PARENT-TEACHER MEETING 
The Manchester Parent-Teacher 
meeting for this month was _ held 
Wednesday evening at the Price 
school. Mrs. D. T. Beaton, in the 
absence of the president and the 
vice-president, opened the meeting 
and spoke a little about the new 
work which is being done along the 
lines the Parent-Teachers associa- 
tions have chosen, Miss Egbert, of 
Gloucester, spoke briefly about the 
new Parent-Teacher magazine, 
‘The Children’s Crusade,’’ which 
is to be published. The paper will 
have a wide scope and will have one 
great aim, to help the child. Miss 
Egbert, herself, will do a great deal 
of the important work, for which 
she is well qualified by reason of 
her long experience along literary 
lines. 
The speaker of the evening was 
H,. ©. Wadsworth, of the State 
Board of Education, and his subject 
was a most interesting and timely 
one, ‘‘Team Play between the Home 
and the School.’’ He spoke of team 
play as the greatest possible force 
to give effectiveness to the work of 
any organization, and named the 
five necessary elements in team play 
NORTH 
and self-effacement. It is necessary 
to have the right man in the right 
place, so that those who work with 
him will understand and place their 
confidence in his work. Each man 
must be trained to do his own work 
well and to take the responsibility 
for that work. Co-operation and 
unity are important factors in suc- 
cessful work, and in this connection 
Mr. Wadsworth told of an incident 
which ecaleulated to prove that in- 
different players, working in har- 
mony and unison, might accomplish 
more than ‘‘star’’?’ men who cannot 
co-operate The greatest of these 
five elements, the speaker decided, 
is self-effacement—a willingness to 
do away with the awards of 
‘“orand-stand playing,’’ which too 
often sacrifices the victory. All 
these things, which are so important 
in athletics, are equally so in busi- 
ness, church or school. The school 
committee and the superintendent 
must work together; there must be 
perfect understanding and _har- 
mony between the superintendent 
and the teachers; and there must be 
‘“‘team play’’ between the school 
and tke home There is a great 
field for service in the home with re- 
gard to the health of the pupils, as 
well as to the other factors which 
as individual efficiency, personal 
responsibility, co-operation, unity go to make up the fineness of

working these days. 
In concluding, Mr. Wadsworth 
which so many are 
said that many a man who igs 
clamoring for the return to the 
reading, writing and _ ’rithmetie 
system of education of the little red 
schoolhouse is in reality pleading — 
the causu of the old-fashioned home, 
where the fathers and mothers 
seemed to be able to find time to 
take an enveloping interest in their 
children. He suggested that the 
old-time father and mother ‘‘come 
back.’’ 
Mr. Wadsworth’s address was so 
pleasing that everyone agreed that 
Wednesday evening’s meeting was 
one of the most pleasant of the sea- 
a 
. 
son, and the piano and ’cello duets, — 
by Miss Helen Knight and Frank 
Knight were greatly enjoyed. After 
the program, a pleasant social hour, — 
during which cocoa and crackers 
were served by the social commit- 
tee, was enjoyed. 
Business Note. 
Martin McDonald and William Z. — 
Fogarty, proprietors of the North 
Shore market on Central street, 
Salem, have purchased and _ will 
conduct the former H. B. Hinchliffe 
market at Manchester. They will 
call there new _ possession the 
‘‘North Shore Market’’ the same as 
their Salem store. The Manchester 
store is located at 5 Beach street. 
It is proposed to conduct it as an — 
all-the-year-around market,  al- 
though of course their summer trade — 
will be a big feature. _ 
The success of Messrs. McDonald 
and Fogarty in the market buisness — 
is well known. Succeeding to the 
old-established ‘‘Porter’s Market’’on — 
Central street, where they had been 
employed for many years, they con- 
tinued the business along the same 
high class lines and have met with 
marked success. 
It is interesting to note that for — 
years they have enjoyed a big North 
Shore trade at the Salem store and 
their acquisition of the Manchester 
establishment will unquestionably 
be hailed with satisfaction by the 
summer residents who have already 
appreciated their efforts in the 
Salem store. The new store, while 
already well equipped, is being 
further improved and a complete 
line of provisions, canned goods, 
etc., will be installed. It is expect- 
ed to open the new store next week. 
The new owners have a 6-year lease 
of the store.
