MRS. GRICE TALKS TO CLUB WOMEN
Secretary of the National Congress of Mothers
Addresses Meetlns at Twentieth Century
Club Last Friday Afternoon, Smyrna.

Friday afternoon Mrs. Edwin G.
Grice, of Philadelphia, secretary of the
National Congress of Mothers, lec-
tured at the Century Club. "Educa-
ton, the Public School System and
Children" was the theme of the ad-
dress. Mrs. Grice has a charming
personality which made her lecture
doubly interesting. The Congress of
Mothers is trying to urge the cooper
alton of the Home and the School say
ing, "The children of to-day will be
the rulers and politicians of to- morrow"
and if the child is given educational
training combined with moral and
spiritual environments, results will be
materially bettered, and incidentally,
municipal offices and politics. Mrs
Grice spoke of the overcrowding of
many of the schools, where as many as
seventy and ninety children are placed
in rooms scarcely large enough for
half the number, and the consequen
confusion of all disciplinary rules.
She also urged that the parents of
school children should be acquainted
with the teacher and try to help her by
cooperative work with the children at
home. She said she did not beg for
dogma or dogmatic religion in the
Public Schools of the United States,
but she did believe in the God spirit
pervading, without which, nothing
would avail. Mrs. Grice believes this
great organizing of women throughout
the country is for some good purpose,
and she thinks that Club women make
better wives and mothers and house
keepers, because they are thus brought
in touch with the outer world and the
issues of the day and are better equip
ped fer all purposes. Mrs. Grice talked
socially with the ladies after the lee
ture. and made many friends amongs
them. A piano Duet by Miss Mills
and Mrs. Reynolds, of Clayton, fur
nished music for the meeting, and thu
Club adjourned. Cor. Sec.
