SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT
o ??
The School Improvement Association
met at the Burroughs High
School on last Friday afternoon at
4 o'clock, Mrs. Anderson presiding.
The opening selection was an instrumental
solo rendered by Miss
Gene Wood Norton. Col. R. B. Scarborough
then addressed the Association
and tried in a very forceful Planner
to describe an ideal teacher, a
teacher that studied the child, and
hoped for its success, not only during
its school life, but in after years.
Colonel Scarborough did not forget
to mention the parents and their
duties as the child should be trained
in the home and be ideal pupils.
After the address it seemed that
the Association as a whole, resolved
to try to do better?to make 4 better
teachers and the parents to co-operate
more fully with the teachers.
n ? * ' "
ivuss naran vroraon tnen rendered
an instrumental solo. It was then |
voted on whether or not the Association
should pay dues, and bv a rising
vote it was decided to pay 50 cents a
year.
It is the aim of the Association as
?oon as it is possible, to have a good
library in the Burroughs High School.
Two dollars reward had been offered
to the grade who made the highest
average in attendance. The secoond
grade, Miss Gentry, teacher, and
the tenth grade.
The next meeting will be on the
fith of January. Fefreshments will be
served. The meeting then adjourned.

The prosperity of any people deends
ultimately, not on how much is
lade, but on how it is used. How
uich of this world's goods can he acumulated
depends primarily, not on
ow much can he produced, but on"how
mch can be saved. The' amount that
an be saved by any family or any
tate, or nation depends primarily,
ot pn the men of that family, state
r nation, but upon the woman. The
roman of the family spends 90 per

he who determines what shall be

low that these women and girls
