The Columbus dispatch. (Columbus, Miss.) 19??-1922, 1922-03-01

no time to 20 to school, no money 10
ever call our own, no way to 90 to
church and Sunday school without
walking, and never get to leave the
little community in which we live.
We want a little fun and pleasure
along with our work in life, il you
please. How are you going to keep
'em down on the farm? Here's the
way: First, teach your children to
love, honor and obey their parents;
then, love and trust them, and try to
make life pleasant for them. See that
they get good education, for a real
farmer needs as much education as
lawyer does. Go with them to
places Of amusement and carry them
among nice respectable people, to
church and to Sunday school. Don't
make them miss a picnic just to get
through hoeing cotton one day sooner
than your neighbor. A child can
hardly bear to stay in n field on hot
day in June and see others passing
with their fishing rods and lunch.
Give them day Off and they will
work enough harder to make up for
it. Give them a pig, calf, chickens, or
garden they can make off of it,
show and encourage them and they
will soon find that the farm is the
grandest place on earth Let us
"work while we work" play while we
play, for that is the way to be happy
and gay.
The Caledonia High School is still
along nicely, under. the
able management of Professor j. r. |
Vaughn and we are very sorry to re-
port that it is doubtful as to whether |
or not the full eight months term will
be taught out. We fear that the
school system, especially the long /
terms, has exhausted according to
financial affairs. OF course we feel
that the efficient trustees and sup
have done their bit to-
ward betterment of the schools, so
he rest falls upon the people of the
community so patrons and concerns
work together and do your best to
engthen our term.
The teachers are looking '1ong
aced" for fear of their salary being
owered, so why not arouse a COM I
nunity interest, for in the school
DOM is where you first learn to be
part of your community, little by
title you learn how to get along in
he world around you. What it has to
i've you, and what you can give it.
