BT. A. Sets Membership Month
They'll Knock
(hi Igloo Doors
In Newest State
Wnen more than eleven mil
lion P T A. members open their
annual Membership Enrollment
month this October, they will be
urged to "knock on every door”
to find new members interested
in advancing the welfare of
children.
Some of those doors may open
to the oldest dwellings in the
Western hemisphere—stone ig
loo homes in Alaska, scheduled
soon to become the nation's 49th
state.
Here, as throughout the U S.,
the National Congress of Parents
and Teachers will seek to add
some half-million new "parents,
teachers or friends of children”
to what is already the nation's
largest voluntary service organ
ization.
Mrs. James C. Parker, of
Grand Rapids, Mich., president
of the National Congress, cites
"the dynamic potential of Alas
ka. our newest state.” as "com
parable to the spirit which has
enabled Parent-Teacher associa
tions to contribute so much to
the welfare of children."
The variety and scope of P T A
activities in the 61-year history of
the National Congress are re
flected today. Mrs. Parker noted,
in the everyday life of Alaskans
which ranges in spirit from the
quite sophisticated to the "truly
frontier.”
Alaska's Congress of Parents
and Teachers, which became part
of the national organization in
1957, today faces problems which
can be compared. Mrs. Parker
pointed out, with those recorded
over the years in tiny American
communities or in its largest ci
ties. For it is a land where . . .

in this country.
teachers and government work
ers regularly make trips "back in
the bush” to hunt and fish for
food for their families—and store
it in modern freezers.
—Where the airplane is the ac
cepted means of travel between
cities, but where the number of
sled dogs is increasing.
—Where teachers in schools
with large Eskimo or Indian pop
ulations must teach a second lan
guage—English—to many of their
charges, while other schools, es
pecially those on U.S. army bases,
maintain typically American lib
raries, theaters and bowling al
leys as part of their recreation
program.
Aims of the National Congress
membership month will apply
equally well in this dynamic new
state, Mrs. Parker pointed out, as
in its member organizations
throughout the continental United
States, in Hawaii and on Amer
ican military bases in Europe.
“For the primary purpose of
the P.T.A.,” she explained, “is to
safeguard children, to build for
the future in such a way that in
every community the lights of
home may always shine out.”
In designating October as the
period for membership enroll
ment, she called upon "every
parent-teacher member to knock
once more on the door, and at the
heart, of every American, so that
all of us, working together, may
make America the best possible
home for all our children.”
