PARENT-TEACHER MEETING 
THE Manchester Parent-Teacher 
Association held its December 
meeting Wednesday evening at the 
Price school and had for the speaker 
of the evening, Rev. Irad Hardy of 
East Gloucester. 
The meeting was opened at eight 
o'clock by the president, Mrs. Seddie 
Follett. An invitation from the Ar- 
bella club to co-operate with that or- 
ganization in the Christmas festivities 
this year was accepted, and it was 
yoted that the association march in 
the parade Christmas eve, carrying 
a banner. The President appointed 
the social committee of the associa- 
tion as the committee to attend a 
getting the banner. Reports of th 
recent state conference at anes 
were given by Mrs. Follett, Miss 
Fannie Knight and Mrs. Hattie 
Mrs. Follett’s report was 
particularly interesting and amusing. 
A number of Arbella girls under 
the leadership of Mrs. F. G. Cheever 
had come to the meeting prepared to 
rehearse with the asociation the sing- 
ing of the Christmas songs The 
Manchester Hymn, “Silent. Night, 
Holy Night,” and “America,” and 
this singing really opened the pro- 
gram of the evening’s entertainment. 
Rev. Mr. Hardy took: for his topic, 
“The Task that the Parent and the 
Teacher have in Common.” The term 
most frequently used in connection 
with the developing stage of a child’s 
life is education, he said. Education 
is the common task of the teacher 
and parent, and it has such far reach- 
ing results as to be a grave responsi- 
bility. The speaker's own definition 
of education was : The development 
of all capacities ‘of the child for 
| greatest usefulness in the community, 
. in the nation and in the world. 
“The assets of the nation are not 
its railroads, not its factories, not its 
mines nor its forests, but its people; 
and the character of its people is de- 
termined largely by the influence of

This was one of Rev. Mr. Hardy’s 
most forceful statements in regard to 
the responsibility of those who shape 
the lives of little children, and he 
went on to speak of some ways to 
help do the task efficiently. 
The teacher’s responsibility is the 
care of the children of whom she has 
charge, but she cannot make fine men 
and women of children whose every 
instinct is based on the ideas gleaned 
from a selfish home. Parents must 
mould their children in the first years — 
of their lives before they reach the 
stage where other people are in 
charge of them, To teach ideals of 
mantiness. honor and kindliness, they 
must have those ideals for themselves 
before they can teach them to their 
children. 
Parents and teachers must stand 
ready to give a helping hand to their 
boys and ‘girls when they come to the 
rough places in life. Many times a 
tap “of a mother’s fingers on a win- 
dow pane or of a teacher’ s pencil up- 
on the desk, a kind word, a smile, 
will prove a help. 
The meeting closed with the sing- 
ing of ‘ “America.”
