Demolay Chapter
Host At Cookout
The Boone Chapter of Demo
lays held a cookout at the Park
way School, Saturday, Aug. 26.
The affair was a going-away

it soon began to spread. Led by
Dad Land, as he was called,
and sponsored by the Masons,
Demolay set up its rules and
started chapters in other states.
It soon became known for its
public service projects and
gained respect as a major con

juvenile delinquency.
Demolays are found in almost
every country of the world, per
forming helpful projects and
being of public assistance.

PTA Schedules A Count-In
Every child counts, with the
PTA. That’s the reason the Na
tional Congress of Parents and
Teachers is planning a special
“count-in” of their parents and
teachers as schools reopen this
fall.
“The PTA believes that every
child must be provided with
what he needs to grow up
healthy, secure, well-educated
and useful to his community,"
says Mrs. Irvin E. Hendryson.
of Albuquerque, N. Mex., pres
ident of the National PTA.
“To help secure these rights
Every single child counts, with
the PTA—a nationwide organi
zation of volunteers concerned
for children and for the parents
and teachers who nurture and
educate them.
for all children,” she declares,
“the PTA counts on every citi
zen to work at expanding the
opportunities of all America’s
children.
Parent - teacher associations
(PTA’s), organized in the 50
states, the District of Columbia
and schools for American de
pendents overseas, begin enroll
ing new members with the first
PTA meeting of the school term
and usually concentrate on
membership enrollment during
October.
This year, they will give par
ticular attention to reaching
parents in low-income areas.
One of the many valuable
services any PTA provides, Mrs
Hendryson believes, is “the op
portunity for parents and teach
era to know each other in a social
situation. They are the people
most important in a child's
world, and the child can’t help
benefiting from their friendly
collaboration.
“In poor areas, especially,’’
she notes, “this friendly relation
between home arid school is of
particular value because it’s
where children most need help.”
PTA’s can work to improve
educational opportunity, to pro
tect dependent or delinquent
children, to improve health care
and to provide the leadership for
vibrant community programs
that will serve all children, Mrs.
Hendryson points out.
Because every child counts
with the PTA, its activities
cover all the varied needs of
children—for kindergartens, ad
equately financed schools, well
trained Jeachers, along with the
proper qourishment, good health
and favorable emotional climate
in which to learn from them.
“We need many members to
cover such wide-ranging pro
grams,” says Mrs. Hendryson.
“So our pak this fall is to per
suade every parent and every
teacher that he too counts, with
the PTA.”
As PTA’s start their “count
ins” this fall, Mrs. Hendryson is
urging them to demonstrate that
“PTA is where the action is.”
She has suggested, for exam
ple, that local units take the lead
in sponsoring “cultural happen
ings” for youngsters. Some
branches of the National PTA,
she notes, have developed art
mobiles, comparable to the
popular bookmobiles, which
bring traveling exhibits of paint
ing and sculpture to school chil
dren in remote areas. Other
PTA’s regularly sponsor musical
concerts or provide tickets for
theatrical productions to chil
dren who would not otherwise
attend them.
“With something as simple as
a folk festival,” says the PTA’s
national president, “we can do
much to enrich the lives of chil

Albuquerque, N. Met., is shown with her daughter, Mrs. Philip S.
