(Mrs. C. C. King, Reporter!
The September meeting of the P. T. A
held at the school on Tuesday,
September 26, with a large attendance,
quite a number of the faculty being
present.
The report given by Miss Caroline
Wooten, Treasurer, was very encourag¬
ing. While no great effort has been
made to secure funds during the sum¬
mer, the books show a steady income
from various sources, so that the or¬
ganization begins the new school year
with a nice sum on hand.
Mrs. T. G. Callaway, Thrift Chair¬
man, stated that her department would
have to give up their idea of putting
a banking system in the school, as none
of the banks were willing just at this
time to give the necessary co-opera¬
tion. This is a great disappointment to
the P. T. A., for it was one of the
most cherished plans.
Mrs. J. E. Phillips, Chairman of Hy¬
giene, reported arrangements were be¬
ing made with the state Board of Health
for a clinic for the eyes, ears, nose and
throat. The date will be announced
later.

been arranged into two groups, one lor
children under ten years, the other for
those over ten.

Facts
About Child-Birth
A N eminent physician has
shown to thousands of expect
K ant mothers just how to be free
from dread, and from much of
the suffering which many mothers
experience for months, right up to
the moment when the Little One ar¬
rives 1
Mrs. Wm. Washington, 107 Louise
Ave., Nashville, Tenn., says: "There
is positively no woman on earth that
would be without ‘Mother’s Friend’
during expectancy if she only knew
the value of comfort.’’
“Mother's Friend” is externally ap¬
plied to the region of the abdomen,
back and hips. It relieves the ten¬
sion on nerves and ligaments as month
follows month. Finally, it makes
child-birth a joy instead of a pain¬
ful dread.

mothers and grandmothers did. Don’t
wait, start today, and meanwhile
write to Bradfleld Regulator Co.,
BA-47, Atlanta, Ga., for a free won¬
derful book containing information
