M. C. A. Tlmrsady evening at 7 :30 by the Parent-Teacher’s Association. Mrs. N. A. Archibald, president of the organization, in a few well-chosen words welcomed the assembled com pany on behalf of the association. The fathers enjoyed the fulfillment of that famous wish of Robert Burns —to see themselves as others see i them —when Mrs. J. W. Pike read an interesting composite which she had made of 400 compositions recently . written by the school children on the subject “What My Father Means to Me.” One rather amusing feature of this word-picture of the Average Concord Dad was shown in these words “My father tries to be the boss at our house but my mother won’t! let him.” In general, however the children’s papers were in more ser- i ious vein, expressing their deep love ' for and trust in their fathers. They saw him as a kind provider, educator, companion and friend. Many deplored the fact that because of the stress of these strenuous times they say all too little of their fathers. In order that the purpose and scope of the work of the association might j be clearly understood, Miss Ruth Dry ! told the assembled guests of the many 1 worth-while projects undertaken and completed by the P. T. A. since its organization in 1923. Its principal work has been the provision of a library of approximately 1,000 volumes for the use of the children, this achievement bringing Central Gram mar School to the level of a standard Grade A school in library facilities. ! They are also responsible for the pur chase of a mimeograph machine which is a great help to all the schools of the city. Recently appointed “Grade Moth ers” whose duties are to secure better attendance at meetings and further the interests of the various grades, were next introduced to the company. Miss Elizabeth Black's room won a beautiful picture for having the most parents present. j Several unusual “stunts” were of- ! sered byway of fun and recreation. ■ In a novel hand-shaking contest, Mrs. Hansel was the winner of a prize. It then became to duty of Messrs. Fuller, McDonald and Henry to make paper dresses for Mesdames A. C. Cline, B. W. Means and L. I. Beasley, and by three competent judges of the dress maker’s art, Mr. Henry’s work was adjudget the most artistic and he was j awarded a prize. The guests were next invited to enter the art-gallery on whose walls were hung portraits of the various guests made in bygone childhood days. Mrs. M. B. Fuller succeeded in iden- I tifying the largest number of the i photographs and thus won a prize. : At the close of the program delight jful refreshments were served. It is believed that this get-to-gether meeting will have good results in better informing the parents, and the public in general, of the excellent work be ing done by the Association and that its growth in the future will be great er tftnn in the past.

BUSINESS COLLEGE FOR CONCORD WILL BE REALITY SOON i Representatives From Atlan i ■ ta Business College Plan to Open Branch School in This City Soon. Representatives of the Atlanta Bus iness College, one of the best known I institutions of its kind in the South, s were in Concord Thursday conferring i w.th .ocal business men re.ative to i opening a branch of the school in ibis city. It was stated Thursday afternoon ■ by one of the representatives that the I I school wou.d be opened here in the » near future. The Atlanta Business College was » estab.khed in 1905 and was incor- [ > pointed in 1923. The college has been • opening and operating branch schoo.s ' for the past three years. Thirty-five 1 schools have been mainta.nea in Gtor i gia and Tennessee.. With.n the last > few weeks echuo s have been opened at South Boston, Virginia, aud at Kins -1 ion, New Bern and S.atesvil.e, N. C. r Both day and night sessions are ■ maintained in the branch school for a term of five months. The nighj : session is primarily for the benefit of ■ peop e w'jo work during the day, and ■ who wish to be tra.ned for promotion r or for better positions. The name i sources are offered in both the day I and night schools. i ’ Giving Redheads Their Due. The g.rl with red hair, once target I for evtry deiisive «sma boy, hascome i ,nto her own. Science and art have » at .ast rendered the.r verdict that red hair is quite the dazz.ing tuing, and a aterary critic has discovered that ; more poems ’nave been written to le., ; uair in the past decade than to all the • hundred and one shades of brown. i All of which br.ngs new responsi • bilities and duties to the fortunate i .adies who own red hair. No longer i need they ignore it or studious.y tone it down in their costume. It is theii bouuden duty now, say the scientists, i to make it a£ .um.nous and glorious as they can. i “Some shades of red hair are much ' lovelier than others, bu«. a.l of them i have great decorative possibi.ities,” says Hazei Rawson Cades in a chapter of advice to redheads pub.ished by the Woman’s Home Companion. In the past, she remarks, redheads have had tfie notion that they inns, “tone down” their hair. This is ai. wrong nowadays. Red hair shou u be made to shine for every nickel s worth of its possible brill.ance. Development of ins uttermost possl bi.itiee is .argely a co.or proposition, it seems It would be, considering the amount of co or the young lady has on hand to work with. But it’s not, as old-fashioned peop e bei.eve, a jrob.em of contrasts. The most suc cessful eystenas are worked out a.ong the lines of matching and harmoniz ing colors- If her eyes are brown, there’s no doubt at all about it in the minds of the artists and scientists. Brown, henna, rust, gold, warm biege, tan, nasturtium, maize, peach aud even ilesh are lovely backgrounds for the brown and rusty red of hair and eyes. Soft pedium greens and a certain shade of dark green are also good. Next “Floating Un.verslty” to Bar the Girls. X T T* -l_ TN.I A.* « ... .
