H M M THE CADUCEUS BEAUMONT MOTHERS' CLUB By RUTH MOHR f-ff.-7 years ago when Mr. Fuller was still at Yeatman, he spoke to the mothers of a senior E class about organizing a mothers' club. He felt that an opportunity for the mothers to study the problems of their sons and daughters was very necessary, and therefore, was very anxious that Yeatman High School should have such a club. He appointed a Mrs. Webster as chairman of the committee that was to draw up the by-laws of the new organization, and an- nounced in the school that a mothers' club was to be formed. As a result, on April 25, 1924, Hfty-six ladies attended the first meeting of the Yeatman High School Mothers' Club. A nominative committee had selected ladies as candidates for the different offices and the election was held. The following ladies were the first officers of the club: President, Mrs. Elizabeth S. Stellwagen, Vice-President, Mrs. Rose M. Webster, Secretary, Mrs. Geo. Guntly, Treasurer, Mrs. Linda D. Hehmann, Executive Officer, Mrs. J. A. Mowrey. These ladies became very active members, and work was begun in earnest. Then Beaumont opened, and on hearing that Mr. Fuller was to be transferred, the mothers moved with him to that school where Yeatman's Mothers' Club became Beaumont's. Many new ladies have joined since that first meeting and Beaumont High School Mothers' Club now boasts of more than three hundred members. In May, 1926, new officers were chosen. They were President, Mrs. R. M. Webster: Vice- President, Mrs. A. E. Weeke, Treasurer, Mrs. J. E. Barzen: Secretary, Mrs. Theo. H. Mohr: Executive Officer, Mrs. E. S. Stellwagen. All these officers take a great interest in their work, and when there is a new campaign or plan calling for extra work, there are, also, many volunteers. The purpose of the organization is to establish an acquaintance between the friends and faculty of the school, and by means of lectures, debates, papers, etc. to increase the educational work done at Beaumont. At every meeting some one speaks on various phases of child welfare and school problems, Splendid audiences have heard and profited by these lectures and many have spoken of the help derived from them. Following the business meeting the ladies have a social hour in the lunch room, and here the members are introduced to and become acquainted with the visitors and new ladies. As a cup of coffee goes a long way in breaking the ice. visitors are often impressed with the friendliness of Beaumont mothers. Everyone, whether she is a mother of a student at the school or not, is welcome at the' meetings. And, surely, it will not be a waste of time to listen to a lecture that will help one to rear one's children to be true citizens and worthy scholars of Beaumont High School. Seven
