School Notes

The home.study problem has been successfully and happily solved by our seventh and eighth grade pupils, who on their own iniative voted to come to the building at o'clock each morning and study until school opens at 9. As every one knows who has tried it, student can ac- complish at least twice as much work in a given amount of time, if he works in the morning when fresh and rested. Moreover, this plan, be. sides reducing the time required for outside preparation of lessons, has the added advantage of leaving the pupils their evenings free for the en- joyment of home life with others in the family, for music practice and recreation of various kinds

CHILDREN SHOULD NOT
 SEE ALL MOVIE FILMS

THE HAGUE, Feb. 19.-The little Princess Juliana, only child of Queen Wilhelmina and Prince Consort Henry who may one day succeed to the throne of the Netherlands, has just been permitted to see her first moving picture show. She is II years old and is being reared in the shel- tered fashion characteristic of the home life of Queen Wilhelmina.
 The little princess, however, is being trained in music and other arts as we'll as in the duties of a house. keeper. Her first moving picture show was of the educational type. d south pole picture.
 #
 The above news item should be of interest to American boys and girls who, too often, are surfeited with amusements. The movie undoubtedly has it's place in our educational scheme for the child, but school chil- dren should not be permitted to see every change of films, as many pie lures do not furnish suitable mental pabulum for youthful minds. Is it not possible to strike the happy medium by limiting our children in the number of shows they attend, at the same time choosing pictures that will be instructive and give sane, wholesome ideas of life ia general.

We take this opportunity to thank the Cordova people for their hearty support.
