The association assisted Miss Moore in serving the football banquet. This proved most successful both as to numbers and to execution of all details. A column of material has been furnished for the Fairmontonian each month. A variety show to be given by the men members of the organization, under the leadership of the Ways and Means Committee, promises an entertaining social event for the spring. Though still small in numbers, the interest and loyalty of its membership promises a growing future for the Fairmont P.-T. A. Parent Teachers Association Eleven

THE DRAGON CLARK POWELL, Clerk C. H. PARSONS C. M. PHILLIPS C. T. BURSON CHESTER CRAUDER. Pres. A. W. SHOCK The Hoard of Education of Van Huren Township The year 1928 and ' 29 has had many perplexing problems for our Board of Education, and the members of our Board fully realize the responsibility that has been entrusted to them. They have devoted hours of time and thought to their task, and are ever ready and willing to face these responsibilities. A fine spirit of cooperation prevails among the personnel of our board members, and each member considers his obligations sacred. The ever increasing population of the communities in our township, together with the possibilities of annexation of certain portions, has demanded a great deal of attention on the part of our building program, but after much study and careful consideration, the building program will soon become a reality. Because Van Buren Township has the largest school system in the county unit, the board has seen fit to place Mr. Clark Powell. Clerk-Treasurer of the Board, on a full time basis to act as Purchasing Agent as well as a representative between the Board and the faculty. His services in this capacity have added materially to the success and harmony of our school system. While we can point with pride to our present schools, yet there are still higher goals to attain, and it is the desire of the Board to give the patrons of Van Buren Township a school system that will be second to none in the state. CHESTER CRAUDER, President. Ten
