At the monthly meeting of the
Broad Creek Citizens Association held
Saturday, July 2. Mr.. Charles w. Clag
ett, well-known attorney, Prince
Georges County and the District of
Columbia, was the principal speaker.
He touched on matters of general in
terest to the entire assembl age, dwell
ing particularly on Incorporation of
communities, roads and schools, and re-
lated the history of the Parent Teach
ers Association of Hyattsville, its OBJ
jects. and the good it has accomplished
by obtaining ompetent teachers for
the town. Mr.. Clagett's address was
brief, but very instructive and to the
point, and was thoroughly enjoyed by
all. Mrs. L. H. Mcdonald, first Vice
President of the Association presided
in the absepce of the president, DIR.
Arno Viehoever. The prop ,sed new
calendar was discussed, and plans were

The Westphalia Community Club

1t is doubtful it there are many
community organizations situated as i:
Westphalia that gives more credltab lie
does this club.
Located at a cross roads, four miles
from any where, this school house in
District No 2. has become the center
of the neigborhood. Each last Satur-
day in the month some form OF amuse-
ment is provided and lectures, music,
plays, an occasional topic talk. and
stereopticon views keep everyone in
terested until late hour.
The evening of June 25th was no ex-
ception and was even more than US
ually enjoyable owing TO the fact that
two accomplished musicians from Wash
ington gave several violin and piano
selections that were greatly appreciat-
ed by the audience.
Another feature that met with gen.
eral satisfaction was the lecture of
Professor Wright upon ''Transporta-
tion," The subject does not sound es-
pecially allurlng, but illustrated as it
was by wonderful colored views taken
by the Professor and his descriptive
talk of personal happenings while
travelling through Siberia, Russia, the
Caucasus and Asia Minor made this
topic one of educational value.
Professor Wright used the new
stereopticon brought by the Club. This
is operated by strong electric battery
and throws beautiful, clean. and distinct
pictures.
A recent ruling of the club has made
the entertainments free to everyone
who cares to come, thus turning the
schoolhouse into truly Community
Centre.
Another important resolution is that
every one present at the meetings, if a
resident of Prince Georges. is allow
ed to vote upon any question of vital
interest to them as citizens of the
County except at the annual election
at which only Club members can vote.
In this way it is felt wider expires
sion of opinion will be obtained and
views be ci,culated throughout other
neighborhoods. The result has prove
the wisdom Of this decision for West
phalia now entertains at it's monthly
meetings guests from different sections
than Mellwood who evidence their in
terest by coming again and again.
