The Central Parent-Tencher association, organized in April, 1914. is not a student extracurricular organization. When we think of the services rendered to the school, little do ■we realize what work they efficiently and quietly do. Mrs. Harry Bennett was elected the first president, and she was capably assisted by Mrs. Gwen Pence, first vice president: Reverend S. M. Davidian. second vice president: Mrs. Earl Bowman, recording: Miss Ruth Chiles, cor- responding secretary: and Carl H. Jones, treasurer. Why do parents and teachers meet in Central high school. These meet- ings arc being planned to promote in the citizen of tomorrow and welfare of our young people through closer relation and mutual cooperation between par- ents and teachers. Through the efforts of the Parent-Teachers association, a new curtain was purchased and a hospital room was furnished. By means of a radio review and Vodville Style show sufficient funds were raised. Another activity un- der the supervision of the association is the annual art exhibit and Pie festival in May. This year the association sponsored Cameron Beck, former personnel direc- tor on the New York Stock exchange. He addressed the students and parents of Central on Leadership and said. What you are to be you are now be- coming . For 1940 the following officers were elected: Judge Raymond Smith, president: Mrs. Frank McClain, first vice president: Mrs. Walter Noble, second ice president: Mrs. Edward Myers, recording secretary: Miss Idetta Lutz, cor- responding secretary: Mr. Stanton Steiner. treasurer. The desire of the Parent-Teachers ' association is to solve the problems that relate to the welfare of the child in home, school, and community. Marcella Roberts ' 40 fifteen
