my child taught morals first.
One of the first requirements of
a teacher in applying for a posi-
tion to teach school, is, "are you
qualified and have you a certifi.
cate?"
That is q good and proper
question for any body Of people
to ask. But II community should
20 further than that and ask,
"are you the right kind Of man
or woman to take charge of my
boy or girl" The man who had
spent much time and money and
worry rearing his son up in the
way he should 60, was asked by
his friends, is he worth that
much?" my boy is worth that
much to me- was the answer.
l, makes q different proposition
when it is your boy. or your girl
that is to be reared.
If were a superintendent ]
wouldn't employ q teacher to
work for any community that
possessed the following qualifica.
tions; q worldly nature, no love
for the boys and girls, a distaste
for the little fellow upon whom
fortune had not smiled. q spiteful
nature, and no disposition to try
to create q feeling in that room
that they were one big family
working for q great cause.
There is q tendency on the part
of the parents of today to have
the child hurried thru the High
School in order to get him off to
college.
Why such q feeling Of discon.
tent? Is it that the parents wish
to break the family ties as early
as possiblei This cannot be so,
yet this on the face of it seems
the motive.
Que of the most pitiful sights to
be seen is a boy off from home
unprepared for his work. He
has no one to rely upon for sue.
cor and no one in whom he can
intrust his secrets of distress.
He falls behind in bis work and
there's a failure in life because he
was sent from home too early in
life before he had been prepared
for college work.
Patrons, if you have a boy up.
on whom you have placed your
wishes for success let him stay
with you until he is prepared to
leave you, then you will have a
son that will do we'll and be salts.

Notice to Teachers.

Dear Fdit0r:-
Please announce that the next
examination will be held the first
week of December, and that no
special examination will be held
between now and then.
According to q letter from
State Supt. Harris, teachers who
do not hold certificates may be
employed to teach after the par
ish superintendent has failed to
secure qualified teachers, pre-
vided they teach under the fol.
lowing conditions: Such per.
sons may teach pending the next
examination, provided that it is
distinctly understood by the
teachers so employed and by the
school officials employing them
that such teachers shall receive
no public school funds until they
have successfully passed the ex.
animation and secured a valid
Louisiana certificate and that in
event of failure to pass the ex-
aminationation, they shall forfeit
their salaries to the state.

Pertinent Extracts From the
Address Made by Principal
w. J. Dunn, at Opening
of School at Franklinton
on Monday, Sept. 8.

of School at trankllnt0n
on Monday, Sept. 8.
One of the greatest investments
that any town or community has
is it's schools, and of all subjects
that need close investigation,
close attention, 1t is that part OF
its moneyed outlay.
Of course, for any business in
stitution to be run successfully,
and if there is a business institu'
ton in the parish, it is the school.
it must have a concensus OF opln'
ion, an agreement on all vital
points from the main.h head to the
minutest detail Of that makeup.
First there must be an homo
gently Of action between the supt'
and the Boards. Now, of course,
the Parish Board is supposed to
be supreme in authority in the
parish as a whole. Its relation to
the whole parish is similar to the
State Supt. and the State Board
to the whole state. The local
board comes in and takes unto
itself such powers as the parish
board delegates to it, this being q
verbal proposition, while in the
case of the State Supt. and the
State Board to our board it is
written in the statute form. Now,
when there ceases to be a con-
certed action between these bod
les, q discord creeps in, there is
|going to be bad results and all
will not be we'll.
So with the Supt. and princi'
pal. When there arises q time
in the history Of the school that
there is not a congenial UNDER
standing between these two
school men bad results are sure
to follow.
Now, if this be true, is it not q
fact the more 80, if there is moi
that feeling of congenialty, ear
nestness, implied confidence and
respect from one to the other, be-
tween the members of the faculty,
success is q failure? Show me 8
faculty that works together in 9
pleasant, earnest AMI conscien
tious way, and l will show you {
school that is obtaining results
turning out boys and girls tina
will be equipped for higher learn
: ing and development.
Again, If you grant me these
facts. and you know that they arr
true, self.explanatory on the fac'
ol themselves, will you not 60
step further by agreeing that
!! there must be, under all circum
stances, all hazards, q relation
} ship of the most pleasant mature
between the teachers and the pa
irons? Yes, doubly the more q
than that between the former.
In the first we are dealing be-

Starting out to see the world, Ha-

Mills, aged 16, got as far as Dawson
from their home in Whigham before
their tour was abruptly terminated.
Now they are back home after expe-
riences here which neither of the
youthful wanderers relished.
The two boys reached Dawson Fri
day and decided to ride awhile in
stead of walk. So they rented BIZ
cycles from a local man, who when
dark had come and the riders had
not returned, grew uneasy about his
machines and notified Chief of Police
Mack Brown. The officer located
the boys near the city and they were
brought to town and given berths in
the guard house. There, between
sobs of penitence, they confessed that
they had seen enough of the world.
Their athers were notified, and Sat
urday Mr.. Mills, father OF Horace,
came up from Whigham and took the
aerrant lads back with him.
