lessons varies with different pupils
and on different days. 1t is, therefore
difficult to lay down absolute rules 70,
home study; but in general, it may be
said that unless a pupil is doing con.
| siderable systematic study outside OF
school every day, it is certain that he
is not getting all of his school WORK
well done, and the parents should com
municate at once with the superintend-
ent or the principal, so that failure
may be avoided.
1t is usually we'll understood by
parents that social distractions, espe-
Tally on school day evenings, are
nearly always fatal to successful
school work. Since the school studies
are sufficient to occupy all the time Of
the pupils, except such as is taken for
recreation or needed service in the
home, any special outside duties hand
leap the pupils in their lesson prepare
ton.
1t is only natural for pupils to be in,
terested in many things outside of
the schoolroom. Some of these inter
ests can be turned to good account by
the skillful teacher and the wise par.
ent. In other cases these outside in
terests invade the schoolroom to such
an extent as to demoralize the entire
school A number of plays, in which
pupils take part, a succession of par
ties, series of events which take Il
large proportion of the pupils away
from their evening studies complete
ly mar the otherwise successful work
of the year. In a community such as
ours, nearly every home affords an ex-
cellent environment for social recrea-
ton as well as for evening study; in
consequence, there should not be re-
quired the exacting duties of outside
entertainments during school day ey-
enings.
1t is, therefore, urged upon parents
that they guard with jealous care the

Securing Parental Cooperation.

The lack of cooperation between the
home and the school is looked upon by
educators as one Of the factors which
interferes seriously with school eff
cheney and progress
Since the establishment of free pub
lie schools parents seem to give them
selves not much concern about the ed
ucation Of their children. Almost any
thing is sufficient to take the child
IRON his school duties. John or SUI
sic can be called away from school or
detained at home to go errands, to
pour tea or serve refreshments a.

gwen by one of mothers friends, to go

olous thing, without any detriment ta
The school work
The school work, presumably, is fit
ting for life No excuse for neglectins
it should be offered that would not be
offered to a business man who had em-
ployed your boy or girl to work in his
store.
A most timely request for co-opera-
ton by Board of Education in 4
distant city is in line with the efforts
+ the Parent-Teacher association, as
follows:
In general, it may be said that regu-
lar attendance and punctuality are
absolutely essential to success in any
system of schools Americas is par
ticularly fortunate in having few
homes in which children are detained
from school for any causes, except
those most necessary.
The board is providing sanitary
buildings, ventilated. lighted and heat

methods, and has procured the most
efficient teachers. The conditions are
therefore such as are conducive to
best work in school.

Will CONTEST
IN EXAMINATION
FOR VACANCY
EXISTING At NAVAL ACADEMY
Leonard Parker an ASpiraDt
for the Honor

Mr.. Leonard Parker, Jr., of Ameri-
Gus, who will graduate next week from
the Georgia Military Academy, at
College Park, bearing off the honor Of
valedictorian of his class, will try for
appointment to the vacancy now eX-
listing in the United States Naval
Academy, and to be filled by appoint
ment from the Third congressional dis j.
trict at an early date.
Representative Charles R. Crisp
will make the appointment, and the
many friends Of Mr. Parker will trust
that he may be successful in being
awarded this coveted honor.
The fact that the examining board
meets on June 9Th, short time only
after the closing exercises of the Geor-
gia Military Academy will afford Mr.
Parker but little time for preparation,
but as he is well up in his studies,
this fact will not prove a serious hand
leap, his friends hope The board of
examiners will hold their session in
IThomasville.
1t has been some time since the
Third district has had a representative
at Annapolis, and Mr.. Parkers friends
hope that he may be the next one of
several Americas young men to serve
with credit in the navy.

PAYING TUITION
MAY Be BURDEN
High School Advantages for
Country Children More Elk
pensive Than in Past.

Some of the country school dis
tricts, particularly those near the
cities, may find the expense imposed
under the new law compelling pay
ment of tuition of high school pupils
sent to other districts something of
burden. At the same time the increase
in attendance that is likely to result
may in some cases tax, the capacity
OF the high schools
Rock Island high school already
has good many tuition pupils, particu-
.arly from South Rock Island The
annual tuition charged is $50. Under
the law the districts will have to pay
their share of the per capita cost OF
running the high school, which will be
approximately, at the present time, SIS
more than the tuition charged the in
dividual pupil.
There are nearly a score attending
the local high school from one South
Rock Island district, No. AZ This
means an added expense of about 5000
to the district. But under the new
law the number attending high school
is Likely to be double that number.
The same is true, though TO a lesser
extent, in other nearby districts.
Not only those who graduate next
spring from the district schools and
those now attending high schools will
be benefited, bur all children OF
school age who may have graduated
from a grammar school at any time
or have otherwise qualified for en-
trance may take advantage Of the
terms of the act and resume studies
with tuition paid by the district.

One of the most conspicuous errors
in the modern diet is complicated
dishes and too many things served at
the same meal.
Many articles of natural food contain
from two to six different chemical ele-
ments. A properly selected meal
therefore might be composed of three
or four things and contain all the ele-
ments of nourishment the body would
require.
The kitchen has been the domain Of
woman for many thousand years;
what ambition she possessed had no
other way of manifesting itself except
to excel in the preparation of food.
This has led her into complications
and has fixed the standard of a good
meal by the number of things COM
posing it, The modern chef is merely
the lineal descendant of our grand
mothers, who has inherited the dispo-
sition TO fix up and mix up food into
endless combinations, utterly regard

Two of the most serious errors OF
the modern diet are inharmonious com
