1t is the wish of every patriot
lie parent that his child shall
stand in the front ranks of the
business world. To get these re-
suits the teacher, the parent and
the child must work together.
Open munity with the school
meals hinderance to the child to
attain this high standing. There
should be close unity. Consult
freely on these subjects which
will largely determine the well
fare of the future of the child.
If your child is not doing well
in school it is your duty to see
the teacher and help her to de-
wise plans which will remedy the
evil. "Don't! Don't" pour out
your wrath on the teacher at the
supper table in the presence of
the children. 1t only means that
your children will reap what you
sow for them. They will have no
confidence in the teacher, cause
trouble in the school, and lose all
interest in learning. If the evil
exists in school see the teacher
and it will be made right.-Oak

and unlawful manning of mares,
had a hearing before Justice Gar
vim at Kingsville Monday, where
the case was taken on a change
of venue from Elm. 1t was an UNI
usual cas- and peculiar in many

guilty. The evidence brought out
the fact that after Carter was
charged with the crime he gave
a chattel mortgage to secure a

son, the agrieved party and own
er of the mare, for damage he
was charged with committing.

should have set on foot an I'M
