teacher in the home, acquainting the
parents with school work and giving
both teacher and parent better I'M
derstanding of the work. Prof. Ford
brought before the body the ways and
means Of the association beneftting
the school.
We are fortunate in having a Won
derful faculty in both the high and
grammar schools and an unusually
good supervisor and principal, which
makes our school above the average
in many ways.
The meeting was adjourned to meet
Monday, December II.
Refreshments were served and
