He may do any one OF "a thousand other

this reason that parents will not object

Of a deficient child constantly undergo. II

take away the child. and thus relieve the
mother and father OF the constant dread
OF the unexpected and of the unknown?
The plan is a simple one. If it is carried

California before an assemblage OF
nearly ten thousand teachers. Mrs.
Ella Flagg Young was duly inducted

she has two representatives to bring
home some of the wealth of sugges-

At the last meeting of the Daugh

Cided to ask the mayor to call a
ioint meeting of the daughters, the
sons, the confederate veterans and
the citizens of Ardmore TO discuss
and formulate plans for the state
meeting which convenes here the
first week in September
1t was thought best to defer this
meeting until the commercial club
had installed their new officers, which
will take place on next Tuesday night.
Immediately after the installation
the call will be issued and the citi
zens are urged to note its importance.
This will be an especially large and
important convention and will be a
great advertisement for our city. The
