Tin- regular monthly m eeting of the W illamina P.-T. A. was held in the high school auditorium last evening w ith a fairly Rood attendance, but not aa many as should have been out, considering the im portance of m atters taken Up at the m eeting. D uring the business session John D urst, chairm an of the play- shed project com m ittee, reported th a t the project had hem allowed by the CWA. who will pay the labor expense, and it will now he op to the P.-T. A. to sponsor m eans of raising funds for pur chase of tile needed mateials. Mrs. Hall's room was aw arded the picture for having th e largest representation of parents a t the m eeting. The chairm an of the program com m ittee, Mrs. L. L. Mitchell, then introduced th e guest sp eak - e ro f the evening. Bernice Becker, president of the Yamhill County Public Health Association, who in tu rn introduced Miss K aufm an, educational secretary of the asso ciation, w h o addressed a few words especially to the teachers, inform ing them th a t she is at the county su p erin ten d en t’* office the vecond and fourth Saturdays of each m onth, where the teachers inay consult h e ro n m atters per taining to health projects in the schools. Mrs. Becker then tild of »he work the association is doing in the county, outlining several of th e ir activities for the w elfare of the children of the county. She also told of the Tubereolosis clin ics which they are holding in the schools, and how to go about m aking arrangem ents for one in this district. In this respect she stated th a t the most su sceptible age for the developm ent of the t. h. germ was when the child was in the teen age. She described the tubereolosis test as adm inis tered in the schools, anil assured her hearers th a t there was no a fte r effects or painful operations but is a very simple m atter. Lloyd Wood of Valley Junction then made a few rem arks, and said the American Legion were w orking along this line as they were the only organization that reached every co m in u n ty of the sla te . A fter favorable r e m a r k s by m ost of the p aren ts present, a vote was taken and it was decid ed th a t the P.-T. A. would spon sor a te s t clinic here in the very near future. This test will not be compulsory, and at the time of the clinic slips will he sent out to the various parents o f the dis trict to ascertain their wishes in the m atter. There will be no age lim it on the test, as it will he open to pre-school age children as well as those atten d in g school. President R. Y. Neely in a few well-clmsen words expressed the appreciation of the P.-T. A. for presence of the visiting speakers, and for the inform ation which they had im parted so clearly. . - M M .
