Richmond. knights of Columbus. Mr..
mond, Va:
Dear Sirs.--The Richmond press
printed the following item of news in
connection with a lecture under your
auspices:
Peter Collins. of Massac husetts. the
man who came to Richmond two years
ago to meet Eugene Debs. in public
debate on the subject of Socialism. .
and who. according to the officers OF
the Knights of Columbus, did not meet
Debs on that occasion because Debs
was afraid to defend Socialism on the
same platform with Collins. IS TO re-
turn here today"
We wish to brand as falsehoods two
statements in that quotation: The one
that Collins came to Richmond to de-
bate with Debs and the other that
Collins did not meet Debs because
Debs was afraid to defend Socialism
on the same platform with Collins.
II Is a serious matter for your Of
fiCers to make misstatements OF this
kind There seems to be nation
wide campaign of vilification OF So
ciatists and misrepresentation of So
knights OF Columbus, While we
could ignore such tactics, we consider
1t best to set the public right.
We most courteously ask that you
correct the above statements In par
ticuiar. The statement that Collins
came to Richmond to debate with Debs
lis a plain faisehood. and no one who
knows Mr.. Debs would believe that
he ever ran away from a debate on
Socialism. which. however. is rep
utation that Mr.. Collins has. achieved.
Mr. Collins has a habit of accepting
challenges but failing to arrange or
permit the arrangement Of a debate.
enclose YOU a clipping from the JAM
uary issue OF the National Rip-Saw
which relates his acce ptance of chal-
ienge Of Mrs Kate Richards O'Hare.
and you will very much oblige the
public of Des Msines by requiring that
Mr. Collins keep his agreemerd. Our
hopeless attempt to get Collins to meet
our representative in Richmond is still
fresh in your mind.
Very respectfully

SOM - With The
baccalaureate sermon at Christian
church, last Sunday morning by
DR.. Cheek, marked the beginning
of the close of the Graded High
School for this year. On Wednes-
day night was the play by the pu-
pils of the different grades. A
special outdoor program was ar
ranged, including a big picnic
dinner on the grounds, for the
pupils of Misses Watson's, Craw-
ford's and McFerron's rooms at
the Fair Grounds. Tonight will
be Commencement proper, the
program for which appears in this
issue. The two graduates are
Miss Ruth Mullins and Mr.. Will
Thompson, and in behalf of these
two splendid young people we
want to say that the Mt. Vernon
High School has never turned
Out two more credrtable graduates
than these two.
The program consisted OF a
pla, and -ongs. by the primary
department, Miss. Georgia Nc
Ferion teacher. the Ma pole

Blanche rawford's room and a
drill and march by the pupils from
Miss Hyde Watson's room. A

torily to every one Is an impossi-
bility, because there are always
some people who expect the other
fellow to do it all with nothing re-
quired of himself 1t is likewise
the case with some parents who
never require their children to
study at home, never give the
teacher any encouragement, but
on the other hand stand ready to
agree with the child on every
whim against the teacher. The
result, the child takes advantage of
the situation, which goes from bad
to worse, the child does not try
and the teacher is handicapped in
helping that child, it makes no
propress and from the standpoint
of that parent the teacher is to
blame for it all, when in reality
the parent is the foundation of all
the trouble. Every parent ought
to have the experiences of a
teacher for while and many of
them would learn a few things
they never thought or heard o..
We are proud Of our Graded
School and with those pupils, with
whom it has been our privilege to
come in contact, and who have
applied themselves, we know that
the 1876 year term has been a
most profitable one.

How Chalk Is Formed.

Deposits of chalk are found on some shores of the sea. A piece of chalk. such as the teacher uses to illustrate something on the blackboard at school. consists of the remains of thousands of tiny creatures that at one time lived In the sea. All of their bodies, excepting the chaIk-called carbonate of lime in scientific language-has disappeared and the chalk that was left was piled up where it fell at the bottom of the ocean, each particle pressing over 1t all until it became almost solid. 1t took thousands of years to make these chalk deposits of the thickness in which they are found. Later on. through changes in the earth's surface. the mountain of chalk was raised untn it stood out of the water and thus be- came accessible to man and school teachers.

rr,tina tho Family.

How many households have a fnm- fly hour-a definite time in the week when all the members of the family gather in perfect serenity for an inter val of genuine communion? Although civilization brings many advantages in its train, 1t has the great fault of tend ing to disrupt family intercourse. Each member has too many individual aetiv- tties. Fathers have their business; sons, their business or education; moth CTS. their domestic duties or social oc- equations; daughters. their business their education or their social life.
 All these things are right and worthy in themselves, but they do not tend to weld the family. If members of fam. fly will make 1t rule to devote them selves for one hour in the week wholly to one another the spirit of family life will be quickened and strengthened. Often the members of family pursue parallel courses that do not intersect. It is mere platitude to point out that great events-travel. marriage, death and the like-must inevitably cause disintegration. But so long as the fam fly is together under one roof the spirit of union and common interests should be fostered. Youths Companion.
