C., nby Mrs. Alice Birney, promoting child welfare in'home, school, church, and com- munity. The National Congress of Parents and Teachers is recognized as the largest group of vol- unteer -workers in the world devoted exclusively to child welfare. Because it is the agent making the contacts be- tween home' and school, the local association is the vital unit in the Congress. The home is the foundation for the child's life, the school builds on' this foundation, and just how effective this building will be depends on how well the founda- tion is-laid. By sympathetic understanding of each other's view point the teachers and parents form a very effective partnership in t.he educa- tion of the child. Because the objectives of edu- cation cannot be achieved by the teachers alone, the parents and students must understand the real purpose of education as interpreted today. The Student Council of Fenger High School felt the need of an organization whereby the parents and teachers could meet on fa social basis. So upon the approval of Thomas C. Hill, principal, Joseph Brack, Mayor iof Fenger, appointed Lawrence Drumheller as chairman of the committee to make arrangements for a 'preliminary meeting to be held Tuesday evening, June 11, 1929, when the Fenger Parent-Teacher Association was formed. At this meeting Mr. Henry Penn was elected temporary chairman, and Mrs. J. E. Taylor, Presi- dent of the Junior and Senior High School Coun- cil, presented and outlined the plans of the National Congress of Parents and Teachers. The second meeting was held in the small auditorium on Friday evening, June 21st, to perfect the or- ganization plans. Ar this time the following offi- cers were elected: President, Mrs. E. C. Helland, Tm first Vice-President, Mr. George Dasher, second Vice-President, Mr. J. W. Carnegie, third Vice- President, Mr. Thomas C. Hill, Secretary, Miss Marie McCutcheon, Treasurer, Mrs. C. C. Gault. Evening meetings were held until the following March when it was deemed advisable to hold the meetings in the afternoon. The association has tried to be of service to the school by contributing to the Student Aid Fund, by donations to some of the clubs, and by assisting in the endeavor to secure adequate school relief, and to support three promoting legislative bills. The faculty and stu- dents have assisted the P. T. A. with their month- ly programs, through printing, posters, Fenger News, Courier, sale of tickets, and in the recent minstrel show, making it a real Parent-Teacher Association with student participation. The Fen- ger Parent-Teacher Association solicits the inter- est and support of the whole Fenger community in its desire to be of service to its students, its school, its community. It needs the cooperation of persons interested in the welfare of the students of Fenger High School. The present officers and chairmen are President, Mrs. Peter Buikema, first Vice-President, Miss Marie McCutcheon, second Vice-President, Miss Elizabeth Campbell, third Vice-President, Mr. F. W. Schacht, Recording Secretary, Mrs. Florence Caird, Corresponding Secretary, Mrs. B. A. Beck- man, Treasurer, Mrs. Kay Main, Publicity, Mrs. John Woodward, Membership, Mrs. Geo.
