Council ofPilt Meets In Greenville Greenville, Oct. 1?A very en thusiastic meeting of the Pitt Coun-1 ty Council of Parents and Teachers I was held at Sheppard Memorial li brary last jPriday morning at ten thirty o'clock. The meeting was call ed to order by the President, Mrs. J. C. Parker, of Fountain, and then turned over to the pro^tam commit tee, Mrs. Ed Batchelor, of Greenville. The program began with a prayer by Mrs. J. H. Waldrop, followed by a very beautiful solo by Mrs. Helene Higgs Kirkpatrick. The speaker, Mrs. D; M. Clark, was then introduc ed to the group by Mrs. Batchelor. Mrs. Clark's theme was, the crying need for better moral'training, better play facilities, stricter attention paid to proper food for the children in the elementary grades of our schools in Pitt County. Mrs. Clark drew very aptly her illustrations of larger amounts of money spent .in the city i .of Greenville for so many recrea tional and civic projects, yet not one playground has been provided for the email children through the element tary grades. She .vividly portrayed the not impossible ideal of supervis ; ed playgrounds fori the child through t the years most important m deveiop l ing a foundation of fine ideals mad dm child out of evory too chil't? . undernourished. This T*? . SO often to lb* p?iw?* uot taurmnf . orc^whrtlwrtkiforf?"^;1, able for the oMld's growth de velopment, rather-thm the inebihty to furnish food. Our democracy needs strong children mentally, mor ally, and physically. Our work as Parents and Teachers is to see that , our conditions in our own communi ty ere adequate and useful. A discussion of adequate play ground space was taken up by the group. Only three schools out of the group felt that they had adequate playground space, for their children. Some were pitifully meager. All agreed that Parents' and" Teachers Organizations would do all in their power to relieve these conditions. Another problem was discussed. Who of the children1 should be given free lunches from the school lunch rooms? All schools seem to have the problem of those parents who are able financially to furnish adequate hxnches, but send the child to school without providing a lunch for him. j All agreed that the child must be fed. Some very good suggestions were given to relieve this situation, in our school luschrooms. 1 A short business session was held, at the end of which Mrs. Fuson, our State Director of Parents and Teach ers gave us helpful suggestions, and announced that the District Meeting would be held in Greenville on No vember thirteenth. This wiU bring Parents and Teachers from .all of Eastern North Carolina to our town. These District Meetings are sensa tional in the reports each organiza tion brings of the work accomplished each year for the good of the chil dren. Pitt County Parents and Teachers would like to have a good number present at this meeting to greet these people, at that time. The Pitt County Council of Pa rent? and Teachers adjourned to meet again April 22, 1941.
