P0neI Discussion
Featured AT Beach
School PTA Meeting

A highlight of the Beach School
Parent Teacher association at the
meeting last week was a panel
discussion led by DR.. j. l.. Eason
OF Mississippi State College,
Starkville.
1t was on control of the child
at home and at school and was
participated III by DR.. Eason, and
Mesdames Georgia Oliver and
Marie T. Wood and Miss Gladys
Thompson of the school faculty,
and Mesdames Robert Gulley, Jr.,
Stanley M. Bebler. and Joe Lyons
of the Parent Teacher associa-
ton.
In discussing the misconduct of
a child it was brought out that
prevention is better than punish
ment, though there are adequate
ways of handling the situation af-
ter it occurs.
"One of the surest means of
preventing misconduct" said DR..
Eason, us TO keep the child inter-
ested and busy, mentally and
physically, and to spend more
time with him than does the av-
erage parent" He should also be
taught that freedom, such as chill
dren in the United States enjoy,
also carries with it the respon-
sibility of using it wisely. The
child should also be made to feel
secure.
A pleasant part of the program
was a song group, in the Gar
den of Tomorrow and Mighty
LAX a Rose" sung by Miss Betty
Greenshield with Mrs. Robert
Farnsworth, Sr., at the piano.
During the business period,
which was directed by the presi-
dent Mrs. Charles w. Smith,
Mrs. Joe Lyons was elected vot-
ing delegate to the Pascagoula
Parent Teacher Council.
A report was heard from Mrs.
j. N. Lockard, chairman of the
building and grounds committee,
who stated that sheets had been
purchased for the school clinic
and the teachers lounge.
Mrs. Lockard also said that the
committee had recently held a
meeting with D. X. Stabler, land
scapist for the ingalls, Shipbuild-
ing Company and that he had
given them a number of valuable
suggestions for the spring plant
ing of shrubs and flowers along
the foundation of three sides of
the school.
Mrs. Smith announced that the
association charter had been re-
ceived and that a gold member
ship shield had been sent with il
showing that the organization had
gone well over the top in the
quota that was closed Nov. 80,
1914.
The association also is listed on
a special honor roll as having
sent bylaws and dues to the state
headquarters ahead of time.
Plans were discussed for a joint
observance of Founders day in
February by all the Parent
Teacher associations in the city.
1t was voted on affirmatively as
far as the Beach P-TA is con-
eerned.
