P-TA Records Show
 Four Years Progress

Parent Teachers Association officers have called a meeting for Tuesday, Nov. 8 in the High School auditorium to elect off cers and plan the program for the year. This election would ordinarily have been held last May but disinterest and lack of attendance prevented it.
 This association was organ. ized in December, 1945, and in, the past four years has been a most active and beneficial aid to the school, it's books showing an actual monetary turnover of $300O, for equipment, fur nlshlngs and books.
 In the winter of 1947-1948 warning was received from the Northwest Association of Ac- credited Schools that unless the Seward schools library were brought up to standard it would lose it's standing as an accredit- cd school.
 The P-TA, under the direction of Mrs. Harold Davis, put on a program for the purpose of ob- tainlng enough accredited liter ature to bring the library up to date. $500 was raised for the
 project, and the Seward high school remains on the accredited list.
 Organizations and business houses have cooperated 100 per cent with any and all programs for the benefit of education, according to officers, but the parents, except for a few, have not shown any interest. The whole burden of a P-TA pro- gram has been carried by very small group of parents for the benefit of the many. This is very often the case in such an
 organization, but in a small community such as Seward, with a school population of near ly 400, it is hoped that a large percentage of parents will be present at this meeting to con- tinue the work of support and improvement of the school in Seward

farmers to provide their own storage
for corn and harvest the crop so it

Several thousand copies of a new

Rev. w. f. Waybright, former
pastor of the parish, now located at
MELVILLE, Pa, will preach at the 1890
service. DR.. William P. Cline, pastor
of st. Marks Lutheran church, of
Clarksburg, will speak at the after
noon service at 2:30.
Rev. A. X. Jones, DID,, pastor of
the church since July 1, 1882, eX-

Lunches For School
Children Emphasized

The school child's lunch, whether
eaten at school or at home, should
include about one-third of the days
food requirement, DR.. r. H. Riley,
Director of Health, emphasized in
calling attention to this statement on
Maryland's school lunch pogram just
released by the Chief Nutritionist of
the State Department of Health.
Since one-fourth of the weeks meals
are eaten at noon on school days, it
is highly important for both the
home and the school to recognize the
essentials of good lunch.
"Out of 309,512 children attending
Maryland's public schools during the
academic year 1948-1949, a total of
1854 boys and girls participated in
the National School Lunch Program"
the Nutritionist announced. "This
number represents about one-third
of the school age population in this

tainers from roll of pre-sterilized
plastic tube and fill with the baby's
formula.
Now no one can say I'm old
fashioned, so asked my neighbor's
pediatrician about the new nurser.
| was told that after much expert
mentation and testing registered
nurse had developed not only new
product, but actually an entirely
new method of infant feeding {.
the closest approach to natures
own way.
Shellie bottles are sterile, dispos-
able, and collapsible. And, accord
ing to doctors, those three words
tell the whole story! Since the
bottles are sterile, there's no time,
energy, or temper wasted in endless
cleaning or handling clumsy ster-
ilizer equipment. You use disposa-
bottle once -. and throw it away.
"Collapsible" means that the ajor
cause of air collie in babies is elm
mated because the flexible bottle
collapses as the formula is with
drawn-no vacuum can form. Baby
doesn't have to fight for his dinner
against partial vacuum pressure
as with glass bottles. With disposal
bottles the formula drips steadily
until the container is emptied and
collapsed =. easily, naturally, and
with the nurser in any position.
