The meeting held in the town hall last
Friday evening In the interests of our
schools was very interesting and in
structive. 1t 10 always a pleasure to
hear from the graduates of our high
school who have made a success in the
world. Their subject was one Of prime
Importance to our town and the ad-
dresses themselves especially instruc-
tive and practical Prof. William j.
Leonard Of the University of West Vir-
gina presided and introduced MrsA Mar
garet Leonard Derby Of Columbus, Ohio.
Mrs. Derby's subject was THE home
and school," She told of the work which
this association had accomplished in Co.
lumbus in securing cooperation between
the home and school. She said Its first
work was to get the parents and teach
ers acquainted There are thousands
of parents in this country who never see
the faces of the teachers of their chill
dren." Later in the association we learn
in what ways parents and teachers may
help each other. The Columbus associa-
ton began with 20 members. If 20
women in the city of Columbus accom-
plished so much, she asked, What
might 20 women in Hinsdale do?" This,
however, should include all citizens not
merely mothers or parents. There is no
better business asset for town than
good schools. If people who are worth
while think of moving to new place
their first question Is about the quality
of it's schools. The best reputation that
a town can have is that of sending out
from it young people who are worth
while"
Frank E. Mason, teacher in one Of
Boston's high schools, was then intro
duced. Mr.. Mason spoke principally of
the high school. 1.-THE alumni reunion
of two years ago." he said would con-
vince the most skeptical of the value of
the Hinsdale high school. There is a
general unrest not only in Hlnsdale but
in high schools generally. The tendency
is toward introducing Industrial educa-
ton in high schools. There is a danger
that this will be carried too far. The
broader general education is needed A
school will be good, bad or Indifferent
according to its principal. When I was
in this high school the conditions were
ideal. Hinsdale can least afford to give
that man may succeed without an ed
ucation, the time for that Is past. AS
ex-President futile said "Self-made
men are as scarce as self laid eggs,
therefore get all the education you can"
Mr. Leonard then introduced Arthur
B. Buchanan, the new high school prin-
cipal, who spoke briefly, asking the CO.
operation of all in making the high
school a success during the coming year.
An informal social hour followed dur
ing which the subject was further dis
cussed. The opinion was general that
IT would be calamity to the town to
lose its high school,
