BROVVN URING this year the Mothers' Club of the Parent-Teachers' Association continued the splendid work started in September, 1925- Although a young organization, they have grown rapidly in numbers and in spirit. The organization, as in the past, has had the best interest of Sunset and its students at heart. During the week of the National Education Association Convention thc Sunset High mothers served on the Hospitality, Information, and Courtesy committees, providing homes and transportation for many delegates. They have helped to, further interest in good Scholarship by entertaining the Honor Students for the first entire semester with a theatre party, and by presenting a twenty-five dollar Thrift Account to the student in each graduating class making the highest average for the entire four year high school course. Several students would have had to leave school had our Mothers' Club not provided clothing, lunches, and tuition for them. For the school itself the club bought shrubs and trees for the grounds, and curtains and draperies for the Domestic Science and Domestic Art Departments. The annual dues to the Texas High School Press Associatiorf for the Stampede Staff were paid, and the members of the staff were presented with pins for their flaithful service. The club presented Mr. VVilson, the principal, with a life membership in the State Congress of Parents and Teachers. They also gave him a pair of Bison book-ends as a Christmas remembrance. . A new department this year was a program for the study of Adolescent Psychology. At each meeting a speaker of national or local importance lectured on some interesting phase of this subject. , 8' .4
