A large number of parents came to see how their children are behaving or why they got the grades they did. Most of them went away with cheerful looks, but some were rather gloomy. It Is our opinion that the teacher who had the most company that night was Miss Margaret Simms, the music teacher. This was caused partly by the fact that Miss Simms has around 500 pupils. She, like the other teachers, dis played books which are used in each of her classes. She had pic tures of a great many of the mu sically famous people. Some 260 parents visited this room on the night of open house, and Just about everybody came out with a smile for practically every body's little children behave quite nicely In music period.
