PARENT-TEACHERs MEETING.

The regular monthly business meeting
of the Parent Teachers Association was
held Tuesday night of this week at tho
grade school and was very well attend
ed. The program opened with several
singing games by about twenty child
rem of the first, second and third grades
which were very well given by the lit
tie folks, under the direction of Miss
Goodier, gymnasium teacher, and were
greatly enjoyed by the audience.
Miss Mae Walter gave very instruc-
tive and interesting paper on "Signif-
canoe of Play in the Growth and De-
velopment of the Child,p She gave the
five different periods of childhood AMI
explained fully the characteristics of
each period and the importance OF
games and play in the child g life and
the games which are suitable for each
period. She summed up her address by
making a plea for the better under
standing of children and their needs
She added interest to her subject by
giving amusing incidents from children
she has taught as first grade teacher.
Mrs. o. B. Brutsche gave an inter
esting paper on ''The Relation of Child
ren's Recreation to Their School
Work." She especially emphasized the
Importance of the supervised play
ground.
This was followed by paper by Mrs
Catherine R. Curtis on Supervised
Study" She gave many advantages of
supervised study and few disadvau-
tages, one being that the pupil might
depend too much on the parents or
teachers assistance and not do enough
individual work.
On account of the absence of Mr..
Starbuck, his daughter, Miss Yetevc,
read his paper on "The Possibilities Of
=, the New School Building as Social
and Community Center" The writer
dwelt at some length on the value to
be derived from community gatherings

BILL IN BEHALF OF
PHOSPHATE. OIL, GAS

Senators Bannister and Callen have
introduced the following joint memorial
and which has been passed:
To the Honorable Senate and the Hou-
orable House of Representatives of
the United States:
Whereas, under the act of congress
of February 25, 1920, relating to the
mining of coal, phosphate, oil. oil
shale, gas and sodium on the public
domain, it has been ruled by the de-
partment of the interior that upon the
discovery of OIL oil shale, gas, etc., on
any approved applications permitting
prospecting, thereypon all uuapproved
applications for prospecting permits
within any such known. geological
structure shall become void.
And whereas, under such construction
of such act, every rule Of law and prae-
tice and usage of the Great West, and
which have promoted its development,
are abrogated, to wit, the rule and prac-
tice founded upon equity and justice
that first in time is first in right;
And whereas, under such construction
the applicant, who has spent his time
and money in perfecting his application,
the approval of which is almost with
out exception delayed by the federal
government, is thus deprived of his
property and the fruits of his labor,
without cause and wrongfully;
Now, therefore be it resolved by the
senate, the house of representatives
concurring, that we respectfully petit
ton and urge upon the congress of the
United States that it do pass, with all
convenient speed, Senate Bill No. 1925,
introduced by Senator Smoot of Utah,
which bill protects the applicant whose
application, without his fault, is unap-
proved, as well as the applicant who
has been so fortunate as to secure an
approval.
Be it further resolved, that copies
hereof be forwarded to the Honorable
Speaker Of the House of Representa-
tives, the Honorable President of the
Senate of the United States, and to
each representative of Colorado in the
house of representatives and the sen.
ate of the United States.

MARCH.

The cock is Growing,
The stream is flowing,
The small birds twitter,
The lake doth glitter,
The green field sleeps in the sun;
The Oldest and youngest
Are at work with the strongest;
The cattle are grazing,
Their heads never raising;
There are forty feeding like one.
Like an army defeated
The snow hath retreated,
And now doth fare ill
On the top of the bare hill;
The plowboy is neutrality-suspicious. /;
There's joy in the mountains,
There's life in the fountains,
Small clouds are sailing,
Blue sky prevailing;
The rain is over and gone.

one dollar crate was the price
on Strawberries this morning with
the canneries still holding off and
an over supply on the market. 1t
is hardly safe to say that the rock
bottom price has been reached
though the house wife could not
lose by commencing her canning
operations with sugar down to its
present price. Retailers, in some
cases, are paying rs cents a crate
for berries and are over stocked.
With this in view the price NAV
be lower tomorrow.
Lemonade this summer will be
a luxury If the price Of lemons
continues to soar. Another increase
this morning brought the whole
sale prive over 100 per cent to
what it was 10 days ago.
Sweet potatoes are nearing the
end of the season. One local whole
sale house announced this morn
ing that it had received it's last
shipment. The retail price is two
pounds for a quarter.
A few seeding cherries are on
the market at 10 cents a pound.
They are not very good.
In spite of the, attempts to re-
tain the former prices, eggs and
butter are bound to rise. The high
est buying price Of eggs is IS
cents, and the general price is II.
This brings the retail price up to
21 and 22 cents.
The apple season is closing with
good winesaps selling from so
cents a dozen, to cents apiece.
