i ' if - 52 The SCRAPPER South Side Parent-Teacher Association During the year 1937-38, the South Side Parent-Teacher Association did excellent worik. for the student body. The associa- tion contributed S5170 to student aid. S25 was raised through a school picture show to aid underprivileged boys, and' several skating parties were given, the proceeds to go to the school library. The Parent-Teachers held their annual visiting day, thus giving the parent an opportunity of seeing their children in the class room. In December the teachers were complimented with a tea, and Mrs. Cooney and Mrs. Gnuse presided over the tea table. Each teacher and honor guest was presented with a corsage suggestive of the Christmas season. An outstanding program was given in March for Father's night. The boys and girls glee clubs, the R. O. T. C., and the boys' quartet, provided the entertainment. There were nearly three hun- dred present, including one hundred fathers. The Parent-Teachers have lent their support to the Girl Reserves, Y. W. C. A., the Red Cross, Spanish War Veterans, and many other worth while organi- zations. They helped the Glee Club raise money for par t expenses to Nashville. They donated 315 to the R. O. T. C. sponsors for capes. A beautiful new school flag of maroon and gold satin, carrying the bull dog, emblem of South Side, was ready for the R. O. T. C. com- petitive drill. The orchestra will be entertained by the Parent- Teachers in appreciation of their playing at each monthly meeting. The senior class also will be entertained by the Parent-Teachers with a picnic at Maywood. A three-day Home Management Course was held in ihe South Side Auditorium, averaging one hundred and fifty in attendance daily. Mrs. Effie McClanahan, assisted Miss Wanda Goodhue, pre- pared and served many attractive and tasty dishes. Recipe books were presented to each lady attending, and many attendance prizes were given. The cooking classes were invited by the P. T. A. to attend this school. A Cotton Carnival float, in the electrical parade, was fbonsor- ed and fourteen of South Side's prettiest girls represented the dif- ferent industries depicted on the float. The year's Work will be completed with a picnic at Riverside for the officers and chairmen. The senior class wishes to express appreciation to Mrs. Mc- Gonagill and her Workers for all that the association has done for the school. The students are particularly indebted to Mrsi. Mc- Gonagill for her ability to foresee school problems and for her sympathy and understanding in helping to solve them.
