_
Rev. G. G. Bruce Delivers In
teresting Address at Doug
las — Declamations.
In a mtesstlge full of fool for;
thought. Rev. G. C. Bruce addressed I
the 'Douglas Parent-Teacher Associa
tion Monday nrght. in a short talk on
the great value of being prepared j
mentally for the right opportunity
when 'it comes along. Good health;
and the privilege of communication,
he «fttd, are the two moot valuable
assets one can have for happiness.
Obstacles Prevent Happiness
Quoting tlie well known educator
and writer. Nicholas Murray Bustler,
Rev. Bruce mentioned “greed” as be
ing the greatest menace to happi
ness—green for power, money' power.
To attalin wealth wo have men grab
bing postilions they are not qualified
to fUL Lawlessness is also resorted
to to g‘ain certain ends.
Tendency to Disregard Authority
Lawlessness, said Rev. Bruce, fre
quently begins In the home. Uncon
sciously the parent allows the child
to sidostep his authority and as the
child advances and goes to school, re
fuses to recognise the authority of
the teacher. Pupils of today, many
of thorn are allowed to take elective
study and the lawlessness goes an
other step. No one is qualified to
say what he should study or not
study until he has education
Pitfalls of Civilization
iSoveral things were mentioned by
Rfev. Bruce whloh seriously Interfere
with the right .progress of the chil
dren. The phase of organized amuse
ments which keep the child away
from itho home was touched upon.
Extrcmo fashions, jazz dancing and
ttoo general disregard for religion are
some of the things wihich must be
corrected for the weir ire of the chit-1
iln.n.
Other numbers orb the program in i
addition to Rev. .Bruce's talk c on-1
sigteil of selections by the Junior and j
Senior ordhestras, piano duet by |
Elizabeth 'Robertson and Alberta Gall
was which were enjoyed.
The declamatory contests which
were a feature of the program were
especially entertaining anti great j
credit is due to those who partici
pated n.ml their coaches. Consider
able tints and effort has been ex
pended by tlte students in preparing
for th.o contest. Tho.se taking part
were Klsio KUlmiiston, Arne Vesojn,
Mamie Feusi, Gordon Gray. Selma
Aalto, Rangnar Kfomqiunt, Helen
JAndstram and Martin Soy. The
first four mentioned were declared
the winners of the contest and were
awarded prizes. Judges kX the con-j
tef't were Mits Ohunman, Mrs. G. C.
Mii'chell, Mrs. Jannes Christoo, Mrs.
Win. Jhrnia?, Mrs. II. McKvoy. F. A.
J. Gallwas and Guy Smith.
Preceding the program a discus
sion was held regarding the duraUor
of the basketball season for tin
school here and the opinion was ex
proved that the season is probably
a little too long. The matter will
likely como up for consider;'*ion ai
the, spring school meet this year
when formal opening nnd closing
date3 iwlill be set for basketball in
the schools of the Territory.
TO HOLD SWAP PARTY
The regular meeiing of the Doug
las Island Women’s Club will be field

nature of a swap party and in addi
