2. Help the truant officer en-

cipline. Parents should weigh
both sides Of any difficulty that
may arise between pupil and
teacher and refrain from any
criticism Of the teacher in the
presence Of the pupil.
6. Exercise of parental auth
ority in the home will be a most
wholesome training for the school
room. II children are not taught
TO respect law and authority in
the home, they will respect Meth
er the authority Of the school
room nor the laws Of their coun-
try.
Z. Give the teachers some
thing to push against and let that
something be a faithful cooper
alton upon the part Of parents in
compelling their children to study
their lessons.
/ s. Encourage your children to
be systematic to form habits of
study.
Shield them from dissipation,
which disQualify them for their
school work.
We have il upon reliable auth
orty that the propensity of some
parents to let their children at.
tend cheap shows is most hurtfuI
to the doing of their best work

Parents sometimes complain al

the fault Of the teacher.
