Parents and Their Duty

A recent issue Of the Brockton,
Mass, Times contained these truthful
words
There will be no reform of our
schools until the parents OF this coun-
try understand the nature and extent
Of the problem. Parents are prone
to shift on teachers the whole Of the
intellectual and the moral training
OF their children as well. The teach
er is blamed for things not within
her province. No child or youth is
properly educated who does not get
much II not most OF its training at
the hearthstone In practice parents
imagine that paying taxes for school
purposes makes the school teachers
the mental, moral and physical guard
ians OF their children. IA truth. par
ents take too little interest in the ed
ucation. using the term in it's broad
est sense. of their children. They en-
TREY ignore II they think at all about
IL, that the schoolhouse is an adjunct
Of the home and not a substitute for
it.
Equally truthful and interesting is
the comment OF the St Adams Mes
senger:
True words. fifty spoken. Ask tho
average parents that read these
lines how many OF them have been
back to the old schoolhouse since the
day when they left It as a student.
Ask them how many Of them have
got over the old-fashioned idea that
the education OF their children is
something to be "farmed out" to a
school teacher and not something to
begin at the Preside and never lose
its connection with Il. Ask them
how they can expect this hired wom-
an OF the community to take more
interest IN the education OF their
children than they do themselves.
Ask them who is responsible for the
introduction OF their children to the
plane OF good and useful citizenship,
the stranger for hire, or the men
and women who are responsible for
their being The school problem in
Vermont and New England does nor
begin with the prudential commit
tee II begins az home.
Parents everywhere are Sinking
responsibility. They expect the
teacher to save their children from
illlteracy and the preacher TO save
them from immortality. How many
parents In Bellows Falls or the sur
rounding communities ever darkep
a schoolhouse door or stop to en-.
qulre what their children are learn
Ing In Sunday school. II accurate da-
Ia could be obtained. we should all
be greatly surprised at what seems
widespread indifference TO the intel
lectual and moral welfare OF the
young. When these young people
left largely TO the teacher and the
preacher and themselves are guilty
OF some misdemeanor or lapse from
virtue we hold up our hands ana
wonder how Il could have happened.
The time to lock the door n before
the horse is stolen. The best infiu.
ence. the controlling, impelling infiu.
ence should be the home influences
and when parents delegate their dn
ties and responsibilities 20 others
they do their offspring a great wrons.

Haverhill, Mass, Oct. S.--Ex-Coun-
Gilman A. Shirley Ladd was arrested

by Gov Draper on application of Gov.

Iadd is we'll known in this CITY, be-
ing the son of Major and Mrs. N. f.
Ladd Of Groveland. He has lived in
this city for the past ten years and
served in the city government. He
was connected with local Insurance.
firm but for the past three years has
served as secretary Of the Grain
Dealers mutual insurance company,
with headquarters in the chamber or
commerce IN Boston.
Iadd, 1t is alleged, violated the
state laws of Vermont by soliciting in
surance contrary to the laws of that
state. Friends of Ladd are inclined
to treat the matter lightly, as they
said the arrest was the outcome OF
litigation over the settlement OF fire
insurance in Vermont where in the
adjustment of losses, several compan-
les had refused to allow the claims
that were presented.

President Will Invite Confer
ence With Canadians TO
Settle Tariff TangIe.
ANNOUNCEMENT MADE
FOLLOWING AGREEMENT
Note Expresses Satisfaction at Con-
CIusion of Negotiations and Pre-
diets Way Has Been Opened for
Settlement of All Differences Be-
tween Two Governments.

Washington. March 31.-Following
iff agreement with Canada yesterday,
it is announced that President Taft
has invited Canadian officials to
conference looking to closer trade re-
lations between the two countries and
to general readjustment of duties.
The presidents invitation is includ-
ed in an exchange of notes between
Secretary Of State Knox and the do
presses satisfaction at the happy ter
mination of the tariff negotiations and
advances the hope that the way has
been opened for an early settlement
of all differences between the two
governments. including the trouble
sofe question of the water boundary
line.
The note then expresses the belief
the time is ripe for conference look
ing to the betterment of trade rela-
tions between the two countries. The
unofficial story of the negotiations
with Canada looking to the settle
ment announced, by which Canada is
declared entitled to the minimum
rates of the Payne-Aldrich law, is
perhaps more interesting than the
specific announcement as to Just what
articles are included in the conces-
sions granted on either side.
