For the benefit of those who do not understand the purpose of the P. T. A., Its officials have asked that a short summary of Its rea sons for being and its benefits be given. All parents are considered members of the association wheth er they pay dues or not, and are very welcome at all meetings. But we believe that every family is enough benefitted by the work of the association to Justify the re quest for dues. We wish you would all feel it Is your association; that you would come to the meetings and give one another the benefit of your criti cism, advice and inspiration. Why join the P. T. A.? Because it brings parents and teachers to gether for exchange of ideas, mak ing better parents, better teachers, and happier children. Because no group can so successfully influence public opinion and public school of ficials as an interested, enthusiastic group of parents. Because it is an education movement of real signi ficance. What becomes of your dues? 20 cents is sent to the state council. All other funds are used in our school for helping finance the hot lunch, prizes, pictures, or anything the members vote it would do the most good. Our next meeting will be Septem ber 30 in the auditorium at 2:30. We would like to have you come.

The sign was placed for the purpose of protecting children. It is turned face into traffic at times when children are on their way to or from school. At such times motorists who fail to take proper precaution on crossing the intersection may be endanger ing lives of the children.
