BEAUTIFYING THE
SCHOOL GROUNDS

SCHOOL GROUNDS
Some of the members of the Par
entTeacher Association have offered
to furnish hardy bulbs for fall plant
ing, to help beautify the school
grounds, provided other parents and
children will contribute an equal
number, or money to purchase the
same.
Tulip, narcissus, daffodil, jonquil,
and hyacinth bulbs would be accept
able: also iris and peonies. Contrib
utions of one cent or more would be
gladly received. The pupils will
plant them under the supervision of
the teachers, thus helping to give the
children a sense of ownership and to
awaken an interest in gardening
If money is contributed, it is sug-
gested that the children be given an
opportunity to earn it.
1t is hoped that more extensive
plan of improving the school grounds
will be carried out next spring.

MOVIES MAY Be
PART OF PROGRAM
Civic CenterS of City May Put
on Shows Six Days in
the Week.

Haley Civic clubs success with
moving pictures is likely TO cause
every civic center in the city 20 in
troduce movies as "a regular part Of
its work. T.. O. Manning. city con-
troller. and r.. h. Barnes municipal
director Of recreation. have been APP
pointed on a special committee TO
investigate the cost Of having muni-
cipal moving pictures every night in
the week.
Present plans Of the municipal
recreation committee are 10 have
eight shows a week. one every night
except Sunday and two on Saturday
afternoon for the children. In this
way nearly every civic club would
have the use OF the machine one
night a week. The same films would
be used at each place and this would
reduce the cost 10 a minimum.
Mr.. Barnes has submitted the cost
of a machine and that first set Of
films TO the municipal committee and
il is probable that the members will
take some definite action on pur-
chasing a machine when the special
committee gives its report at the
next meeting. 10 is the plan 20 Guy
one or more sets OF films which
could be exchanged for others with
the film exchanges OF the larger
cities.
Haley school had it's first picture
show two weeks ago, when three Sc
lected films were shown. The at
tendance was large enough 20 pay
all expenses and it is thought that
even more people viii attend the
show next Tuesday night Pictures
were planned for every other Tues
day night but they were postponed
this week, owing 10 preparations
that were being made for the school
children's entertainment that was
given Wednesday afternoon.
