BEAT THE RECORD The picture show staff meets once a month to discuss ways and means of bettering our programs as well as assisting in the selection of the pictures. The last two times there has attendance except for one been 100 or two excused. It is unknown that a single officer has failed to be at their .post unless they have arranged for a substitute and in the last three months there have only been seven tardy marks recorded. All serve free gratis and try to do all in their power to serve efficiently. It is the hope of the management that the Scera members will respect these people in their positions often we forget to commend such unselfish service. May we too ask that friends of the staff will refrain from visiting with these officers while they are on duty. Call the next morning and they will feel free to chat with you.

B. A.

Many clubs have been formed to help the student, find his life interest and possible avocations to are for his leisure time. Mr. Fowler also emphasized that new methods of taxation are needed and with the increased price of commodities school salaries should be raised to correspond. Judge A, H. Christensen stressed the fact that now is the time for the schools to cooperate with the home and the home with the schools more than ever before. Every child should have something he can profitably do, and something to occupy his interests for during the coming years the shorter labor hours will give more time to the individual. O. H. Anderson reported that considerable work had been done on the problem of medical services for the schools and it was hoped that in the near future some constructive plan would be ready to present to the group.
