PARENTS Never' before has space been set aside in the Decanois to honor the parents of the De- catur High School students, This year the sen- ior class wishes to devote these pages not only to the honoring of the parents of the student body but to recounting the various activities of the Parent Teacher organization. No play, opera, program, or entertainment has ever been presented in the high school that was not dependent upon the kindness and gen- erosity of the parents for its success. High school football and basketball games are well supported by a large group of sincerely in- terested parents. Both the Decanois and the Gbserver find true friends among the parents of the school when they launch their adver- tising campaigns. The teachers and students of the Decatur High School deeply appreciate the cooperation, the interest, the sympathetic understanding, the unfailing support given by the parents. One of the most interesting events of the school season was held on the night of Feb- ruary 23 when over nine hundred parents at- tended high school. The affair was under the auspices of the Parent Teachers Association. After a group meeting in the auditorium they ARE You ARE Yau AMEMBER AMEIFPEER P TA., P TA., , f T Jg1N JOIN NOW NOW it .. were sent to home rooms. At this point every light in the building went out because of the heavy load on the transformers. Student guides equipped themselves with candles from Miss Pease's vesper service supply and kept stair- ways and class rooms lighted for over an hour until new fuses could be adjusted. Not one ac- cident of any kind occurred. Parents found the right teachers and class rooms. The new addi- tion offered great attraction since few of the visitors had ever seen it. THE DECANOIS 1937
