Rev, 11.6H. Turnbull addressed the
raeeting on the subject of the relation-
ship and co-operation'possible between
parents and teachers in order to iron
out their problems together. The
home, the school and the church, he
said, are theIhree greatest institutions
in the world today and the things
most remembe-red- are the atmosphere
created by and the • ideals of the
teacher. Hence the most important
factor is the teacher at school and
church and the parent in the home.
Children, said -the speaker, soon see
through deceit...and hypocrisy, so par-
'ents must develop a general Christian
truthful in all dealings; remain young
with their children, and never be too
busy to help solve a child's problem.
The banquet for the graduating class
will be given again this year. A
blanket and pillovv, have been pur-
ehaseds for the school couch.
