'Mr. Baird acted as temporary chairman chair-man and conducted the meeting. Principal Joseph spoke. He emphasized, em-phasized, particularly, getting the cooperation co-operation of the parent.

The rest of the meeting was devoted de-voted to reorganization. Mr. Sloan gave some encouraging status of the school and encouraged the effecting of an organization. A great deal of interest and competition com-petition was revealed in the selecting of the new president. Mrs. J. R M,urdoclc was selected first, but owing ow-ing to home duties, she declined. D. N. Hickman was finally selected. A number of people expressed themselves them-selves as to the benefits of such an organization. Mr. Hickman was asked to select his workers, and arrange for a second sec-ond meeting to perfect the organization, organi-zation, at his earliest convenience We feel that this is a splendid beginning be-ginning of a splendid movement. Mr. Hickman is very capable and enthusiastic enthus-iastic and with the co-operation of the patrons, parents and teachers of this community, great things can be accomplished. For we feel that Mil-ford's Mil-ford's greatest asset is her boys and .girls and anything that can promote their general good, is worth the combined com-bined efforts of any community. |
