THE CARDINAL - 1932 29 OUI' P. T. A. Looking back over our P. T. A. meetings this year, we recall many inter- esting programs. We remember a fine talk by Dr. Van Vlack on Americanization. The good doctor is an ardent American Legion worker and a profound believer in pre- paredness and we were so glad to hear him state the other side of the argument when our minds are so filled with the thoughts of Peace and Disarmament. Our Christmas party under the able direction of Mrs. Corrie Wicks Bab- cock was a great success. Both parents and children enjoyed it immensely. Mrs. Ray Johnson and Mrs. Van Vlack directed the interesting discussion at our Question Box meeting. They convinced us that there was certainly more than one way to bring up our children. When we look at them with their varied and diverse personalities we are glad that parents nowadays try to fit the upbringing to the child rather than insist on every youngster doing the same thing in the same way and along the same groove. No doubt we parents may learn something when we get together next year in our Adult Study Group under the leadership of Mrs. Edward Bootey-we have great hopes. A very beautiful evening was spent with the pictures of George Wash- ington and his family posed for us by members of the D. A. R. with a most interesting talk by Roland K. Mason. We were sorry judge Ottaway was unable to speak to us at the March meeting as planned, but Mrs. Claude Tarbox, our District President, gave us an interesting talk about the inner workings of the P. T. A. Mr. Claude Dye of Fredonia spoke to us at our April meeting on That Teen Age Boy of Yours. He made us feel that he knew his subject and we hope that he can be with us again. We must not forget Mrs. Blair's beautiful music during the evening. It left nothing to be desired. Since the May meeting is really the last regular meeting of the year, it was very fitting to have at this time the privilege of hearing the Mission Choir and Orchestra directed by Miss Ebba Goranson. The speaker of the evening was our much beloved Dr. jane Greeley who spoke on Citizenship in the Home. The june meeting will be in the form of a Music Festival with Miss Flohr in chargeg many grade children and High School students will take part. We feel that we have learned and accomplished many things this past year and we are looking forward to doing great things in the future. MISS GLADYS WEISS Secretary P. T. A.

28 THE CARDINAL - 1932 Domestic Science Department Our new addition brought to us a very popular department which is used incessantlyg it is the Domestic Science Department. We have two large roomsg one a kitchen in which all of the cooking is done, and the other a dining room. Very appetizing odors often come from the kitchen and are carried to all parts of the building. Our kitchen is very modernly equipped with an electric re- frigerator, four gas stoves, and a row of sinks and cupboards through the middle of the room. In addition we have a china closet in which we keep our dishes. In the room used for a dining room we have new chairs and tables. We have had a visitor for the last few days, who by name was Mickey Mouse. He was our mascot but just as soon as Miss Perkins had built him a home and bed, he ran away. Everyone feels quite downhearted about losing our little pet. In our election of officers, Robert Klock was elected presidentg Betty jane Vernon vice president and Charlottle Klock, secretary. The classes gave a chapel program the 19th of Februaryg the cast for which was picked from all classes. QN. B. We are all rejoicing now as our Mickey Mouse has come back to us., C. K., '35 SEWING DEPARTMENT In january our new Sewing Department started classes under the capable leadership of Miss Perkins. The department is cleverly furnished with every article necessary for a perfect sewing room. The students have made many useful personal articles including pajamas and slips. The class has been a complete success and we hope the desire for sewing in our High School will increase. B I '34 . .,
