Although FTAers are still on the receiving end, they are striving, through their organization, to learn to be the best of givers. This learning process takes place at the regular every other Monday night meetings held in the social room and is helped along by participation in various all-school activities. Outstanding among these activities sponsored by the Future Teachers is the high school FTA conference held on MC ' s campus every fall. This year approximately 250 high school members of the national organization from the surrounding communities attended the general assembly and the discus- sion groups led by MC ' s own members. The club ' s home-made ice cream sold at a social in the early fall and cocoa and doughnuts served the night before term exams helped make FTA a popular group on campus. Officers Carol Honeyman, Peggy Clouse, Lois Ogan, Ann Beauchamp, Margaret Hilbert, Jane Keller, and John Mack, along with various other members, attended the state FTA conference in Indianapolis and the spring workshop at Taylor University. Dr. N. N. Leasure acted as co-ordinator of not only FTA ' s local activities, but also those of the state organization. twenty-eight
