CARRIED ON

TloNs ARE FORMED
Sixty=Five Branches of Congress Out
side of Los Angeles Are Do
ing Great Work Among
the Pupils

III HE great work OF Ine CdlllorHie'
Congress of Mothers is spreading.
II Hardly a day passes that some
branch is not organized by mothers
and teachers in the sunshine cities and
towns of the state. The work of es-
tablishfng Parent Teacher associations,
federating circles and securing auXil-
iaries is proceeding under high pres
sure.
While the tireless organizers are at
work a special committee is laboring
to district the state. The branches al
ready in harness are vigorously pur-
suing the work of increasing their
memberships under the new system
recently promulgated by Mrs. c. c.
Noble and her associates.
There are sixty-five branches of the
congress outside of Los Angeles, 1t
is probable that the number will be
more than doubled during 1910. The
task undertaken by State President
Mrs. Chalmers Smith and working
staff is one of huge proportions, but
must prove a complete success in the
hands of this experienced and. faithful
organization.
Publicity Is Needed
One of the handicaps in general state
work has been the lack of publicity;
the announcement of effort winch
comes with close communion. The
self-sacrificing officers and members
of many outside circles never learn OF
the encouraging spread OF the work
until enlightened through WISH OIL
some state officer.
In order to remedy this situation
The Herald has opened its columns TO
the Parent-Teacher associations, chlld
study circles and congress auXllarleS
generally, which are located outside Oh
Los Angeles. The latter branches are
given a large department each sat-
urday. -.
Comfy and state association meet
inps announcements, personals ana
general news hereafter will be pub
Iished in The Herald each THURSDAY
morning. The cause is so worthy ana
the field so great that support Is
deemed a duty as well as a pleasure
by this paper.
