Olive Hill PTA Reviews Year’s Accomplishments % The Olive Hill P. T. A. met last Friday evening at the Com munity building. There were a bout a hundred and fifty people present who prior to the meet, ing enjoyed a delectable picnic supper together. After the feast, Mrs. W. C. Warren called the meeting to or der and recognized the invited guests, Miss Lake Allen and Miss Velma Beam, and members of the school committee, Messrs. John Brewer, M. T. Williams and Guy R. Clayton. Mr. Young then read several verses from the second chapter of Timothy, his key verse being “Study to show thyself ap proved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth,” which he discussed read ily. All chairmen of gave favorable reports of the year’s work. Mr. Young, histor ian, brought out the main objec ' tiVe of the P. T. A. “to bring in closer relationship the home and the school,” and he stated that this objective had been realized as never before, and, as a result, more had been accomplished for the school than heretofore. At the very beginning, a membership drive was sponsored which bro ught in many new members, and pradtically doubled the former membership. The school’s accomplishments for the year have been the in stallation of a cafeteria, making complete payment on a Ditto ma chine amounting to a hundred dollars, and recently added ath letic equipment for all grades, these things having been paid for and leaving a small surplus on hand. Ways or securing funds have been by serving meals to va rious organizations, giving a fac ulty - community play, individual donations, sponsoring plays and a Chinese checker party. The ob jectives set for next year are to improve the library by increasing number of books available to children, school grounds will be made more beautiful, and health findings of this year will be con tinued with improvement being made where it is possible. Officers elected for the new year are as follows: President, Mr?. W. C. Pulliam, Vice-Presi 4ept, Mrs. W. C. Warern, Secre tary, Mrs. W. C. Winstead, and Treasurer, Mrs. Fletcher Carver. The P. T. A. regrets to lose Mrs. Warren as president because she has accomplished so much, but with Mrs. Pulliam and Mrs. War ren as co-workers, there is great hope for the coming year. Other officers are (1) Summer Round- Up, Mr. Young, Chr., Mr. Walter Clayton, Mrs. Clark Neathery; Program Committee, Mrs. Carl Winstead, Chr., Mrs. Maurice Daniel, Miss Mary Kelly, Mrs. M. T.

A. as a token of appreciation lor the year’s work. o Final Rites For Longhurst Woman (Continued From Front Page) mother, Mrs. C. C. Blanks, four brothers, Bennie, K.

Nine Month’s Term Discussed (Continued From Front Page) saying that the board was in fav or of better schools, but had no definite opinion about a nine month term R. L. Harris was given the question “Do you think our tax rate for the ninth month would be too excessive for the benefits obtained?” His reply was that the tax rate would be about twenty cents on the hundred dol lar valuation for the district, and that, the people of the district would have to answer the ques tion as to whether that was too high or not. Mrs. T. C. Wagstaff stated that she did not think the ninth month would cause children from the country to leave before the school term was finished in order to attend to farm duties. S. G. Winstead said that he be lieved that children who attend ed a nine month school term had an advantage over those who had only eight months. After these talks the meeting was thrown into a general discus sion. Questions were asked and answered and many present ex pressed themselves as being in favor of the extra month. ;—o Cluster Springs Banquet Is Held Hotel Roxboro dining room was the scene of a colorful banquet last Friday night as juniors and seniors of Cluster Springs high school held their annual party. .
