1t has often occurred to us that chill
dren would get on so much better at
school if parents would only cultivate
the friendship of the teacher more, and
win her confidence. We are quite sure
that il mothers would let the teachers
see that they have an interest in them
and TIE children too, it would stimu-
late the teachers and their pupils. 1t
stands to reason that If the teacher
knows that the parents are co-operat-
ing with her, the efforts which she
puts forth are more likely to result in
greater progress being made by the
children. There is no need whatever
to make great friend of the teacher
bnt it would certainly help matters a
great deal if, say, the teachers were
asked to come and take tea, at def
mite time or spend a certain evening
with the children and parents. Such
little matters are worth thinking about
and we feel convinced that mothers
who try what we have suggested will
be pleased with the results. This was
not written at the suggestion of any
teacher. either.

LIGHT
GUARD
NOTES

Well we had three squads out Mon
day evening to learn the finer points
of being soldier" under the able
tutorage of Capt. Hibbard. The MAJ or-
ity of the boys present, have had this
drill before but they learned that the
old way was very much different then
the new. Capt. Hubbard is. pounding
snap into the movements and he sure
is getting results. A Wisconsin Uni
versity man told the writer at the ar
mory Monday night that ''if the boys
stuck aud worked hard with Hubbard.
the Wauwatosa Light Guard would
have one of the best drilled companies
in the state" We write this just to
show Wauwatosa people what kind of
a man we have at the head of our milf
tary company. No dress uniform has
been ordered yet, but they will be pur-
chased as soon as things look a little
clearer A number of the older men
have been busy during the week taking
an inventory OF the stock, etc, and
when this is finished we will know
exactly where we stand. We have
now about twenty-five members in
good standing but we want at least
twenty-five more. Come out next Mon
dav night and we'll show You why
you should join.

Towns That Grow

In every county and in every state
can be found towns that are continu-
allv forging ahead, while others re-
main practically at a stand still and
accomplish nothing in the way of adj
vancenent. In every case the fault
can be found to rest, not with the town
but with the people themselves. An
exchange has been thinking pretty
seriously along this line and it pre-
sents its conclusions in this way:
THE reason why some towns grow
is because they have men in them with
push and energy who are not afraid TO
spend their time, energy and money in
anything that will boom and benefit
the town. They have conf
dence enough in their town to erect
substantial and modern buildings aud
residences and work for public i'm
provements in the same order.
They organize companies and es-
tablish factories, induce industrial en-
to further tie best interests of the
town. Their work is never considered
finished and the accomplishments of one
thing is only an incentive of another.
"0n the other hand, the town that
does not get ahead will be found TO be
dominated by either set of men who
are perfectly satisfied with their sur
roundings or who are afraid somebody
else will be benefited in the event
something is started; consequently no
effort of any kind is made by this class
for these two reasons.
III some men or set of men endeavor
to start something they are met by OPP
position and dIscourag ement and it is
uphill work all the way and very often
failure.
Every town, however, has a certain
progressive element which hopes for ii
turn of the tide when the town will go
forward by leaps and bounds and oecu-
Ply position of Importance and obtain
numerous advantages which good town
in every sense.
But this stage cannot be accomplish
ed by mere wishes or suppositions. 1t
can only come from han mony in pur-
pose and action and the eternal vigil
lence of it's citizens.
THE town with these things will
I continue To grow and itnnrove Int n, 4.
town without them can be expected to
reuain in a state of lethargy inde finite
ly without affording its residents any
thing but mere existence"
