School Notes
One of our great educators, P. P.
5laxton, former u. S. Commissioner
# Education, says, "In the home must
,e learned the fundamental virtues of
obedience, industry, honesty, truthful
less, cleanliness, self-respect and re-
,ard for, the rights of others. Many
kills also can be learned much bet
er in the home than in the school,
nd nowhere else can the affection and
be will be so well established" Upon
areful reflection of these words, our
minds and hearts have been awaken
to keen sensibility. We wonder If
IL our parents take the time to IN
estigate seriously if they are incu-
ating habits developing the virtues
bOYe named or are we as careless q,
ersOns leaving other agents to per-
lrm the tasks that God has intrust5d
} our care, No school, no teacher or
reacher can do the work the home
lust do. We may, however, say, "Oh, (;
es, am doing my part to make my +
hildren better" How many times do
q give concrete illustrations urging 3
lr children to regard the rights Of !,
hers? You must remember that at :
Il times the school is only supple =
ental to the home. Children have =
ghts and parents must respect them. :
hildren should be encouraged nightly :,
? the presence of their parents per- u
)nality and inspiring cOuntenance. - =
In Dagsboro we trust that every \
1me is cooperative with the school. n
e believe If you are not you are l.
ther ignorant or misinformed. If e,
ly parent feels that the school can o.
, more than to do the supplemental b
ork to the home, the school authors ii
es invite careful inspection and ma IL
ire deliberation. On the other hand W
10 officials do suggest that if you n
went the desire or intention to ac-. W
laint yourselves intimately with
,nditions, then be very careful what
~ say at random.
Dagsboro school and school proper in
are yours. For years to come you Il
i'll point to the buildings on the hill OF
yours. Are you going to do your m
.rt to help the school or are you go Ia
g to be destructionists? It is up to to
IL. Remember one great way Of help CT
g your school is to rigidIy cooper OF
e in the home, both in spirit and in la
tion, by inculating habits Of Yirtu- to
is living. OF
The school officials do not however OF
can to say that DagsbOro has not a pl
,od school spirit. There is splendid Is
irit manifested. Yet we know, too OC
sll that there are people who don't m
