 Relations Between Home and School.

 dall, who opened the meeting with
 duced the topic: "Clcser relations be-
 tween home and school why and
 howg'
 Principal Crandall indicated five
 reasons why: 1st, Because both were
 working for the same end. to make
 strong and useful men and women Of
 the children. 2d, Cooperation is nec-
 essary to the attainment of this end
 3d, In our busy modern life there is
 tendency for the home and the
 school to drift apart 4th. School and
 home can help each other in the so- times misunderstandings arise which are easily settled if the school and
 home work in harmony. but which
 may otherwise cause serious trouble. Five ways to obtain the desired end were shown: 1st By parents visit
 ing the schools on special days and
 when regular work is in progress. 2d, By visits of the teacher at the homes of the students 3d. By written or published reports. 4th, By parents
 meetings and by parents association. 5th. By individual talks since the re- lation between parents and teachers should be frank and mutually helpful There was a general discussion of the topic and Principal Crandall sug- gested the formation Of parents as- sociation. besides speaking of several matters pertaining to the schools well fare.
 It was suggested by F. F. Peckham that one or more old fashioned spell ing schools be held during the winter a suggestion that will probably be carried out. After the more formal part of the meeting was over, those present inspected specimens of the daily work of the pupils of the vari- ous grades. and enjoyed social time It is expected that another similar meeting will be held towards the end of the term

MILLIONAIRE'S SON

Father When Told.

BELLINGHAM, Wash. Nov. IL
The son of a millionaire. surrounded

spending money in a day than the
average boy has during a lifetime,
Fred Nolte, 16 years old, was the
object of envy among his boy COM
panions and the idol of schoolgirls Of
the community.
Why should a boy like thai become a
burglar?
That's the question agitating the
minds of Bellingham people today, fol-
lowing young Nolte's confession that
he burglarized a store of this city. He
lay for a week in the county jail under
an alias before confessing his identity.
Let him lie there" said Millionaire
George Nolte coldly when notified that
his son was in Jail.
Then the lad made a clean breast of
1t all. Now he must 81 to work in a
gravel pit on Lummi is.and. His con-
duct will be reported to the court, and
if he violates his release he will be
committed to the reform school at
Monroe.

"Greater than any line of railroads is

initiate and maintain by manufacture
and distribution the business which
makes the life and prosperity Of the
nation. But for the commerce of the
land the bankers could not use their
money, nor could the railroads be sup
ported by travellers and freights.
Commerce is not speculation, but the
very life-blood that pulsates through
every fibre of the body polite. What
will 1t matter what Wall street does. or
what the great Steel. Tobacco and. Oil

try is kept on al wen keel? To be I'M
