sociation At the Union
School

Rev. T. Ross Paden of the Presby-
terian church spoke to the members
Of the Union Parent Teachers asso-
citation in the kindergarten room OF
the Union school, last evening. He
gave an interesting talk on Citizen
ship" He said that in order to be good
citizens one must he sound in morals
and religion, and must be able TO mas
ter his own business. A person must
feel that he is responsible for others.
Anyone who attends to his own bust
ne alone. without having any interest
in that of others is not good citizen
The young people must be taught re-
sponsibility, and be taught to do their
share of the work which comes up at
all times.
Miss Abbie Peters, school nurse,
spoke to the parents and teachers on
the necessity of caring for the child's
care is given to a child's teeth, throat,
nose and eyes, that W. hen they reached
manhood and womanhood they will
not have the troubles with these or
gans as they would If the proper care
is not given. 1t is UP to the parents to
take care of the child, and it up to
the teacher to assist the parent in en-
couraging cleanliness and healthfufness
In the child.

WOULD ENFORCE DANCE LAWS
Searehiisht Club at Rochester Takes
.HH Up the Subject

Up IHc SuOjcCC
Rochester, Mimi, December 8.-The
Searchight Citizens club Of South
east Rochester, started a war against
the alleged nonenforcement Of the
laws governing public dances, at their
meeting held at the home of Mrs.
v. Reynolds last evening.
The laws controlling public dances
were read and discussed. The mem
bers of the club are anxious to COS
operate with officials in the matter
OF enforcing the statutes.
1t was suggested that mothers OF
young people attending the dance
halls, go with their daughter and act
as chaperons. This measure would
prevent girls and young women from
staying out late at night and would
aid in enforcement of proper conduct
on the part of the young people who
attend public dances.
A number of members voiced their
opinion that the law prohibiting those
under eighteen years OF age from at
tending public dances. was not being
complied with. Other phases OF the
dance question were discussed. iae
citizenship club, win attempt to CO.
operate with mothers and with young
people themselves, in the hope OF cor
'reckzng dance evils IN ROehester.
