This is an answer one of onr history students gare to a his tory question one day last week. If a good definition is foifnd please send it to B. H. 8. History Class, In care of 8. T.

George Poller doesn't like to sit In the study hall as well as he used to. We'd like to know why?

A. opened its regular meeting Thursday night, October 11 at 7:30, by singing America. The pastor of the Bunn Baptist church, Rev. C. E Crawford led the devotional prayer. Following the devotional the busi ness of the meeting was transacted. Mr. 8.' L. Bowen presided in the ab sence of the President, Mrs. C. C. Pippin. The roll was called and the m<nutes of the past meetng were read and affirmed, Three new mem bers were added to the roll. The chairman of the financial -committee reported that several plays and an operetta wo^ld be presented In the near future as a source of entertain ment and as a means for collection of some needed Binds. Part of these funds will p? used In an effort to put the elementary school of Bpnn on the accredited list, which Is the main objective of the P. T. A. and Bunn School for the year 1929-30. 8ome of the* grade mothers were listed by the teachers. The list Is Incomplete. Look for them In next weeks Issue of this paper In the Bt|nn school news. After the business had been trans ected. the program committee^ Mrs. H. D. O'QuInn, chairman, took charge. The following nunlbers were render ed by a part of the 8enlor class: "Kentucky Babe", and "When My Breams Come True". The songs were enjoyed by ,tho audience. ? Mrs. O'Quinn* announced that Bo wen jrould Introduce the speaWw entBif"'*Mr.1 lid* eh said'that of the evening: Sujpt & L. Best was to speak to us, but could not. Therefore Mr. W. R. Mills, Supt. of the Mills High School at Louisburg kindly consented to tM?k for Mr. Beat . The theme of Mr. Mill's speech wot how the P. T. A. may improve the attendance of students. He told us that Vt was imperative to have better attendance in our schools since the North Carolina General Assembly had Increased the number of students per teacher. The number of teachers in any school is determined by its aver age dally attendance. Mr. Mills went on to say that it is a waste of money to provide for a child in school life and then not have the child in school. It is a waste IB equipment and in the teaching staff. Poor-attendance is generally the rea son why a child is not promoted. Then he gave some suggestions as to' how teachers might Improve at tendence. First the teacher must make school life attractive, make the boys and girls feel that there Is some thing to school life. Mr. Mills gave some figures which proved that attendants in school is worth while. The boy who drops out of school while he is In the seventh grade, taken from an average of about 100,000 boys, earns about It?!000 in a lifetime. Those who finish high school earn about twice that much. Those that finish college about twice as much as the high schol graduate. School educates for citlienshlp. There is something about the life of a school trained boy which enables him to overcome many temptations. Here Mr. Mills cited the Prisons where many boys as crlmnals had very lit tle schooling. Agalq he said "Citizenship can boost school attendence" as the people of the community boost, nqt brag. Be optimistic, you the people of the com munity have your money and your children in school, why not talk for , your investment Instead of against ltT Lastly he said "make your school program attractive .for the children' Trade at the little store where ex pense is lower and prices will be lower, F.
