FEDERAL GRAND JURY
 COMPLETES SESSION

The Federal Grand Jury upon completion of their duties handed 1 the following communication to Fed eral Judge c. J. Lomen:
 Nome. Alaska. July 23. 1923. To the Honorable c. J. Lomen, Judge of the District Court for the Territory of Alaska. Second Division. Sir:-The Grand Jury report that l in accordance with the instructions given by your Honor on the 16th day of July. 1928. it has given con- sideration to all matters laid before it by the District Attorney. and all other matters brought to it's atten- ton which were considered proper for investigation.
 We found three (9l true bills and four (H not. true bills.
 The Grand Jury visited the offices of the District Judge and found said office well ordered and efficiently con ducted. We found the District At. torney's office to be in like condition, but would recommend that a fire proof safe be installed therein. for the safe keeping of papers and doc uments. As regards the U. s. Mar shal's office. we recommend that suitable filing cases be furnished, with necessary indexes.
 To; fa,ynH fn ho in good order and we'll conducted. with the exceptions hereinafter stat ed: We found that the fire extin- guishers had not been recharged for something like three years, and we recommend that the same be re- charged at least once every year and kept in proper condition.
 After investigating the injury of prisoner in the Federal Jail we are of the opinion. that in this one case. at least, undue force was used; we believe that more care should be taken in handling an unruly prison CT and that such prisoner should be handled in a more humane manner.
 On one occasion we found a case of gross negligence in the storage Of Intoxicating liquor in the Federal Jail, whereby the prisoners therein had an opportunity and did have access to the same.
 We strongly recommend that all
 
 misdemeanor cases be tried in the local Municipal Court. instead Of the Commissioner Court.
 Respectfully.

 Foreman of the Grand Jury

PARENTS, -CHILDREN-AND THE
SCHOOL

How much should parents help
children with their lessons at home?
How often this question comes up
and with what Il diversity of OPP
iniOn is it discussed The discussion
ranges all the way from the opinion
Of the proud mother who goes over
every word of the morrOw's lesson
with her boy to that of the mother
who says. THE teacehrs are paid
to do the teaching and / have
neither the time nor the inclination
to do their work for them" Pos
sibly to a certain extent both are
right and yet they both fail to
understand fully the learning pro-
cess.
Under no circumstances should
children below the fourth grade be
required to study at home. In an
ideal situation where there is an
abundance of equipment and where
teachers have only one grade to
look after it is likely that supervised
study during the school day would
eliminate the necessity for home
study at all for children in the
grammar grades. But in our schools
such as they are in Mississippi
today it is necessary for children
in the grades to do some work at
home IN the high school where,
because of longer recitations, a large
part of the pupils day is taken
up with recitatiOns it becomes more
necessary for work to be done out
of school hours.
Neither a teacher nor the chi1d's
parents should, under any circum-
stances. do the child's work for
him. This is where so many pa
rents make very serious mistake.
Teaching does not consist in doing
work for child, but in directing
him to the solution of his own
problems. Parents will do their
children a much greater service by
simply insisting that they devote
the necessary time and effort to
their lessons than they will by going
to the extreme of working problems
or writing compositions for them.
Such help not only destroys the
child's self reliance and individuai-
ty but teaches him to be dishonest
in that he is led to hand in lessons
which do not represent his own
effort.
When you hear scandal let it go
in one ear and out the other without
stopping.
