Some weeks ago we expressed a
preference for Belgian refugees to

vantages, sending what food and
clothing We can. They can find no
employment and are white, peace

COOPERATION OF HOME AND
SCHOOL.

IT should be matter Of pride and
congratulatiou to the people Of Lees
burg and vicinity to observe the
success with which the local school
has been conducted during the past
year. Under manifest handicaps
the school management has accom-
plished a years work of unusual
merit and worth.
But has the school year been as
successful as it would have been with
a closer and more sympathetic CO.
operation between the homes Of the
community and the school? That
is the question that the patrons of
the school should consider and
which they should endeavor to ans

greatest need Of the school has been

matters relative to the school aside,

su1h a way as to irritate one? Is
that corporation? That seems to
be what some parents think is co.

ineffective efforts at cooperation
will accomplish nothing, because
they miss entirely the real spirit Of
mutual and reciprocal laboring to-

Each father and each mother
should know as much as possible
about the work that is being done
by the children they send to school.
Isn't it worth little time to know
this? Isn't it worth something in
the formation of your child's
character to know what he or she
is doing at school? Then how can
one know without nanifesting live
and genuine interest in the prepara-
ton of the daily recitations and in
observing ON the reports sent out
by the school what the teachers
think Of the menner in which your
children are doing their work?

father or mother, that you are in

The Journal that the people Of Lees
burg enter into the school year next
fall in new spirit, in the spirit Of
trying to understand the work Of
the school and OF trying to see that
each student does at home the work
assigned by the teachers for study
at home, That is no easy task for
the average busy father or mother,

every conscientious parent. Let's try
