< Shot Hi* ‘
Lodge, Aug. 2J.—Editor of The
PreM and Standard': Please give
me «|MV.ce in your paper to discus*•
an automobile full of people which
passed by my place today. I have
a dog that runs to the road when he
hears a car coming, and it seems
as if h« likes tq speak to them. A*
this car of,people were passing by
the door my ; dog ran q^t to the road
and they shot at him in front of the
house, which is. right at Jhe road.
I think that there are too many cars
for a man to let a car run Jiim a
fool, and I will reward any man *50
who will’And him out and bring him
to ®e. They are white people:
M. C. FRALIX.
HAVE TOU WEAK LUHfiS?
* Do colds settle on your chest or in your
bronchial tubes? Do coughs bang on, or
arc you subject to'throat troubles?
Such troubles should have immediate
treatment with the strengthening powers
of Scott’s. Emulsion to guard against
consumption which so easily follows.
Scott'sEmntsion contains pure cod liver
oil which peculiarly strengthens the res
piratory tract and improves the quality of
the blood; the glycerine in it soothes and
heals the tender membranes of the throat.
Scott's is prescribed by the best spedal-
ists. You can get it at any drug store.

to shm # ‘ large purchases of machin
es/ in Kew York. They have been
X Honolulu for several years where
Mr. Marvin has worked himself rrp
to assist at home, to make, pleasure
trips, and for other unnecessary
purposes. Such aks^nce on the
part , of the cMl.d Is a moral wrong
committed against its classmates.
Tl\e rgte of progress in a study can
only be such as the whole class can
sustain., and any dead weight due
to such absence will retard the pro
gress of the whole class. The moral
aspect of this question should b*
presented and explained to the child
bv the parent as we - )! as the teacher.
Want of> punctuality ranks next to
absence in its evil effects upon chil
dren. It often seems a hard matter
to get the children off to school
promptly, but ^ bqlieve that care
ful planning and organization of tl*
household duties will in most cases
overcome the difficulty. Many de
sires have been tried by the schools
to overcome this evil, hut verv lit
tle Van be done without the whole-
heartfd co-operation of the home.
The Hacking of the Home.
*The school law says that th**
teacher is in (he place af the par
ent. and if teachers are expected to
incubate habits of obedience, self-
control. reverence, for sacred things
and respect for higher authority’,
they must have the. sympathetic
hacking of the-home. This support
will"not hr given by parents who
believe all sorts of idle tales taqg
school and discuss the teacher-Tn
VKe presence of the pupils. Teach
ers occasionally make mistakes, bat.
such mistakes arC far harder ,to
avoid in the management of thirty
or forty children than in the man
agement of-a? small family. L^yaltv
begets cheerful service, and the
slogan of the town ought to be:
Stand by the School! , .„
Thing* to he Remedied.
When a school Is overcrowded Ht
is rot only a menace .to/the health
of the whole community, but it is
also impossible to give sufficient in
dividual attention to the pupil*. The
only way to avoid-these evils is to
add to the capacity of the building
and to employ more teachers. An
examination of the enrollment of
the lyalterboro ''school shows that
in the primary department the num
ber of teachers is out of all propor
tion to the number of children. The
high school inspector, after visit
ing this school, said that it needed
’more space and more teachers. IHi-:,
til other teachrEgr*^ **
be. necessary’ to divide the first twb
primary grades intp -two sessions
each. It is the opitffoti of the sup
erintendent that "at least two moX
teachers are needed. A visit to/the
primary department will convince
'iinv fair-minded person.
Additions to the High Schqtvl Course
The addition of WU'.tjyry training. |
agriculture, and domosfir science to
the curriculum of the high school I
should be regarded^as. a distinct ad-j
vantage and not twi innovation. All
