Teachers Meeting.

The second meeting of the Weak

was held in the courthouse in Ores
den, Oct. q, 1917. All joined in
singing several national songs.
Miss Terry, who is teacher of the
third grade in the Martin school,
brought several of her pupils, each
of whom had story prepared to tell.
This they did in the most pleasing
and child-like way. They also sung
several songs which were enjoyed.
This is new feature of the teach
ers' meetings and very interesting
one. Some pupils from the Gleason
school will have charge of that part
of the program next time.
Mr.. R. E. Ellis made a talk on
Glow to Beatty School Grounds"
giving full instructions as to the best
way to set the trees, their arrange
ment, etc. 1t is to be regretted that
more were not present.
The meeting adjourned for the
morning, as weather conditions pre-
vented other members on the pro-
gram from coming in the morning.
Mr.. Suddath and Mrs. FINS Gar
rett made short talks in the after
noon, urging the teachers to help in
obtaining signatures to foodpledge
cards, which is an effort to help in
the conservation of food. Each one
was given sufficient number of
these cards for his community. It
is to be hoped each will endeavor to
see that these cards are distributed
and signed by those who are anx-
ious to help the government at this
critical time.
Although in the morning few teach
ers were present on account of the
rain, yet by afternoon there was an
attendance of about 10 teachers.
Those who were on the program
for this meeting and could not come
will be on the program next time.
