Road Supervisor Road District, No. 10 T u W i.s o n Parent-Teacher Association Notes The October meeting of the Parent-Teacher Ass’n occurred at 3:00 P. M., Oct. 12th in the High School assembly room. The president, Mrs. Devore, reported that the Social Service Committee had called a series of three meetings, the first in the interest of registration, the other two for discussion of measures to be voted on in the coming | election. She also reported that the Benefit Committee had plan ned an entertainment in the na ture of a Carnival, ta be held in the pavilion, the evening of Oc .. 27th. Mrs. J. W. Reed, chair man of the Membership Commit tee reported several new mem bers for the association. Then followed some discussion as to the possibility of providing hot lunches for the school chil dren and a resolution was sub mitted to the school board by the asssociation, asking that some provision for school lunches be made. A committee, coi listing of Mr. Guthrie, Miss Scnrepel and Mrs. liobley was appointed to estimate the cost of necessary equipment. The program for the afternoon was then taken up. The first number, a vocal solo entitled ‘‘My Rosary” by Mr. Baker, was great ly enjoyed as was also “ The Sand man” a song by the children of the first grade. Dr. Adix then addressed the association, h i s subject being “ Fresh Air, Food and Sleep” . His talk, which was uery inter- • esting and instructive, was full of helpful suggestions concerning the valueof an abundance of pure air and of simple, wholesome food in promoting healthful sleep and the physical welfare of children in general. The committee in charge of the next meeting is Mrs. Adix, Dr. Wells and Mrs. Standish. It will occur the second Thursday in No vember and, being an evening meeting, it is hoped that more of the masculine parents will find it possible to attend. Nearly Two Hundred Make World Tour The novel Trip ‘round t h e World progressive supper, served by the Ladies Aid of the Est.aca- da M. E. Church Wednesday evening, was even more of a suc cess than the ladies had expect ed, and as a result several of the late travellers found the dining cars eaten out and the various hotels in the foreign countries taxed to capacity. The proceeds from the sale of tickets amounted to about $60., which will be used in the work of the society. k e /n o te .
