ed of Mrs. H. V. Martin, Mrs.
Howard Hammond, V. P. Bevis
and Miss Gertrude Watzling.
Group discussion was permitted
on each topic introduced and
there was lively participation
from the audience during the
entire evening.
Mrs. Martin's subject was
what is a good home life. She
brought out the importance of
love and affection based upon
faith in each other among par
ents and children.
Miss Watzling discussed the
necessity for a feeling of security
for children, the problems of the
middle child and the dangers of
making comparisons between
children. Each child should be
praised on the basis of his own
efforts and ability and not com
pared to another child with
greater ability.
Mrs. Hammond spoke on a
code of ethics for children,
stressing the fact that children
are more apt to imitate their
parents than to do as they are
told so that there cannot be a
separate code of ethics for chil
dren and another for parents
The inconsistency of permitting
children to do something one
day and forbidding it the next
was also discussed.
Mr. Bevis presented some of
the problems of truancy and pet
ty stealing in the schools He
stated that much of the stealing
was caused by parents who per
mit their children to bring mon
ey other than lunch money to
school, thereby giving other chil
dren an opportunity and temp
tation to steal. It is against the
school rules for children to
bring money' to school othet
than that required for tneir
lunches and many parents seem
not to realize the seriousness of
the problems they create by per
mitting their children to ignore
this rule, he stated.
Mrs. Mary Norvell's second
grade room won the attendance
prize.
Refreshments were served by
mothers of pupils in the second
grade, with Mrs. Russell Hogue,
