TOWNSHEND.
Little Red School House News.

The meeting Saturday evening by
the Farmers union in the little red
school house probably was the most
successful in its history. The school
house was filled to its capacity, and it
was necessary to bring in seats to ac-
commodate them all. There were 81
present. There were guests from
Townshend, Newfane, Dover and
Wardsboro. After a short business
meeting, in which five new members
were voted In and six new names were
proposed for membership, it was voted
to serve the second annual game sup
per on the eYeningzo Dec.A4-A. com
f1nittee of three was appointed on arr
engagements. The program of the even
ing was pleasantly introduced by a
reading by Mrs. John Northup. Her
pleasing manner always delights her
audience and she was at her best on
this occasion.
Prof. George K. Cherrie was then
introduced and for an hour and half
he kept his audience intensely interest
ed in following him in his description
4 of the Roosevelt party from the time
/ it left New York city, crossing the
! equator up into the mountains of Bra
I
distance of over 500 miles, where
white man had never travelled before.
His description of the hardships en-
dured, the privation and almost starva-
ton were thrilling in the extreme and
the picture drama of the condition of
the party when it reached civilization
was very amusing.
Mr.. Northup entertained the audi
ence with a few funny stories and A
II. Farnum of Newfane sang three Sc
lections, all of which were greatly en-
joyed Miss Carrie Webster of South
Wardsboro played his accompaniment
A vote of thanks was given Mr.. Cher
RE and the others who took part il
the entertainment, and the meeting
adjourned. Coffee and cake were
served. All greatly enjoyed the even
ing.
The next regular meeting will b,
held Nov. 20, at which time there viii
be business meeting and short
program.

To Install Savings Bank.

The business and English course is also conducted with the idea of giv- ing the pupils problems in actual life to work out instead of working on fictitious transactions. To further carry out this idea in the bookkeep- ing department, Principal French will next year install d savings bank in the department, so that the girls and boys may have real money to handle instead of stage money. It is his con tention that the boys and girls will get more benefit out of figuring up the grocery account than in entering in the books a transaction covering the purchase of carloads of flour. The offices for the bank will be built by the boys in the woodworking de- partment.
 The boys and girls are separated in the class rooms. Different mental processes are recognized in the two sexes and the subjects are presented in different manner to each. Then, too. the faculty recognizes that at the ge of the boys and girls in the gram mar school, the presence of the op- posite sex nas a distracting influence on the mental processes of the stu dents. Opportunities for social gath erings are, however, provided out side of the class sessions so that the children may not be deprived of the real benefits of social intercourse.
 One of the special features of the grammar school is a class of students selected for their brightness who are given an opportunity of finishing the two year course in one. This is an illustration of the effort to make the school fit conditions and not to force every pupil to fit particular mold.
 Even physical exercise is made more pleasant in the grammar school by a gymnasium in which the boys and girls meet once a week. Every boy gets chance to take part in the athletic contests, so that the athletic equipment benefits more than d se- lccted few whose physiques arc al- ready well developed.

 At 10 o'clock Monday morning the
 girls in the drawing class in the Pre- vocational school were clipping in- terior scenes from the model homes shown in the magazines and arrang-
 ing them according to definite plans
 of efficiency and the dictates of art.
 A suite of model living rooms is
 maintained in the school so that the
 girls may see for themselves just
 what is necessary in d home, how in-
 expensive furnishings can be pro-
 vided. how the decorations should be
 arranged for the best effect. and how the rooms should be kept. The teach
 CTS in the school use the apartment
 for rest rooms when the classes are
 not in session there.
 The art is practical, even to plan
 ming the colors in a dress so that they will match the hair and the compleX- ion of the individual girl. The arith-
 lnetic for the girls does not consist of problems in determining the area
 covered by the pyramids but rather how much she will have to spend for tape for the dresses to be made dur ing the week.
