Douglass of the Woodstock schools has called a patrons' meeting for Thursday evening of this week. The main theme for discussion and consideration will be "Effective Co­ operation of the Home and School in the Development of Character." The meeting promises to be unusually in­ teresting ami a large attendance is an­ ticipated. Ralph Mullen, wlko teaches in the Maple Hill school in the town of Seneca, held a social on last Monday evening. A good program was rendered and the baskets sold for a ronnd sum. The dec­ orations were unusually good and show­ ed that the responsible person had an eye for harmony. Mr. O'Ronrke made au excellent auctioneer and added to the pleasure and profit of the occasion. There will be a teachers' meeting at Harvard on Saturday, Dec. 19. This is intended especially for the teachers of «eetk>n fourc which comprises the towns of Hartl&nd, Dnnham, Alden, Chemung. However, the teachers from other parts of the county are invited to attend The general subject for discussion will' be reading.4^ Supfc. Folk of Harvard will give an address. Let us have a large attendance. The Annual County Formers' insti­ tute will be held at Harvard on Friday and Saturday, Jan. 8 9. Pres. Thayer and Sec. WestphaJl are making plans for a latge meeting. There will be a strong corps of instructors from the University present, as well as some local speakefs. Local Farmers' institutes are being planned for the towns of Greenwood, Hebron, Alden, to be held on Wednes­ day, Jan. flth. This is a step that means much work for those shouldering the responsibilities and it is sincerely hoped that the people of those localities will take hold and he|p pnsh the work in a vigorous manuer. The County Farmers' institute can be a material success only as it reaches the local in terests and also educates the rising generations to an appreciation of the valne of these meetings. Mrs. Free­ man of the Greenwood school, Mr. Lowman of the Hebron school and Mr. Harrison of the Alden school will be found faithful allies of the local insti­ tute workers in planning the details of these meetings. The annual meeting of the Stock­ men's convention will be held at the University of Illinois during tbe last two weeks of January. Tbe regular short term of tbe University will be held at tbe same time and many people, young and old, from all parts of the state will be present at that time. Miss Amy Pierce of Hebron, wbo won the Bcliol&ielup at the dairy judging con­ test that was held in Hebron last spring, will attend this session. It is hoped that a way will be provided whereby more students will be given tbe same opportunity. This is certain­ ly one of the best investments that can be made. It guarantees a better aud more efficient class of farmers and citi­ zens. In fact, the future of the farm and the farm institutions will depend quite largely on the education of this kind that is provided for the young people of the present day. Tbe officers of the Farmers' institute are trying to secure the services of Pres. John W. Cook as speaker for the evening session of Friday, Jan, £th. Dr. Cook is a man of national promi­ nence in educational affairs and is oue of 'the most entertaining speakers of the profession. If they succeed in get­ ting him for this evening, tbe hall should be packed. The evening of the 8th will be given over to the discussion of school legislation with special refer­ ence to the proposed legislation sub mitted by the report of the Educational commission. The local meeting of the Farmers' club in the town of Riley will be held Friday of this week. Plans are practi­ cally completed for the holding of this meeting. All farmers from adjoining towns are invited to attend this meet­ ing. It would be especially valuable experience for those farmers who live in communities where these organi­ zations do not exist. It would inspire and encourage them to establish such societies in their own midst. What a boon it would be to the social, educa­ tional and industrial welfare of Mc­ Henry county if snch a society existed in everv town of McHenry connty.
