a. e a Paper.

That the raw material for the
manufacture OF paper is becoming
scarcer at an alarming rate is due.
IN addition to the increase in size
and circulation Of newspapers and
magazines, to growing number OF
Auses to which the paper can be pu'
AN editorial writer who has studied
the situation. digs up the following
interesting Information about them:
In Chicago they have found a
way to make paper garments. These
are rapidly coming into use in hos
pitfalls. They are airy and flexible.
and are made from the bark OF the
paper mulberry tree.
Another comparatively new form
OF paper fabrics is the paper bag for
eooklng. and this has rapidly de-
aveloped an important line OF trade.
There are factories for paper bot
stles and papar grain bags in Phila
sdelphia. ana in one Of the New Eng
land cities an ingenious person
manufactures paper cigars. Paper
horseshoes have been on the market
Tor some time and paper tires are
promised. Over in Germany an in
genious inventor has made a rein
forced paper that can be used in
constructing houses and ships and
automobiles. and even in paving
streets. ~
While the outlook for the future
paper supply appears ominous, the
cheerful hope is held out that some
eof these clever inventors will even
tually invent a. substitute for papeA
Itself, or substitute for present
raw materials that enter into tho
manufacture Of paper, possibly by
product that is now thrown to waste.
There never was truer saying than
that necessity is the mother OF in
ventfon.

'sThe teacher and the parent must
work together for the ideal educa-
ton OF our boys and girls. The
highest emeiency can. only be at-
tanned by symmetrical Development
OF the three-fold nature Of the child !:
physical, mental and moral. "A per-
son in health can never be at his

power that comes with mental de-
velopnents while the robust phys
zeal nature with finely developed
intellect. is a miserable failure when
coupled with an undeveloped 'or
mis-directed moral nature said
EProf McGinnls.
.As the parent has Full control CT
the child in the homes so the .larE
gives the teacher full control of him
while in school. The teacher is ac-
countable not to the individual par
ent, but to the state. The parent
knows best the individual traits and
natural tendencies OF his child, while
the teacher sees him from a different
point OF yieY-that Of his position
among others in the school. Hence
accomplish the highest good for his
tween parent and teacher will be OF
mutual aedt and Of inestimable
value to ne child. No teacher can
accomplish the highest god for his
pupils without the hearty co-opera-
ton OF the parents, and the right
public sentiment in the. community

is hoped that the parents will use
their influence with these young

ANOTHER School Meeting.

At its meeting on Thursday evening the
Board of Education decided to ask per
mission from the taxpayers of North.
ampton to purchase the 5traugh proper.
ties on Brainard street, adjoining the
Heard property already owned by the
Board.
The properties can be purchased fol
s.. 900 and no more money will be asked,
the proposition being to allow the
Board to purchase the properties and have
$4,000 less for building and furnishing
It Is thought that the plans for building
can be pared down to the extent of allow
| ing the other property to be acquired.
With the Straugh properties there will
be great advantages There lie an alley or
the west Of the houses and 1t cannot be
closed. This will give additional light
and ventilation on that side. 1t will also
change the building line so that all of the
Jamison lot will not be required to build
upon, thus giving more air and light space
on that side. As the appropriations al
ready voted will not be Increased there
ought not be any objection to the request
of the Board of Education.
