P-TA Told Home
Security Safeguard
To Nation's Future
Stressing-the objects of the or
ganization, Mrs. C. G. Davis of The
Dalles, regional vice president of
the Oregon Parent-Teachers assoc
iation, told the Heppner chapter
that home security is essential to
the future stability of the nation.
Mrs. Davis was guest speaker at the
Founders day program given in the
music room of the school and made
several observations relative to ed
ucation of the child.
Every parent should make a se
cure home because children need
this sense of security; a musical
education of some kind is needed
in every school and in every child's
life; juvenile delinquency is due to
the great numbers of youthful
workers below the age of 18 and
because of the many mothers in war
work, and she explained how the
P-TA is caring for these children;
recreation shouul be developed so
that when our soldiers come home
they will have something to help
them while they are adjusting
themselves to routine life; spiritual
education is a necessity for all
these and other points highlighted
the speaker's talk. She also empha
sized the fact that school property
belongs, not to the school boards,
but to the taxpayers and that these
buildings should always be avail
able to the community.
