher associations.
The committee in charge of the
movement in Danville is Rev. James
Wollaston Kirk, Rev Charles Gamer
on Snavely, J. N. Pursel, Mrs. l. H.

Col. W. C. Greene is Immense Iy Wealthy, Newspaper Re, ports to the Contrary Not withstanding

That Colonel W. C. Greene, who has been reported to be down ana out" financially in nearly every paper ID the country IS not 80 badly of financially as has been supposed, is the latest report coming from Cana Dea. his home city, and is seemingly well authenticated.
 If the report Is to be believed there is hardly a man in B.sbee who would not be willing to be on the same down and out" list. When all of the tangles caused by the effect of the recent financial sringency have been straightened out of his affairs, he will be the possessor of between two and four million dollars, .t is said.
 Colonel Greene Is far better of financially than many beheve,' salo the man who brought the rcmor from Cananea. He will be able to pay everything and still have enough mil lions left to carry on mining opera tons on properties he owns in Chi huahua This is his intention when he has fully recovered his health, which he is now rapidly doing. He has some very rich properties which were not included in any of his mining ventures previous to this time"
 That this Is the case win doubtless be pleasant news to the old time Bisbee friends of Colonel Greene, who have imagined, rom the news paper stories circulated about him, tlat he was in the rear rank for keeps"
