Community Schools Held In Various
Districts Proving Very
Successful. |

Superintendent Kennedy is ar0uS-
ing much interest in the several dis
tricts in the county by the commun
ity school meetings which are being
held at various places. The object
of these meetings is to increase the
efficiency of each school and to bet
ter the community by bringing the
two into active cooperation. The
nature Of these meetings depends
upon tho local condition OF the
schools. One teacher finds that she
can best serve the purpose by hold
ing parents meeting and thereby
solve the problems that confront her.
Another teacher cnlistS the same CO.
operation of his patrons by organic
ing a literary society. Another teach
or has an occasional entertainment t"
accomplish the same end; another
organizes sewing circles. The ath-
lctic club, tho agricultural club and
the school fair arc other means to
the same end. The nature Of the
meeting depends upon the conditions
pccular to the school and teachers
certainly have Il fine opportunity to
exercise their ingenuity to the en1
that they may solve the problems OF
their schools and at the same time

THE QUICK AND THE DEAD

1t was an old fashioned hab-
It of readers to turn first of all
to the death notices on pick
ing up a newspaper.
Nowadays people turn more
often to the advertisements OF
the live merchants.
They are interested in the
quick, and tn" quickest men
in town are the merchants
who advertise.
They are the business pro-
gressiveS. men with a message
TO deliver.
They back Up words with
deeds. They make good.
1t is a safe axiom that 1t Is
always safest to trade with tho
man who advertisGs.
He as promise to live mp
to and he knows his future
depends o.. his ability to make
good.
Read the advertisements in
The West Virglnlan and pat
ronizc the merchants who adj
vcrtise. You will find that it
pays.

made their way into one Of the rear

Apparently suffering from great en-

came that their lives were in dan

When they finally left the door Of
the consulate, the detectives on duty
apparently did not recognize them
and they walked deliberately
through the street to the pier where
thcy presented Il card from Canada
to the officer in command Of the
launch. The American naval Off
Ger hurried them or board the
launch, which steamed quickly
across the harbor to the wheeling"
and put them on board. The de-

about the street were still watching
