P. T. A. Notes
The ParenWTeacher Association
will meet next Thursday, November
18, at the senior high school. The
$he curtains were drawn bac\k to
show the children assembled on the
•stage, Ann McCarroll stepped for-
ward to announce the first number,
a prayer song, "Father We Thank
Thee." Ann continued to act as mas-
ter of ceremohies, called for and then
lead the children in singing, "God
Bless America," and "The Turkey
and the Pumpkin." Ann McCluney
recited the story of Isabella Anna-
bella Clarabella Sweet. This part of
the program was concluded by a song
in Spanish, "Adios, Darnas."
What the school can do about ju-
venile delinquency was the subject
of Mr. Stuver's talk. "An Ounce of
prevention," said he, "is said to be
worth a pound of cure; but many
pounds of cure for crime may not
avail for an ounce of carelessness in
dealing wtih our youth." Principal
Stuver set up a three-point program
for the school in trying to avoid
serious behavior problems of the
teen-age iboys and girls. This includ.
ed a close study of children and their
problems, not only in school but out
of school, a better teacher-pupil re-
lationship, and more interest in the
problem on the part of parents and
non-school agencies like the service
clubs and Scouts.
During the business session Mrs.
Isgate, chairman of the membership
drive reported that with donations
and memberships the drive resulted
in a collection of better than $110.
Reports from the four Hallowe'en
parties sponsored by the association
were given. The senior high school
party at the gymnasium was well at-
tended and enjoyed very much. An
outstanding feature was the party-
games led by Mrs. Jim Miadden, and
I there were more cookies and punch
(than the guests could consume. Mrs.|
Bolding, Mrs. DaV|idson and Mrs.
Reed were the hostesses.
Mr. Stuver reported a large and
hilarious gathering at the junior|
hign party at the city park. About
one hundred-fifty were present with
lots of fun and refreshments.
ijne little loliss, who had their
party from 5 to 7:30 in the basement
of apples and doughnuts washed
down by orange crush. Mrs. Pope
Guinn and Mrs. Persons were the
hostesses and were assisted by Mrs.
Stuver and Mlrs. Goff.
Mrs. McLeod's room had the most
mothers present and won the prize
of $2.00 to be spent on books. The
senior high won the prize once and
the elementary school once. The jun-
ior says that they want their moth-
ers out next Thursday so that they
tcan get the prize.
News that the Business and Pro-
fessional Women have voted to as-
sist the P. T. A. in sponsoring the
Girl Scouts, was happily received.
Mrs. McCarroll's Spanish class has
written a play in Spanish and is pre-
senting it in class Friday morning,

enough gasoline to fill his essential

In order to check this, the recent
regulation requires consumers to en-
dorse their gasoline coupons a"S soon
as they receive them. All coupons in
nation books must be endorsed at
once. Previously it was all right if
tne coupons were endorsed by/the op-
erator of the vehicle at the time_ he
received his gasoline. The new meth-
od will mean less inconvenience for
the motorist as w611 as the filling
station operator. More important, it
is expected that under the i3w meth-
od OPA will secure closer to 100 per

FIRE CHIEF GASOLINE
When buying gasoline Ask for Fire Chief,
which has proven to be Outstanding for both
Mileage and Economy.
Forrest & Williams
The following procedure for en-|0f said railroad, said tract being a
dorsing the gasoline coupons is very j part of the 85 acre tract sold to C.
simple and is a protection to both
dealer and consumer:
All coupons A, B, C, D, and T .must
be endorsed on the face at all times
with the license and name of state
in which the car is registered.
All coupons B, C, D and T issued j
for fleet passenger cars, buses, taxi- J
cabs, ambulances and funeral cars,;
delivery trucks, official vehicles,
state, federal, county, or others that)
are considered official vehicles must]
also be endorsed at time of issuance
with the fleet or official designation
instead of the license number.
Coupon E and R issued for non-
highway use are to be endorsed with
the name and address of person to
whom they are issued.
Here is how the endorsement helps
stop the black imarket. First of all,
few people will want to buy coupons
if they have to endorse them.
OPA investigators who check the
coupons at a filling station know
that if unendorsed coupons are on
hand, the filling station is a violator.
If all honestly used coupons are en-
dorsed then the unendorsed coupons,
which are generally stolen or coun-
terfeit, are easily detected.
OPA investigators can_ also check
op the endorsements on the coupons
with the car owners whose license
numbers appear. In this way they are
often able to find out whether the
endorsements have been forged.
Such a forgery is a violation of the
OPA regulations and generally shows
that the filling station dealer has
been selling gasoline without collect-
ing coupons.
Coupon endorsement is also im-
portant as a way of checking coun-
terfeiting. Motorists will hesitate
about buying counterfeit coupons if
