Tedford on Tuesday, November 7, with Mrs. A. T. Neely, president, presiding. Mrs. Nichols, who was introduc ed by Miss Juanita Hitt, HistoHan, bad as her theme “Atlanta, Geor- gia and Columbia, South Carolina, in the Path of Sherman’s March to the Sea.” She interestingly told of the horrors of the march step step, a march which covered points of personal interest to the members. This subject was receiv ed in a spirit of deep feeling. Minutes and reports were heard, and Mrs. Geneva Bicker- staff was named as chairman of special events. Mrs. Neely gave a report on the State Convention held in Char leston. She reported that two new awards had been made available this year: Dr. and Mrs. James S.

Speers Street PTA Meeting The second meeting of the Speers Street PTA was held Thursday night of last week in the school auditorium. This was the last meeting to be held in the old building. Mrs. Dawkins’ third grade class won the attendance banner with 27 parents present. After the business session, the speaker for the evening, Mrs. Frances McHugh, was introduced. Her speech was entitled “Parent hood in the 60’s.” She stressed that future adulthood is a product of childhood. By giving a child room to become himself, this prod uct will ripen and become useful, she said. She also stated that the greatest threat from communism is the apathy toward work. “If too much is expected of a child, he becomes discouraged, but if too little is expected, he loses inter ests,” she said. She believed that a child should work toward his own goals, as accomplisments and achievement take w’ork. After the meeting was adjourn ed, the parents visited in their children’s rooms. It was noticed that many of the parents gathered around the table where PTA mem bership dues were being collected. Those who have not joined the PTA are urged to do so, and to support the program of education for their children.
