Contest in Oratory at Mercer
State Graded School.

Principal James Williams and his
assistant, Miss Winifred Stephens,
have undertaken a contest in oratory
and defamation to be given by the
pupils of the Mercer State Graded
school from the intermediate grades
to the grammar grades inclusive. 1t
is probable that it will be given in
the near future.
Mrs. Carl Christensen, instructor
at the Manitowish school, will enter
her pupils in the contest also.
This is the second contest to be
undertaken by these teachers, the
other one having been held last
Spring at the school at which large
crowd assembled to hear the pupils
make their initial appearance in ora
atory The winners last year were
First, Elizabeth Christopherson ;
second, Everett Barker of the Mer-
Ger school; third, Violet Layman, a
9th grade pupil from the Manitowish
school. We are pleased to see this

Cooperation Between Parent
and School


The business of educating chill
dren is joint concern. The parent
has his share of responsibility and
the teacher her share. There is no
parent, however, who is totally un-
interested in what his boy or girl is
doing in school. We suggest to the
parents to visit the school frequently
to see what your pupils are doing.
Right here we might add that it is
the duty Of the teacher to be pleas
ant to the parent who visits her
school, if spirit of cooperation and
helpfulness is to be maintained. If
you feel that the teacher is making
mistakes and you know that she is,
help her to correct them. If she is
doing good work, praise her. 1t will
help her to become a good teacher.
incidentally, parental visits have a
gratifying effect on discipline Why
not come and visit your pupils
teacher now and then? Let's CO.
operate.

Teachers Reading Circle Work.

We wish to call attention again to
the teachers, with regard t. the
renewal of their certificates. No
teacher can take the regular Spring
examination or renew her certificate,
who has not complied with the state
Reading Circle Board, in regard to
her Reading Circle work to be done
for each year that her certificate is
in force. The law provides that
each teacher shall read three pro-
fessional books on the state list and
that such reporting contain from
500 to 1000 words, and is to be
filed in the office of the county
superintendent of schools.

Originates With People.


Everyone who got no farther than
the grades in school learned that the
government is composed Of three
branches judicial, legislative and
executive, and that it is the duty of
the latter to enforce the law.
Experience, however, has taught
US that law enforcement really or
iginates with the people and unless
the will to have any given law en-
forced exists, it becomes mere print
cd words and phrases.
Therefore, if there is complaint
of lax law enforcement, it is the OBJ
legation of the people who complain
to examine their own conduct and
determine whether their own attitude
is right.
Attempts at compelling observing
of any law, even the most trivial
town ordinance, are futile unless
pubic sentiment stands behind those
sworn to enforce all laws Elk.
We never did understand how a
man with name like C. Bascom
could last.
Things easy to read are seldom
hard to forget.
