HEALTH IS TOPIC
- AT P. I A. MEET
Committees For Year
Also Appointed At
Highlands
j Health was the topic of dis
cussion at the October meeting
of the Highlands Parent-Teach
er association, held Tuesday of
last week.
The meeting also was mark
ed by the appointment by Mrs.
J. M. Valentine, president, of
standing committees for the
year.
In the course of the discus
m Jjlfin of health, it was brought
x>ut that health goes hand in
hand with home-making, and
since the equipping of a home
economics room at the school Is
proposed, the two subjects came
in for joint discussion.
Mrs. Kathryn Baker, teacher
of health in the seventh and
eighth grades, told of the work
her students are doing, with
particular emphasis on the sev
en basic foods. Mrs. Carolyn
Nail, who heads' the newly or
ganized home economics depart
ment, told of her work and the
difficulty being experienced be
cause of lack of equipment. She
added that she is delighted at
the Interest the girls are taking
In the work. As a result of this
Interest, a number of girls
modeled attractive skirts they
had made.
Miss Louise Swann, assistant
state supervisor of home eco
nomics, attended the meeting
at the request of Mrs. Nail, and
said that the size of the room
and number of pupils would de
termine the number of units
needed, and that, equipment,
when bought, should be of
standard make. For the present,
Miss Swann urged the accep
tance and use of anything that
would help to carry on the work.
When asked if the state would
-?? - help furnish equipment, Miss
Swan said "not unless the
school has a full-time vocation
al department, with as many as
100 pupils", and added that the
equipment would have to be
furnished by the local school.
Miss Swann said also that
she would meet with Mrs. Nail
and help her with any plans,
' and that later Mrs. Nail could
pass the plans on to the P. T. A.
