F.T.A. is a na- tional organization which grew out of the Horance Mann Centennial in 1937 when it was established by the N.E.A. QNational Ed- ucation Associationh Assembly. The purpose of our club is: 1. To encourage young people to cultivate in themselves the qualities of personality and character which are the foundations of suc- cessful teaching. 2. To acquaint young people with the inspiring story of the schools, the part free schools have played in the development of our democratic way of life, the heroic pioneer- ing associated with their establishment and expansion. 3. To provide young people with the specific information about opportunities in the various fields of education. Mr. Tomaszewski is our noteworthy club advisor. The acquaintance of F.T.A. in our school will give us the opportunity to develop a growing, active, and profitable club. F.T.A. is a nationwide movement to which any student may be proud to belong.
