Who has any Interest in our nubile schools? 'J ho parents' Very few Most parents content themselves with dress ing their children as pret ily as possi ble, seeing that they aro clean before going to school, and then lot tho teacher do tho rest. Thoy never visit thoir children's classes and do not know tho character or ability of tho teacher Most parents do not know tho teacher of their children even by sight. Perhaps tho ministers aso interested in tho schools, but wo know of none. The board of education, beyond overseeing tho business department, are ignorant of what Is going on in tho classroom Who, then, is there to interest himself In school matters? Tho editor of Tut: Chief would gladly appreciate any information leading in tills direction. Hut something ought to bo douo to compel tho teachers of our children to use puto language: It is ivally appall ing to think that children are schooled in tho uso of slung. Only recently we were imformed by mothunof chldren in school that tho teacher very Im pressively stated to tho class that "e.icli should chew his own beefsteak." Can one imagine more vulgar s aug? Wo would not be .surprised to find such language in tho city slums, but when tho person who is paid to bo an example and inoulcate pure thoughts into tho minds of tho young, gives them instead tho language of tho vul gar, wo think sonio vigorous measures shoud bo adopted. Last year we hoard'such things as "darn it," "that's a dinger" and matij- equally as bad, from tho pupils and were informed that tho phmses wore classic bocauso thoir teacher used them. Tho poison employed in tho sacred duty of educating tho young should givo nothing but tho purest thoughts, tho highest ideals and tho nost refined lauguago. Any one who is incapable of tilling this position should be turned out of tho school room and tie permitted to associate with tho usors of slang, the butchors of lauguago, and not poison tho mind of the growing child with such inelegant language as 'chew your own beefsteak."
