Chandler, Jr., announces for next

fered. The new school will thus be
placed in advance practice in this
field Special bulletins for the com
mercial department and the summer
school are now ready for distribution.
Industrial arts and music super
vision are already offered. either for
specialization in these two branches,

The pressing need for teachers in the
required work of the elementary

How Madge's Father Solved the
Problem.

My first emotion upon hearing MY
mother-ir-law's calm proposal to
turn my father out of his room in
order to make room for her daugll-
ter and son-:n-law was one Of fierce
resentment. But sober second
thought changed the current of my
anger toward myself.
If I had only possessed the initia-
tive a few hours before to press
upon my father an invitation to &C
company Lillian, Marion and myself
upon our outing the whole problem
of providing for my mother-in-law's
guests would have been solved with
out anyore's sensibilities being
bruised. Now, when | asked him to
accompany US he could not but have
the suspicion that he had been asked
only because his room was needed at
the house.
And the ironic Jest Of the whole
situation lay in the fact that | knew
my father would have given great
deal to make one of our party in the
excursion to. the east end of Long
Island which Lillian and ] had
planned.
II should very much enjoy having
my father accompany me on this
"trip | said stiffly, "but | cannot per-
NIT his being asked to go away from
his home simply as matter OF con-
venience" ...
