What tales these tiny flakes might tell, Of strife and pain and joy as well, As they brush against the tvindows bright And dance away gaily, into the night. Christmas Eve is here again I Jane Detro, High Nine. [15]

In the light summer night, when the air is clear, In the cold winter nights, when the wind is drear, They guard their flocks with the tenderest care, The Shepherds of Bethlehem.

GARFIELD PARENT-TEACHER ASSOCIATION The most important phase of the Parent-Teacher Association is child welfare. In order to accomplish the best results, it is necessary to have a closer understanding among children, teachers and parents. The Gar- field Parent-Teacher Association opened its Fall term with a reception, welcoming old members and honoring mothers of new pupils — to acquaint them with the work of the Parent-Teacher Association. At the monthly meetings, programs showing the different depart- ments of school activity are presented. Juvenile Protection, Safety, and Student Aid Chairmen are constantly working toward peace and security for children. A parent education class is being held at the new branch- ' library, under the direction of Dr. Edith Bryan. Books have been bought for the school library from the S 50.00 raised by the Mothers ' Candy Sale on Library Day. Proceeds from a successful Food Sale and from the Community Play, Rip Van Winkle, helped balance the budget so that a substantial sum could be paid toward the Garfield Band Uniform Fund. These lovely orange and white capes were purchased, last year, by the cooperation of the Parent-Teacher Association, the Dads ' Club and the Students. The present officers of the Association are : President . . Mrs. A. B. Wuxoughby Treasurer .... Mrs. Albert Crum ist Vice President . . Mrs. M. C. Hrx Historian .... Mrs. F. A. Beauchamp 2nd Vice President Mrs. H. M. Williams Auditor Mrs. H. H. Hadley Recording Secretary . Mrs. C. E. Hunter Delegate to Council . Mrs. F. F. Cooper Corresponding Secretary . Mrs. C. Z Yost Nancy Willoughby, Low Nine. ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ THE DADS OF GARFIELD We are proud of the Dads of Garfield, not just because they ' re our dads, but because they are, also, a vital part of our school community. Who helped buy the stage curtains and band uniforms? The dads! Who gave us a grand party? The dads! And what a party it was! The mothers were allowed to come. Prizes were awarded for the lightest, the heaviest, the tallest and the shortest father and child. The Brodies won the height title. Next semester the club will sponsor a theatre party at the Oaks Theatre. The tentative program for the remainder of the year will be a series of lectures grven by members of the faculties of the University of California and Berkeley High School. The subject will be Preparing for an Occupa- tion. The officers of the Dads this year are: President ... Dr. E. P. Rankin Vice President . E. R. Axdrews Secretary S. J. Lelaxd Treasurer ... J. P. Dunnigax Eltox Andrews, High Nine. [16]
