teachers" was discussed. This being
decided affirmatively, the organization
was affected with Mrs. Wheeler as presi
dent. The next meeting will be on
March 18, when the subject, "How best
to cultivate truth in children," will be
led by Mrs. I. N. Baker.
The mothers of the Bancroft and
Ninth and Z street schools have also
organized.
In order to call together the patrons
of the schools printed circulars are sent
out addressed to mothers and explain
ing the cause of the meeting as follows:
During the last few yeare alarge num
ber of papers and talks have been given
in the various Lincoln clubs, which are
of special interest to mothers. Feeling
that these should reach a larger audience
than they have yet found the child study
department of the Woman's club has
undertaken to arrange f jr the presenta
tion of some of these subjects at the
various school buildings.
The object of holding these meetings
at the school buildings is two-fold:
1. It is hoped that by having these
subjects discussed in all parta of the
town man jiothers may be able to hear
them who could not attend the regular
club meetings.
2, It is the best thought of modern
educators that good results in educa
tion can ba obtained only through the
cooperation of parent and teacher.
Parents must understand fully the
policy which the teacher is following in
the developing of the child. Teachers
should know what is the ideal of the
home. If we are to have the best re
sults, there must be a mutual acquaint
ance and understanding, a working to
gether for the good ol the child. It
should be deMnitely determined just
where home control ends and where
school control begins; how far teachers
should be held responsible for the mor
als of Bchool children, and how much
responsibility rests with the parents.
It is the intention of the committee in
charge to give abundant opportunity for
general discussion at each meeting, and
it is hoped that the meetings will prave
of great practical value to both teachers
and mothers.
The Linaoln Woman's club held its
regular meeting Monday afternoon. In
the absence of the president, the vice
president, Miss Elliott, presided.
Mrs. Richardson spoke in regard to
the anti-cigarette movement, and moved
that a petition be Bent to Congress ask
ing for a bill providing that cigarettes
imported in original packages become
subject to the law of the state. The
next meeting will be in charge of the de
partment of physical culture and the
leader, Miss Barr, has invited the club
to meet at the University gymnasium.
It was announced that Mr. Tibbies
would lecture on "Economic Terms," at
the Lincoln Normal on Friday evening,
and the club was asked to attend.
The department of history ,Miss Brack
ett leader, gave the program. The
opening number was a charming musi
cal selection by the Ideal Mandolin club
who also gave a medley of airs including
the Star Spangled Banner, Yankee Doo
dle and other familiar tunes. Misa Jes
sie LansiDg accompanied by Mrs. P. V.
M. Raymond sang Hammers "Mignon"
sweetly. Mrs. W. C. Henry read a paper
on the "Causes of the Puritan Migra
tion."1 A sketch of the lift and influence
of Anne Hutchinson was then given by
A tb. S. E. Upton . A violin solo, Fesca's
"Spring Song" by Miss Ina Ensign was
much enjoyed.
The program closed with a paper by
Dr. Inez Philbrick on the "Settlers of.
the Connecticut Colony." The treasurer
reported the membership 569.
The program for tne Friday evening
session of the Plattsmouth Woman's
club, was furnished by the Child Study
department of the Woman's club, and
proved even more entertaining than
usual. It is always an interesting sub
ject, the club members taking part in the
discussions more freely than in some of
the other departments. A few gentle
men were present by invitation, and
Messrs Travis and Rawls being called
upon held a very amusing discussion on
.'parental training." Mr. Travis depro
eating the use of the rod under any cir
cumstances, while Mr. Rawls thought a
whipping judiciously administered wa6
decidedly beneficial where a rebellious
child was concerned. Each gave a dif
ferent interpretation of Solomon's well
known proverb, and the mothers present
enjoyed the theoretical side of the argu-
