assembly last evening, on the
subject of the use of educational facilities.-.
:: ..
Mr. Raymond surprised his hearers
by. saying that he advocated the frequent
use of newspapers by teachers
in class-roo- m instruction with particular
reference to lessons on the iniquities
of the alcohol habit The dangers
of alcohol Is one of the subjects
that all schools are requested by the
National Educational Association to
treat of in the regular curriculum, and
Mr. Raymond stated that in his search
for proper text-book- s on this subject
he could find none to equal the stories
that occur almost (daily in the newspapers.
And he continued along this
line by declaring that in his opinion
few people read newspaper stories so
as to get the best and the most of
the ! lessons - contained ' therein. He
urged his hearers to develop a more
thorough reading habit, and,especially
urged them to make more frequent
use of the public library. ,
The health of the individual, with
cooperation, coordination, and loyalty
with one's fello workers and employ-er- a
the principal '. things a boy

of the speaker.
