Parent-Teachers'
Association

The third regular meeting OF the
Parent-Teachers' Association was
held Tuesday evening, Nov. %, in the
high school auditorium. The program
was given by the six lower grades and
was attended by capacity crowd.
The numbers given by the children
as announced last week, were exam
Piles of regular school work and we've
very interesting and well given.
A short business meeting followed
the program. The committee APP
pointed to interview the physicians
of the town regarding a medical ex-
animation for our school, reported
that the physicians had expressed
themselves as glad to cooperate in
this work provided that the teachers
weed out first those who obviously
need no examination so as to short
en- the task. A committee was en-
powered to consult with Mr.. Mason
and the doctors to arrange a day con-
venient for the clinic to be held at the
school. The purpose is to try to re-
move any physical carIse for failure
to do as good work as is desirable.
The chairman of the program COM
mittee asked the members of the as
ISOLATION to feel much more free
about expressing their desires in re-
gard to the kind of program to be
given.
The committee has an opportunity
to secure Prof. O'Shea of the Wiscon-
sin U as a speaker for the December
meeting. The association voted to
have him come and pay his expenses
by attending the lecture and paying
admittance All who would like to
hear him are invited to attend.
Mrs. Kulstad reported that $38 had
been raised at the lower grade food
sale and that slide for those grades
had been ordered.
Many more patrons and teachers
signed the constitution and paid their
dues. Any still wishing to do so may
send dues (25c) to the secretary.
Lunch in the cafeteria and social
hour followed the business meeting.
