FORM new PIT.
ASSOCIATION AT
CONY HIGH SCHOOL

The Cony High Parent-Teacher
Association became a fact on We'd
nesday afternoon when a group of
teachers and parents, gathering in
room q at the school, voted to form
such an organization and a nominal
ing committee was elected. This
committee will report at the next
meeting which will be held Friday,
December at 7.30 o'clock at the
High School building!~
The committee consists of Mrs. H.
T. E1more, chairman, Miss Lottie
harrington, Superintendent of
Schools Fred w. Burrill and Mrs. M.
0. Dean. Mrs. John E. Nelson was
elected temporary chairman and
Mrs. George w. Leadbetter temper
airy secretary.
The meeting came at the close of
the regular school session and was
held on Wednesday as that was OBJ
served as Parents Day and 1t was
felt that particularly large gather
ing would result. Mrs. Joseph d.
Small of Winthrop, president Of the
State Parent-Teacher Association
was the speaker of the afternoon
and her address was one of absorb
ing interest to both parents and
teachers, more especially as she has
and does now fill both roles.
In opening she declared that II
the Cony Parent-Teacher Association
then being formed should at that
time vote to join the State organi-
zation, 1t would be the first purely
high school association so affiliated
She told the assemblage that the
time to start training the child is
within two weeks of its birth and
that too much dependence upon
grandparents and "in-law's" advice
is a bad thing. She explained that
the proper home training would
show fits results especially at about
the high school age. Mrs. Small de-
clared the job of being a parent to
be one of the biggest things In the
world and gave, a few pointers on
things which would help them to
increase, their influence for good
with their children.
Among these were supervision OF
home study, supervision of social life
by allowing the child to have Its
friends visit at the house where they
would be under the watchful eye of
the mother, a promotion of better
school spirit, the adjustment of the
telephone evil as she called the con-
slant call put through by the stu
dents after school hours and which
disrupt the evening study hour, and
a censorship of clothing worn by the
children.
The speaker referring particularly
to the Parent Teacher Association
pointed out the benefit to acrue
through the meeting of the parents
and the teachers and their work to-
gether. She stressed that the par
ents of all children should be urged
to join, no matter what their station
in life and especially urged that the
fathers should take an active part,
stating that father should be more
than a Geological necessity and q
financial convenience"

She and those on board her seemed
always surrounded with good luck.
She captured five ships, two of which
were frigates.
IN 1929 she was ordered dis
mantled, bat her good luck was still
with her. A young Harvard student
saver her by writing "Old Ironsides",
and this added to her glory.
Read "Old Ironsides" If you can
without feeling thrill of patriotism
Is there a boy of today who does not
want to see that deck Where knelt
the yanquished foe?
"And should not the boys Of the
future be given a chance to see that
deck? Would not the very sight of
it make them better boys, better
men,. and better patriots?
Let us not give her ito the god of
storms, but preserve her for the
boys and girls of the future.

The Pirates are leading the New

National League and the Champion
Senator's ran up their lead to Az
games when Tuesday they over
whelmed the young Philadelphia
Athletics, to 3, in the first game
of the series that may decide the
pennant. 1t is not safe to hazard
a guess on the form in one game,
but there was enough superiority
shown by the Senators Tuesday to
make it safe to plunge a prediction
that they are about 'in" with the
pennant.
The Athletics looked so bad-not
so much because they could not hit
that old master, Walter Johnson
but because they were uncertain in
the field; they could not handle the
ball in a tight place and they did
not know what to do with it when
they did handle it.
Their work had all the symptoms
Of young team that has gone to
pieces and their defense had none of
that sparkling execution that is so
characteristic of Buck Harris
veterans.
There are seven more games to be
played between the two contenders
and the Senators look strong enough
to do better than break even, count
ing Tuesdays game.
Stanley Covelesllie, the former
Cleveland veteran, was expected to
pitch for Washington today and
Connie Mack was expected to call
upon Sam Gray.
