MR.. PEELE SPEAKS TO
PARENTS AND TEACHERS
AT MARCH MEETING

The regular March meeting OF the
Parent-T Teacher association was held
in the high school building yesterday
afternoon at four o'clock. Due to the
threatening weather and the preva-
ence of influenza the attending of
parents, especially was not so large as
at the previous meeting of the body.
The following program was carried
out: Instrumental duet by Misses
Mary White and Annie Wilson, a
reading on St. Patrick by Miss Willie
McLane, and vocal solo, Mother
Machree, by Miss Victoria Howie, the
selection being played by Miss Mary
Milford.
Following this Mrs. Amos B.
Morse, the president of the associa-
tion introduced in happy manner
the speaker of the afternoon, the
Rev. Mr.. Peele, pastor of the Metho-
dist church. Mr.. Peele made a timely
address of invaluable help to the par
ent who has the best interest of the
child at heart and drew striking
parallels from the old Testament in
corroboration of his psychology. The
speaker referred to the fact that
parents often times see only their
deal in their children and are neces-
arily partisan sufficiently to be un-
able to see the child as others see
him. He also stated in speaking of the
modern school teacher that she was
making a greater sacrifice than the
modern minister of the gospel. Mr..
Peele's address was in no wise radical
or extreme, but he simply stated old
truths in new dress and his audience
was delighted with his remarks.
A discussion of the double session
day for next session was then entered
into and light was thrown on the
double session method by the re-
marks made by Supt. J. D. Fulp.
Mrs. Daisy Nickles read a corrected
list of the donors to the playground
fund. 1t was suggested by the presi-
dent that the association plan for the
purchase of new piano for the
chool for next session, which was
much sweeter music to the ears of all
han had been the tone emitted by
he present instrumnt-once a piano
lin an earlier stage of the program.
Major Fulp, president of the Coun-
~ Teachers Association, gave a cor
dial invitation to the members of the
! local association to attend the next
meeting of the county teachers at the
court house Saturday, April 8.
The meeting then adjourned to as
semble the third Tuesday afternoon
lin April at four o'clock in the high
school building.

PRESIDENT IS NOT READY
TO PICK SUMMER HOME

Although President Wilson has been
offered estates in every part of the
country for use as summer White
House" this year. and might take his
pick Of the finest country or seaside
homes in America. he has made no
choice nor docs he expect to select a
summer resting place within the next
two months.
In fact. the belief of those IL touch
with the White House is that the
President will remain in Washington
for the entire sumrci, unless tie
weather becomes unSe.ss onably hot or
unless the warm weather aggravates
his weakened physical condition. Or.
Grayson has pronounced his patient

any definite statement the belief is
that the physician thinks the Presi-
dent would be as we'll OF IN wash

With the coming of warmer weather
President Wilson probably will re-
sumo his week end trips down the
Potomac and to lower Chesapeake
bay. such as he was accustomed to
make in former years. He has always
found the quiet Of Two nights and the
greater part of two days very rest
full, and prefers such an outing to one
in strange surroundings, where his
presence would attract the curious.

 My Own Recipes
 In selecting a pot roast, choose one with as little bone as possible. There is a cut. "off the sirloin," my butcher expresses it. that has no bone and is cheap. This makes a delicious pot roast and there is enough fat on the piece to give a rich gravy.

TO FADE PATCHES

Children's dresses always need patching. That the patches may be of the same shade as d wash dress when needed, good suggestion is to sew a small piece of the goods on the wrong side where it will not be in the way. In washing. the piece will fade like the dress, and be ready for use as patch with best results.
